  • Make these adorable air dry clay gnomes for an easy beginner project. Use Das air dry clay for easy sculpting. You can also add a foil armature (mold) to create your gnome and save on clay. Cones also work well as a base structure if you cover them with foil first. See below for the full-length CZcams tutorial to also watch how to make a female gnome companion.

    Hihi this looks so good how can I prevent cracking in the clay when it's drying?

    • @FirstDayofHome
      @FirstDayofHome  Před 8 měsíci +1

      You’ll want to make sure the clay is moist enough when you’re sculpting it. I like to knead my clay a bit adding moisture before I start sculpting it into shape. You also want to make sure the clay isn’t too thin. Hope this helps!

      I don’t use a gloss, and I just use acrylic paint. You can get a more detailed video tutorial here: czcams.com/video/lIfWjLuXCHY/video.html Have fun!

    • @FirstDayofHome
      @FirstDayofHome  Před rokem

      Thank you! Yes, it's acrylic paint. You can try using an acrylic varnish or perhaps Mod Podge Outdoor formula. Here's the full tutorial if you want more details: czcams.com/video/lIfWjLuXCHY/video.html

    • @FirstDayofHome

      Hello. Yes, it dries over time and cannot be modeled again once it dries. However, you can add water as you work to prevent it from drying out until you are finished. I have a full length video for this tutorial on my channel if you’re interested. czcams.com/video/lIfWjLuXCHY/video.html
