A Unicorn and Castle from Silk Clay
#v14808
Each unicorn in the fantasy landscape is made from two polystyrene eggs for the body and head which are covered with Silk Clay. Silk Clay is also used for modelling legs and for the details. The card castle is assembled and covered with Silk Clay. The table is made from glittery foam rubber attached to three thimbles for the table legs. Details are made with Foam Clay and Silk Clay Creamy.
