In this project, you’ll bring your creativity to life by sculpting your very own art toy using polymer clay. Follow along with the lessons as we design, sculpt, and refine a unique character from start to finish. By the end, you’ll have a one-of-a-kind art toy to display or add to your collection!

What You’ll Do:

Design Your Character: Start by sketching a simple design for your art toy. Feel free to draw inspiration from your favorite characters or come up with something entirely original.
Sculpt the Body Parts: Using polymer clay, sculpt each part of your toy, including the head, body, arms, and legs. Follow the techniques demonstrated in the course to shape and detail your character.
Assemble Your Toy: Put all the pieces together, ensuring your toy is balanced and proportionate. You’ll also learn how to add small details, like facial features or accessories, to make your toy truly unique.
Finishing: Sand any imperfections and prepare your toy for painting. Apply a primer if necessary, and then paint your toy using the techniques shown in the course.
