Wow, it was so difficult to WRITE this tutorial!! I didn't have the vocabulary, but I did the best I could

I'm not a super-expert on this, but I've seen a lot of attempts and always the same mistake: trying to make the guitar with your bare hands. It's not impossible to do it perfectly in this way, but I think it's a LOT of times more difficult.

Also, I don't like how silver clay looks for the details, specially when you're making a silver guitar and you can't clearly differentiate the colors, like in the Stump-O-Matic.

So I hope someone finds it useful

At long last, I've made a tutorial on making fancy pens! My style isn't the cheap version of just warping a pen in clay. This design allows control over the thickness of your pen, as well as freelance with your own design. Also, the design also allows you to easily replace your ink if/when it runs out, so you don't have to worry about your fancy pen being temporary.

For those who try this, please show me your finished pieces please! -^^-

Where did you get your mold?
[link]
MiniatureSweet on Etsy. You can make your own, but if you are like me and cannot get mold putty in your area you can buy them online.

Can I make my own molds?

Of course~ I don't have a place around here that sells mold putty, but most Micheal's craft stores should sell it. It runs under the brand name of Amazing Mold Putty. It can be pretty expensive, but you can make a lot of molds with it. I would suggest buying the putty with a coupon (Micheal's almost always has one in the Sunday papers).

What all can I use molds for?

"Food (Chocolate, Hard Candy, Butter, Ice Cream, Fudge, Fondant, Ice, Gelatin, Marzipan, Candy Clay, Gum Paste, Royal Icing, Gummi Bears, Poured Sugar, Pastillage, Nougat, Cheese, Pate, Tallow, Edible Cake Decorations and more), Plaster, Artist Clay, Wax, Cement, Casting Resins, Polymer Clay, Melt and Pour Soap, Low Melt Metals, Precious Metal Clay, Candles, Hot and Cold Processed Soap, Hot Melt Glue, and more..."

Whew. Copied + pasted that from the person I bought it from, but I think you get the idea. Just remember that if you use clay on your mold you cannot use it again for anything food related.

Is it safe to freeze it?

Yep

Can I use hot stuff on it?

I would say always make sure to ask the person you are buying a mold from or read what the instructions on your mold putty says. Mine can stand temps up to 450 degrees F, but I don't know if all molds can stand temps like that.

Can I bake it in the mold?

I believe so. o-o I am actually not 100% sure. I was told you can, but I have never tried it myself.

Can I clean these?

Yeppers! You can handwash it with warm soap and water if clay gets stuck in it. DO NOT use a dishwasher.

My clay will not come out even if I freeze is! D:

Try dusting a tiny bit of cornstarch or baby powder in the mold before you put the clay in. Your clay may just be really sticky the powders will help keep it from sticking.

I have a question about...

Feel free to ask it! Unless I went over it in the artist comments I would be more than happy to ask it [Or if I wasn't clear enough in this short FAQ feel free to ask for clarification].

Can I use this tut on my site/blog?

Feel free to, but all I ask is that you do two things : 1.) Tell/Ask me first 2.) Link back to this tut or my dA page

You spelled "skjdkaj" wrong! You made a typo!

Doesn't surprise me.. I'm human. I make mistakes. Whoops!

Can you make a tut about...?

Depends. Send me a note and we can talk about it.

Fairly easy tutorial for swirls/waves using polymer clay. Just wanted to put something out that may interest some of you. It's okay to have a ton of lint like I do, provided you plan to paint the daylights out of it!


Any other tuts you guys may want to see?

I had an order of glass bottles that came in a while ago and didn't know what to do with them until I saw someone was selling a mini moss plant in a bottle, so I decided to use the idea but with origami roses instead :]
