it keeps the doctor away.

or so they say. :P

Miniature fuji apples, entirely handsculpted by me with polymer clay.







I know some of you have been waiting long for me to reveal my prize at TDA 2009.

Here's Ai. Crazily adorable right?



Head here to read more about her, and the entourage of pretty accessories she arrived with.

The apples are actually 1/12th miniature fuji apples, but in Ai's hands, they become 1/6th cherry apples.



When I won Ai, there were congratulations all round (though I bet there must be many in that room who wanted to just kill me and run off with the pink box too! haha).

And someone said, "Congrats! Welcome to our money-sucking hobby!"

:(

I shall not let that come true! Ai will be my model for all 1/6th scale sculpts (yes, I'll definitely be sculpting more in that scale) now, so she will actually be earning for me for a start. :)

Happy boxing day everyone!

P.S Krabi is a lovely, lovely place.
