This is a tutorial for a very delicious banana split sundae I made from supplies I ordered from MiniatureSweet (to order these items plus more, visit their shop on Etsy.com)
The 1st step was to create a very creamy banana color. To make this mixture, mix translucent, white, and a VERY tiny amount of yellow. Next. Shape then starting by pulling from the ends and making sure the middle stay the thickest point. Also make sure it is slightly curved.
Then, choose the three colors that you want to be the ice cream scoops.( I chose different shades of blue, but use your own unique style). Also make sure that they are all the same size. After that, press the two bananas on the sides of all three. (If you want you can add TLS to the sides to ensure secure baking).
Next, take your blade and make continuous lines up and down all the scoops. After you do that, take a needle tool and press down on the bottoms of the scoops and texture then like you would a cake. Now to make the whipped cream, you can use a basic metal cake tip that you can but from the craft store. Using the round bottom of any tool, push very white clay through and curl it as it comes out. Now use TLS to apply it to the middle scoop.
Then, use TLS and your choice of color to create icing in the bananas! (It's not normal, but it's certainly adorable!). Make sure it is well mixed. Next, take rainbow sprinkles( that can be purchased from MiniatureSweet) and sprinkle a few onto the "icing". Now put an eye pin in the top of the sundae. (Optional), and bake at the temperature specified on the clay package. After its done baking and cooling, apply chocolate deco sauce on two of the ice cream scoops (which can also be purchased from MiniatureSweet). Let it dry for about 30 min-1hr, glaze, and you have a deliciously adorable banana split sundae! :D I hope you enjoy the project!

The White Rabbit- Alice in Wonderland
This is the latest edition to my Alice in Wonderland sculptures! It took quite a long time, and making it so that he looked furry was the most annoying part! Something I find useful is looking up a picture of what you are making, so you can use great detail! He cant stand by himself, because his heavy ears make him fall backwards! Well I hope all you artists are enjoying this lovely spring weather, and remember that sometimes you have to trade in sculpting to have a little fun! (sometimes) :D

The Queen of Hearts- "Off with her head!"- Alice in Wonderland.
I made this doll today, because of my obsession with the creativity of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland! She is depicted here, sitting with her favorite tarts (hope no one steals them!). This is by far the most detailed doll sculpture, that I've ever made. I hope you like her! ( It took about 3-5 hours to make).

Bookmarks And Rings- Artist Of The Month
I chose this shop to display, because she makes her items very flawless and unique, and as artists we have to make sure that we are precise, and that we use great detail, so that we can create the kind of realistic effect that people love! To see more of BookmarksnRings shop items go to Etsy.com!
Monster Fish Sculpture!
Out of my frustration of not being able to sculpt the perfect baby face, I decided to sculpt this little beast instead! I don't give tutorials on these kinds of sculptures, because to put it plainly, I can't remake them! The kinds of sculpture ideas that just pop into your head out of nowhere are unique to your style and thoughts! For example, when I look at each of my sculptures I know how I felt when I was making them! Make sure that what you sculpt if your way and unique!
Half-iced technique!
Adding icing to only half of a cookie seems to be a growing trend in the "miniature world". I decided to try it out, and the key to making it precise is using a needle tool to guide the icing directly down the middle. Use sandpaper, or a brush tool to create texture on the surface. DO NOT use too much of orange pastels, or else it will looked like a burnt cookie! *TIP* If you already have white "icing" just add your choice of acrylic paint to change the color without thickening it!. Have a great day!

It's Summer Time, Let's Grill!!
This is a miniature ribs, and barbecued kabob necklace charm. I made the grill marks on the ribs by using black acrylic paint and a toothpick. I used different shades of brown pastels to make it look like it was cooked! The kabob took forever to make! The corn was made with A LOT of tiny yellow/translucent balls. This will make a really fun necklace for the summer time! *For more info. or tips on how to make it then go to Toniellison on YouTube and she has a video on ribs. ^o^ Hope you all have a great fun summer!
