    Thank you! I've got a bunch of these opalite marbles so I'm making lots of 'blind' sculptures. Here's an octopus I started today.

    This is super cool! Your design has a lot of charm to it :)
    what kind of clay are you using? Was the shell sculpted as well?

    thanks! I'm using Apoxie Sculpt, a two part epoxy clay that self hardens once mixed.

    The shell is actually a highly detailed replica that I found in an antique store.

    Thank you all! I'm having a ton of fun! If you want more art updates I post a lot of WIP to my Instagram PhoenixCryNebulas (there is taxidermy on there just FYI).

    Here is the octopus finished:

    Had to start another octopus because I love them!! This one will be a Blue-ringed and I will add some resin to minic water in the copper box.
