The Finishing Touches

Applying your finishing touches is the easiest part of sculpting a miniature face , primarily due to the tools you are using . No longer the harsh and hard needles , now you are utilizing the soft and gentle strokes of a soft bristled brush . In a sense you are painting the details , softening and smoothing out rough edges . Turpentine is the best thinner I've found for Super Sculpey , although you need to be careful with the amount you use because it really thins it out , BIG TIME ! Just wet your brush and dab off the excess , then apply the turp as if you were painting . This part is very low impact and very quick .



Curing Your Sculpture

Sculpey bakes hard at 275 degrees . In you home oven , the average piece takes about 15 minutes . Now due to the fact that your head sculpt is on your Shockini , you don't want to slap him in the oven , you'd end up melting your figure . Fortunately, thanks to the size , you can achieve the same results with a standard run-of-the-mill hand held Hair dryer . It only takes a couple of sessions of a couple minutes each and VIOLA! your head sculpt is cured and ready for painting .



Newest Head Sculpt : The Unknown Kini?

Just the basic head sculpt , trying to get the basic features laid in . Hopefully , if I've done my job correctly , you can already tell who this Kini is going to be .



Portrait adjustments and hair added . Still the Unknown Kini?

With the assistance of an impartial observer I have gone back and adjusted my portrait sculpt , hopefully getting the intended likeness closer to the model for this new sculpt . I have also started adding the hair .
