Giant Food Replika (Dummy Food) Pertama di Indonesia



Halo Indonesia, 

Siang ini saya mau post karya saya di awal tahun 2019 yang cukup membuat saya kekar.. iya soalnya, waktu membuat claynya..badan rasanya kayak habis angkat barbel berkilo-kilo dengan proses yang lumayan lama :D (tapi herannya berat badan gak turun juga) haha

Seiring dengan berkembangnya dunia kerajinan tangan dan seni di Indonesia, akhirnya saya membuat juga replika bukan yang biasa. Biasanya, saya membuat ukuran aslinya dengan perbandingan 1:1 atau miniaturnya dengan perbandingan 1:3, 1:6, 1:12 dan sebagainya. Tapi kali ini saya membuat sebuah mie kare/ Curry laksa noodle dengan ukuran mangkok yang berdiameter sebesar 60 cm. Mangkoknya sendiri sudah cukup berat, ditambah mie, kuahnya dan aneka toppingnya maka replika ini nggak bisa diangkat 1 orang, alias harus 2 orang. begitulah si Pak Sopir mengaku keberatan ketika memindahkan food replika ini.

Dan inilah Giant Food replika/ Giant Upsize Dummy Food pertama di Indonesia yang dibuat oleh KuroHouseofCraft yang akhirnya jadi juga...
karena waktu membuatnya sangat extra deg-degan, bagi yang demen seni clay, bikin clay dengan ukuran lebar-lebar itu beresiko pecah, melendung bahkan mencekung, ditambah resiko bagian dalamnya nggak kering-kering ><" uh rasanya pengen cepet kuselesaikan tapi bagaimanapun harus bersabar menunggu dan membuat proses demi prosesnya, mulai dari conditioning/ menguleni claynya, pencampuran warna, sculpting, painting dan sebagainya. Begitu jadi rasanya super lega pakai banget.

Nah yang mau selfie sambil menikmati curry laksa benerannya, silahkan ke Legend Kitchen ya :) Replika ini dibuat memang untuk selfie karena bagian 1 topping udang dan tahunya bisa dilepas2. tentunya jangan digigit atau dicuil-cuil ya..gemes boleh tapi dalam hati aja hihi..

kalau ini foto jarak dekatnya, bagi saya detail itu sangat penting sekalipun ukurannya besar, saya harus tetap memperhatikan tekstur, bentuk kuah dan lain sebagainya, supaya makin lihat, orang makin lapar hihihi

Ohya di foto terakhir ini, saya mau menjelaskan arti tulisan kanji yang saya sertakan di sana, 美術家, atau びじゅつか. bijutsuka, artinya adalah "artist" atau seniman. Jadi Food Replica  美術家 artinya adalah "Seniman Food Replika".
Replika makanan yang saya buat, bukan dibuat dengan buru-buru tapi saya membuatnya dengan hati dan teknik-teknik yang saya pelajari selama bertahun-tahun, tentu dengan mencurahkan waktu, materi juga tenaga. Semoga dengan demikian, semua orang bisa memahami bahwa tidak ada yang instan khususnya hasil karya - hasil karya handmade.

Twin figures in glass dome by KuroHouseofCraft

Sekitar beberapa bulan lalu, seorang teman craftku yang baik dan sudah senior memesan figures untuk hadiah cucu kembarnya yang berulang tahun. 

Karena the twins ini lucu banget, saya senang sekali bisa bikin figures dari foto mereka. 
Figures ini kubuat dari full polymer clay dengan menyertakan detil pada baju dan topi. ohya sebenernya tanemannya kubuat glow in the dark tapi karena kesibukan yang amat padat, nggak sempat kufoto <hiks> 


Twin figures in glass dome by KuroHouseofCraft

Karena pikirku pakai akrilik box kog kurang manis, kebetulan nemu si glass dome ini. rasanya akan lebih cantik untuk melindungi clay figures dari debu. ya harganya sih mirip-mirip dengan akrilik box dan ukurannya terbatas, tapi oke lah untuk dimensi figures dengan tinggi 8-15 cm.  Kalau mau lihat detilnya silahkan ke youtube berikut ini. 




Terimakasih Gia & Gwen, Happy birthday..semoga jadi anak yang pinter, sehat selalu dan membanggakan

Dummy Food Cheese Omlete Kibocheese

Seharusnya saya post dummy food ini akhir bulan Desember 2018. Tepat sebelum malam natal karya ini selesai juga. Tapi karena beberapa hal, rasanya mau buka blog nggak sempat lagi. 

Nah hari ini mumpung nungguin clay yang sedang dioven, kupost deh daripada ketunda lagi.

Food replika/ dummy food atau fake food ini adalah replika dengan skala 1:1 dengan makanan aslinya, jadi bukan miniatur ya. kalau miniatur, skala ukurannya diperkecil, sedangkan ini bentuk dan ukurannya sama persis dengan aslinya. Khusus KuroHouseofCraft, dalam pembuatannya lebih banyak handmade dengan memperhatikan detailnya, jadi pembuatan tekstur dan bentuknya banyak menggunakan tangan baik langsung maupun dengan tools/alat-alat khusus untuk sculpting dsb. Kenapa sih nggak pakai resin/karet/fiber dan sejenisnya? karena saya sementara ini memperhatikan masalah kesehatan dan kualitas tentunya. Jadi memang kalau pesan, mau detail, mau bagus, mau menarik pembeli..ya pastinya harus antri sesuai jadwal dan sabar ya :)

hayo.. siapa yang mau makan kue-kue yang enak ini? langsung aja ke kibocheese yang ada di mall-mall yang ada di Jakarta (jangan lupa intip instagramnya dulu ya) Sukses buat Kibocheese. ini Omletenya enak beneran lho.

Dummy Food Indonesia Peking Duck by KuroHouseofCraft



This is end of November 2018 and soon we will start new year 2019, time flies so fast and what I do still finishing some dummy foods project. 

This is one of the latest arts I finished this end 2018. Replica of roasted peking duck from Sapo Oriental restaurant. Is it look crunchy outside and delicious? Making it..really need so much mood, because its size is about 40 centimeters with details of head and skin. Also it must suit with the hanger. I completely did it without any mold and its is full sculpting. Huff what a big complicated project but still I'm very happy when it done well.

Panakawan Javanese Wayang Miniature Clay Thimble

I remember when I was a kid, there was comedy program on TV called Ria Jenaka. It presented comedians of Panakawan. I was not fan of it because its not really fun for me and not cute at all. (sorry) But here I am, I just understand what is Panakawan. If you know Javanese wayang, Panakawan is one of its. I am super proud of this Java heritage.


The Panakawan Miniature of Javanese Wayang on Thimble by  KuroHouseofCraft

This is from wikipedia: "Punokawan or panakawan or panakavan (phanakavhan) are the clown servants of the hero. There are four of them – Semar (also known as Ki Lurah Semar), Petruk, Gareng and Bagong. Semar is the personification of a deity, sometimes said to be the dhanyang or guardian spirit of the island of Java. In Javanese mythology, deities can only manifest themselves as ugly or otherwise unprepossessing humans, and so Semar is always portrayed as short and fat with a pug nose and a dangling hernia.

His three companions are his adopted sons (I just know it.. they are his adopted sons hehe), 
They given to Semar as votaries by their parents. Petruk is portrayed as tall and gangling with a long nose, Gareng as short with a club foot and Bagong as obese." if you want to know further more then google it.



The Panakawan Miniature of Javanese Wayang on Thimble by  KuroHouseofCraft


One of my craft friends ask me to make the miniature of the Panakawan complete with gamelans (Java music instruments) on the thimble. Since its very creepy actually for me, I want to made it more cute. I remember their face is white and red lips and their funny hair style, so I made it.

This miniatures made of Cernit polymer clay and I used WPO polymer clay varnish to give glossy looks. if you see the batik, I use polymer cane technique with asoka flowers inspiration. I use white, gold, brown and black combinations. I think making cane is quite addictive lol


So.. Enjoy my miniature, hope you like it. Please follow my instagram kurohouseofcraft

Dummy Food Emping Balado by KuroHouseofCraft

Bicara soal keripik, Indonesia adalah negara yang memiliki banyak sekali snack berupa keripik dan kerupuk. Satunya adalah emping, yang terbuat dari biji tanaman melinjo. 
Emping biasanya dipakai untuk menemani makan gado-gado dan aneka soto, tapi bisa langsung juga dicemil. 

Saya tidak menyangka tiba akhirnya bikin dummy makanan berupa keripik ini. Yang jadi spesial, biasanya emping yang manis pedas yang disebut juga Emping balado ini ukurannya kecil-kecil sekitar 3-4 cm, tapi ini dibikin jumbo jadi sekitar 14-15 cm diameternya. Hm.. yang makan jadi puas deh.. hihi sekali ambil besar..

Bikin dummy food/replika emping ini kesulitannya adalah di pori-porinya itu karena harus terlihat mekar dan renyah. Juga pewarnaan dari gula baladonya.. 
Tapi seneng deh bisa bikin salah satu snack kebanggaan Indonesia. Emping balado ! kres kres..enaknya..

Dummy Food Patatos French Fries by KuroHouseofCraft

"Kentang goreng adalah hidangan yang dibuat dari potongan-potongan kentang yang digoreng dalam minyak goreng panas. Di dalam menu rumah-rumah makan, kentang goreng yang dipotong panjang-panjang dan digoreng dalam keadaan terendam di dalam minyak goreng panas disebut French fries. Kentang goreng bisa dimakan begitu saja sebagai makanan ringan, atau sebagai makanan pelengkap hidangan utama seperti bistik, hamburger, fish and chips dan currywurst." (sumber: wikipedia)

Siapa yang nggak suka french fries? snack jaman old sampai jaman now dan jaman future ini akan selalu jadi kesukaan kita. 

Udah lama nggak bikin dummy food <replika makanan> french fries, kali ini KuroHouseofCraft bikin yang ukurannya jumbo.

Dummy food ice creamery cubes

Hi, for long time I haven't post anything. Sorry...

This time I make food replica of ice creamery cubes of cubecreamery.id, you can check in their instagram. 

Its quite difficult to make this ice cream cubes, because I must shape the polymer clay as creamery cube. If you are an polymer clay artist you must understand that it is not easy work and it can't use mold. However it is a challenge for me. :D

Dummy food of ice cream cubes #cubecreameryid @ kurohouseofcraft

The unique things about this ice cream is, everyone who buy can put the sprinkles as they want as the topping. I must make chocolate sprinkles and the other one is beef bacon & potato chips sprinkle. hmm..I'd never eat ice cream with beef & potato, but it so delicious.

Dummy Latte Art for Coffee Tea and Chocolate

Hi,  Today is valentine day, mostly couples go to dating, some have a romantic dinner or just sitting together in a cafe enjoying tea, coffee and live music. Hmm I remember, about last eleven years ago me and hubby went out together, well I'm not really celebrating it till today but for me its okay to have good moment with our love one. That's why I took this picture of couple love latte arts I'd just made yesterday, is this romantic? 


fake foods of latte arts by KuroHouseofCraft

This month I'm working on some fake foods, some of them are replica of coffee and chocolate latte arts and some tea for a cafe in Bandung. They want me to make 12 different types of beverages to be attached in their cafe's wall as a clock ornaments. I think I will go to bandung to visits that cafe while I go next time. It must be good place.

I will wake up all night long when drinking it but I love coffee, I am fan of Indonesian coffee, for me florest and sidikalang are the best, they have good taste and smells so good. When I make those fake coffee latte arts, I make the real one too and enjoying it so I can feel the real one from my heart. Of course these two week I can't sleep well lol, its okay.

So, making polymer clay (this time I combine fimo, cernit and mofa clay) and resin to stay or stick together with the cup is not an easy work, the porcelain cup itself can be little increase when baking, resin itself can be little decrease after cooling down, so it was really need to working layer by layer. These tea looks so simple but it is not simple as its appearance. But I'm happy making it, that's art work. Thank you for reading my blog and I hope you enjoy my arts. Happy valentine day dear friends.

Pororo Polymer Clay Figure

Tahun 2017 ini rasanya super cepat, secepat kilat. Rasanya baru January awal tahun ada banyak harapan-harapan, tapi tiba-tiba sudah hampir akhir tahun. Rasanya ada banyak hal yang  belum terwujud, seperti rutin mengisi channel youtube dengan video tutorial. Tapi di sisi lain banyak ucapan syukur juga, Tuhan banyak memberikan kesempatan untuk mencoba hal-hal baru dalam berkreasi, banyak ketemu teman baru, dan banyak hal lainnya yang tidak bisa kuceritakan semua. 

Dengan banyaknya kesibukan dengan dummy food tahun ini, akhirnya bikin figure kesukaanku, Pororo :) Tadinya pororo dan petty ini mau kubuat dari air dry clay, tapi sesekali coba juga deh bikin 3D figure yang lumayan besar pakai polymer clay. Figure ini kubuat dari polymer clay cernit. Untuk warna-warnanya memang kusesuaikan dengan warna karakter aslinya dan jadilah Pororo figure dan Petty setinggi 5 cm. Pororo yang ini akan terbang ke singapore akhir tahun ini :) 

Pororo & Petty Figure @ KuroHouseofCraft "wait Pororo"

Karena Pororo Identik dengan salju dan di pengunungan es, kubuat fotonya dengan background es beneran. Jadi Es seplastik besar kuhancurin dan dibentuk seolah jadi pegunungan es, dialasi papan/ stereofoam putih. jadi deh suasana gunung salju tempat di mana Pororo dan teman-temannya tinggal. Hehe karena aku cukup suka fotografi, mulai dari bikin esnya dan proses foto-fotonya cukup membuat hatiku senang.

Pororo & Petty Figure @ KuroHouseofCraft "Hello"

Pororo & Petty Figure @ KuroHouseofCraft

Pororo & Petty Figure @ KuroHouseofCraft "Petty, are you okay?"
Nah, figure pororo semacam ini, keunggulannya memakai polymer clay adalah ketahanannya terhadap air, jadi misal setelah dijadikan cake topper, setelahnya masih bisa dipajang atau dijadikan toys/ mainan/ objek foto. Tentu saja untuk cake topper, figure yang terbuat dari clay harus disesuaikan beratnya dengan jenis kuenya. kalau dummy cake sangat tidak apa-apa, tapi kalau cake yang mudah ambles/ super lembut, kusarankan topper memakai light weight air dry clay. Untuk ukuran 5-10 cm, kurasa polymer clay masih tergolong ringan.

Happy Holiday buat semuanya :)
