Texturing Rabbit Sculpture clay

Video Transcript

"Okay now we are going to texture, more or less, the classic way that I do that's with a piece of cloth that's also dry, that has to dry off and to get all the tool marks away. This piece, if you want to keep it as, you know, as a real garden craft you have to let it dry for week or more because if you have to put in the kiln have to, has to be bone dry. And then put in the kiln, you have to put when it start drying. This block that we put before away, the block of styrofoam and that is going to be empty. And only when you put that just make a hole from, from the back to the connecting the head and then it will be ready for the kiln with all the air passes. Okay you have to do that. This also you can make a easy version of that that, but its not going to be good in the exterior. Have to keep the interior if you are going to have bunny as a little sculpture in your balcony that is like out of the rain though. You just, you know, follow the rest of the program and you will see which kind of finishing I'm going to give. I'm going to give several coats of a very strong plastic enamel that will protect this sculpture for a long time without being fired in the kiln. Means that, you know, its not going become ceramic always going to be like a dried clay that is quite sensible to the water. Sensible to, you know, to the cracks or it?s much more fragile than the ceramic. The ceramic it?s fantastic. It?s almost indestructible. Anyway, and this more or less is the little bunny. I hope you enjoy making it. Next when this is going to be dry I will show you how to coat with several coatings of a very strong enamel to keep this rabbit long time. Thank you."
