Hi Nadiia...I see one of my questions answered already but I'd also like to ask how you keep your figures so clean. I'm having a very hard time with tiny airborne lint getting on my figures. I'm working on a bride and groom right now and I have to paint the bride because of too much lint.

also, is that copper wire?

Your work is 2nd to none. Absolutely amazing! Thank you for posting the videos and I hope you can do more for us. i love watching you work.

@salmalou Hi Sally and Thank you!I Answer to your question is added to the "part 1" description

Ohhh. Because I tried my first sculpture with Sculpey and a few forums suggested that I should use varnish to get rid of the fingerprints and that it would help the acrylic paint stay on it. However when I painted, it barely stayed on there :( and that clay was darker than yours so I would have to paint all over.

to make color lighter I mix translucent polymer clay and white in to a flash colored clay.

To fix your problem You may need to use Matte sealer on to cured clay before applying paint or You may need to look into a specific acrylics its designed to stick to a nonporous surfaces.

Is that varnish that you apply with the brush? Does it stop the clay from getting finger prints?

I am smoothing polymer clay with flat brash dipped in liquid polymer clay and clay softener

[clariceriz07]

do you bake them before you put the hands?

amazing a true artist :0) great video

[aishahona1]

How do you bake it? I was thinking that the figure is too big to go in a polymer clay oven, but to put it into the oven where you bake foods, isn't that not good for your health?

[gaisensie]

im sorry but what are the exact clays that you used for this sculpt? it takes me forever to find the perfect polymer clay T.T

Nadiia, your hands when they're working are a delight to watch. I note the deft way you hold your tools & your delicate touch. Very graceful movements. To anyone wanting to learn how to do this sort of work: Watch Nadiia's hands & fingers closely & imitate those postures & movements. They are critical to her work being so cunning when finished. Thanks Nadiia for the valuable information & instruction you provide; as well as the inspiration. :-)
