Hi! Now I am trying to make something out of polymer clay. I have always wanted to try polymer clay since a long time ago because there were a lot of consideration such as expensive blocks of polymer clays, the fact that it has to be burnt on the oven and expensive tools. However I couldn't wait any longer to give it a try. Since my university thingy has done this semseter and now I can stay at my house (beside internship job that I'm doing on work days), I taught that now is the perfect time to make polymer clay creation.
I bought my clays online. the brand that I am using is Sculpey. The price is more expensive than the clay I used before (Amos Soft Clay). This Sculpey cost 36k rupiah each. I tried Sculpey at first because they are softer than the other polymer clay such as Fimo. Using Sculpey would help me to adapt from soft clay to polymer clay. And Sculpey is a bit cheaper than Fimo. Fimo is around 41-45k. Well like the older says you got price, you got thing, actually Fimo has better quality. I did a research on polymer clay, they said Sculpey is more fragile and got browning if overheated. Well that are so much true. I will share you my Sculpey polymer clay creation here:
This is Molang, a white rabbit character from Japan.
Molang was my first creation of polymer clay.
I love this charm soooo much. However right now it has
yellowed a bit I think because I put too much gloss. There must be
something, maybe the brush wasn't clean enough.
These are my other creations of polymer clay.
A rabbit tsum-tsum, panda, and rabbit.
I really love how my polymer clay turns out!
It was a bit fragile, I dropped the panda one and one of the ear was broken, however I think Sculpey is good enough for beginner.
I will keep updating my polymer clay
See you soon!

(PS : Next post I will share you my burned clay :( :( make sure you read it too!!
