Tutorial How to make Cold Porcelain Clay

Cold Porcelain Clay is an alternative for polymer clay, it's made from easy to get materials like white glue and corn starch as basic content. I knew this kind of clay from our discussion at our clay community KSCI. After looking some tutorials from any blog and read the sharing from my Clay-er friend "Ninna Clay" (thanks to her a lot, she gave her recipe to us). So last weekend I made this clay and I was surprise & Happy I can made it! you can print this tutorial and stamp on @ your kitchen :D 


It is the tear drop look likes, it means your dough is good!



This is my first creation using CP, two little kids wearing santa hat & clothes. The brother playing violin seriously and the little sister singing "Holy night..silent night" I wish I can hear her voice :P (I get the picture with cellular camera, so its not so clear capture). This clay can be shrink about 10 to 20% so be sure you make bigger than your expectation, it also will looks transparent after dry, so you need add some white paint if you want it looks milky.  I think this clay characteristics somehow are similar with resix clay. (I use acrylic paint, it become darker after dry so just use a little drop for coloring) 

I will take some photos after it dries, and I still want to play with this clay. I'll meet you soon with good capture camera!

Lance enjoys dancing and singing as shown when he is cleaning the door in Gru's house.

Lance is the minion that was placing some newspapers or magazines on a table in front of where Gru sat. Gru was looking through some pictures of El Macho on his laptop. Halfway through the pictures, his laptop has lost internet connection. He called out for Kevin several times to fix it but there was no response. Annoyed, Gru asks Lance where is Kevin. Lance just shrugs, pretends to fart and walks away not knowing that Kevin was kidnapped, as he is one of the only few minions who has not been kidnapped and turned evil.
When Phil was kidnapped by Dr. Nefario while he was vacuuming the carpeted floor, Lance is the minion with the cloth tied on his head, carrying a bucket of cleaning supplies. He notices that the vacuum cleaner is left on. Curious, he looks outside through the door that was left a jar, but since there was no one there he closed the door. He then opens it again to clean the door knob.
