My best piece to date, Brazilian Rainbow boa.

I took some shots of this guy before I baked him so I could get him in some poses, I'm really happy with how he came out! Its been awhile since I've made a brazilian but this one blows my other Brb pieces out of the water and into space!

I'll gets some shots up of him finished when I figure out a way to get iridescence.

That's so awesome, you really have a great talant. I want to start working with clay sometime soon

Thank you SnakeKittyFish, you should definitely try it out!!!

That is beautiful! Definitely gotta get that fired and glazed. I wish I knew what to tell you to put on it to get that telltale rainbow shine.

Thanks thesnakeguy, it's fired and looks really good, I've been packing around about some tricks for the iridescence

This might sound crazy, but a few drops of motor oil diluted with a clear lacquer might give it that rainbow effect. Like when you see oil in water out on the ground.

Opalescent nail varnish? I got one from a makeup brand called Stargazer that had a great rainbow shine effect on my nails, and I often paint my clay stuff with nail varnish.

This is awesome!! (I was wondering how you were posing it different ways, good idea to take some pics before baking!) I do some sculpting with sculpey and paint so I love seeing stuff like this! Lotts of hard work and detail. It turned out really great! :)

Thank you MizTwisted! Its been quite awhile since i've dealt with just clay, i've since moved onto just super sculpey and acrylic paint. Do you have any threads of your work? I'd love to see.

You're very welcome! :) painting the small pieces allows for so much more control over detail than just using the clay, love it! I don't have any threads with my sculpey stuff yet just my paintings, but I may post one soon. Keep up the good work!! ^.^
