Tom and Loki - polymer clay






Alright my darlings ...
 
So, I had been talking to a dear friend of mine over chat and such, and I had this insane, beautifully gorgeous idea come to me. Thusly, it had to happen.
 
What, you ask?
 
Well, I shall show you.
 
 For those who do not know of a certain British actor named Tom Hiddleston ... well, you know of him now. Amazing, amazing actor and wonderful guy in general (as most everyone thinks... ehehehe!). He's more known for his parts in the Thor movies and The Avengers as Loki of Asgard (duh, you wouldn't be here if you weren't nerds and knew of him) ...
 
Ok, off the bunny trail already, Abilaine.
 
This is what happened ...
 
 


So, yes, apart from being excessively nerdy and rather ridiculous ... I love them both sooo terribly! Yet, alas, in vain. They were made (as I said) for a friend and I have a Loki already so no need to be greedy and mean. :D hehe!

I did not even hint that I was sending them (believe me, I was grinning and laughing over my pure genius for days) and she was ... well, surprised I think. *winks*



 
I admit it, I am afraid I got utterly too attached to "tiny Tom" when I was making him.
 
*sobs*
TAKE CARE OF HIM, my friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
*ahem*
 
Where was I?
 
:}
 
 
(I just want to pinch him little cheeks!!!!)
 
Sorry.

 
Gotta say, am rather proud of the hair.
Yea, yea, I'm so humble but seriously ... the fabulousness is astounding. *swoooons*

 
 
 
There you have them, people.
TAAAA-DAAA!

The Avengers, Nick Fury, and Loki - polymer clay







 Ok, ok, so some may know this already but a few months ago I went and bought some Polymer clay. Aaand let's just say I ADORE the stuff!! So fun and easy to work with.

 
Sooooo ... TA-DA!

 THE AVENGERS.

Had tons of fun doing these. And they were relatively easy to do once I got the basic idea of how I made each one ... :D


  Captain America himself ... (yes, my favorite, I admit)


Tony Start (Iron Man) ... a close second.









Aaaaaaaaand ...




 
 

"I am Loki of Asgard, and I am burdened with glorious purpose."
 


My pride and joy, people. XD However, to my utter sadness, the cape was so thin at the bottom that one *bang* and ... well, there went the corner of the cape! But he's just adorable and I wouldn't dream of parting with him ...



Bonus for a certain someone I know ... *winks* You know who you are, my friend. :D

So ta-da!

Comment what you think and who's your favorite.


Blessings!

Tony Stark a.k.a. Iron Man's helmet







 
Well, as the title says ...
 
 TA-DA!
 
 
 
 
Iron Man's helmet!!
 
So, I started this project three days before my friend's birthday (hah, bad idea!!!) and was completely thinking I was not EVER going to possibly get it done.
 
But I did, obviously.
 
*insert giddy laughing* 
 
Moral of the story: Don't go skimpy on duct tape and spray paint!!! XD
 
 
My first "attempt" was a complete fail (no, there is not a picture!! ahhh!) :}
I got incredibly irritated and just went almost crazy ... but it usually takes a whole lot to make me give up on anything. Anyway, I ended up using the "fail" as a prototype and soo ...
 
 
(after hours upon hours) ... I got this.
 
Turned out pretty well considering that I was so pressed for time and all.
I used mostly medium weight cardboard and made a sort of cap like thing from the inside, using the duct tape to get the pieces to mold together loosely (so I could make changes if needed).
 
(sorry no pictures for that ...)
 
 
I used heavy duty glue to bond the whole thing together and make it look like metal or whatever. :)
 



First coat of paint turned out pretty well ... not enough coverage and a few mess ups.

 
I'm pretty sure I put four coats of both the gold and red on. XD
More was needed in certain places of course and the thing smelled horrendously!!
 
(by the way, like if YOU (...and she knows who she is! eheh!) like end up dying from the fumes ... well, sorry!!
 
 *makes oops face*
 
Joking, people, joking.



























But anyways here it is, in all it's glory.

Altogether ... I think it must've took about 20 hours (like I am totally guessing here ...)

So, tell me what you think, my darlings!!

Blessings,
