Project #1: Ninja

My ninja turned out just okay. He was a little lopsided. His ninja star was a little jacked up. His eyes are too big. But he was pretty cute all the same.

He is considered a beginner-level project in the book since you basically just make a head and body and glue a bunch of crap on it. It doesn't get much more basic than that, my friends. Thankfully, my skills have improved.

Also, this was my first time playing with polymer clay, which is used to make the eyes for all the Creepy Cute dolls. It was pretty easy to do at this point, when all it involved was rolling out little black balls, smooshing and baking them. I just had no concept at this point as to what size they needed to be. More on eyeballs later. Onward.
