Yes, polymer clay is so fragile! Too bad I have allergic reaction to resin 
But good artist can make a masterpiece out of anything (like a pumpkin for example 
) Than again, even best materials and tools won't save an artist if his arms "grow out of his butt" (as we say in Russia lol) So I have to practice anatomy and face features first 
) And I bet you can make an amazing OOAK doll using resin as well! Hot Toys makes figures with real hair and clothing and it looks fantastic!

Hahah! Arms growing out of butts....perfect!
That's a real shame you have an irritation to resin. Definitely, as you say, any artist can make great work out of whatever material is around them, I agree. It's like when people think you can only make wonderful work with expensive materials....I find the cheapest things work just fine for a lot of things.

You are right! So sorry dor delays with the comments, time goes by so fast when I work Life is just crazy!!!
Life is just crazy!!! Absolutely! It seems to go faster and faster...I forget what i worked out two weeks ago because I'm busy on whatever is next.
I know just how you're feel Sadly it's not fun to work like a horse every day... I don't even care for commisions anymore just to enjoy the creative process!
Sadly it's not fun to work like a horse every day... I don't even care for commisions anymore just to enjoy the creative process!I'm the same, I try to avoid too many commissions on top of other work commitments. It's just so much better to focus on your own projects...which sometimes you can turn into money, when needed, anyway.
Exactly! Besides, personal projects are perfect for experiments, and it makes the whole process way more interesting!
Yes, I agree...The only time I find any interesting new methods are doing personal pieces...I enjoy my "Work" too, but it's rare that anything unexpected that happens is a good thing.
