from pixels to polymer clay - Ryans Polymer Clay Models

I've been working on developing some Polymer clay models from the zelda series, will try and show them as I complete them.. My works in progress can be seen on my DA page : i-luv-tea on deviantART

I'd love some opinions on them.

have you worked on any real clays?

I've only worked in sculpey, I like this because I can oven cure it. I don't have the means to kiln clay, and air drying is a little slow for me.
As I say I'm really only getting into this so I'm open to hearing about other peoples methods.
What do you think of them so far?

I've been working with earthenware clay for a bit, I actually have never tried the polymer clay since I have the the access to a ceramic workshop right now, but i always thought the polymer clay is rather a alternative to the mineral clay. it's easier to work with, but without the firing process and proper glazing options, it just feels a bit off to me. Of course that's just my opinion, and I'm sure going try polymer clay in the future when i don't have a ceramic lab nearby.

Yeah its definitely worth a go, polymer clays can be quite versatile. You may have to play around with a mix of different ones. I like super sculpey and sculpey firm.
I'd love to have the facilities to use some real clay as I haven't since school and then I wasted the opportunity! I'm thinking of taking a pottery night class though so who knows!

New work in progress on the King of Red Lions- let me know what you think!
