I like the colors you used- not sure I love the texture/color you used for the face?

The face came from making a mold of the face of the original toy. It's clay, and in two layers of paint. One which can't be seen since I went over it.

Was the mold what made the face lumpy or the paint?
IF it was the paint, I learned after several customs to add water to the paint & do several thin layers instead of thicker.
I always loved pointers when I started & still appreciate them now!
I think it turned out cute

Thanks !
I'd like to believe the paint gives it the lumpy look mainly. How the mold was done is I put paster paris scrips lightly all over the face and then after it dried. I put a thin layer of clay on top of the paster paris and baked it gently so there'd be no cracking or bubbles in the clay. I know I could have laid the clay inside the paster paris but that didn't happen because I knew the clay would be delicate and hard to remove from there as opposed to from it being on top.
