As you all know, I don't do very much sculpting, but I did some last weekend that I thought I'd share.  You should also be able to see from these photos why I don't do much sculpting.


The Three Little Pigs birthday cake for my daughter's 3rd birthday:

The Big Bad Wolf (although she asked me if it was an Elephant.  I understand why she asked this):

Huffing and Puffing to blow the candles out:

But it didn't work out nearly as well for the three little pigs in this version of the tale:

Your comments and feeback are most welcome, but I'm not modifying anything as it has all been eaten already! :icon_lol:

cute!

i take it you didnt use a wire armature for them though!

Keeper

LOL No - that would have been mean of me, Stu!

I would recommend an adhesive that is stronger than butter icing for glueing blocks of chocolate to cake for walls, though!

Jam is a good adhesive for this, I think we used to use a yellow fruit jam for glue when I used to do this stuff.  Great work!!

Long term exposure to the Orb of Confusion will give you...er.. confusion!
