In 2005, when I switched over to polymer clay for the heads, I did do some polymer hands, but that was short-lived.<br />2. After painting my figures, I put a wash of brown paint over them, and when dry, I gently sand them. <br />Best,<br />tomTom Haneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03956426535653463260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6563722744430673715.post-2546523624696429522018-03-19T05:37:45.909-04:002018-03-19T05:37:45.909-04:00Hi Tom, first let me say how much I enjoy your wor...Hi Tom, first let me say how much I enjoy your work. You definitely have your own unique style - I love it! I have 2 questions if I may. The first is do you carve the hands for your figures from wood or do you use polymer clay? Secondly, I note that you achieve a kind of crackled/antique finish to the painted faces of your figures; how do you achieve that?<br /><br />Kind regards,<br />EddieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053097946614896911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6563722744430673715.post-60069808774092149222013-11-03T18:18:01.285-05:002013-11-03T18:18:01.285-05:00Thanks Len.

I was going to ask where the fence idea came from, it is so unique, but you answered it. I love those moments of out of the box inspiration.Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13204206716673801806noreply@blogger.com
