Hello, Spike the Tortoise




So a while back, one of my customers had shown me a drawing of his which was an illustration of a tortoise named Spike. He had told me about how he likes turtles/tortoises. At the time, I was playing around with polymer modelling clay, and had offered to make him a 3D sculpture of his tortoise character out of modelling clay. It was a lot of fun, and challenging at the same time. I tried my best to make it look similar to his drawing as well as give it my own sort of characteristics :)

His polymer clay tortoise arrived at his house today and he sent me a few photos :D I'm so happy that he arrived safely ^^ I had wrapped him up in tissue paper and placed him inside an extra "Moo Card" box that I had laying around (their plastic version), and had wrapped it up in Kraft Paper like a present. I don't think I took any photos of it when it was wrapped but I wish that I had done so, because I liked how I had wrapped it up. Anyways check out some of the photos that he took of Spike ^___^


^I really enjoyed this photo of all of Spike's new turtle family hehehe

  1. Ah, it's so fun to see Spike here! Yes, the wrapping indeed was fantastic. Layers upon layers of wrapping! I wish I had documented the unwrapping with pictures.

    Spike is adorable and makes me happy every time I look at him. ^_^
