craftgrrl | Clay anchor/compass (Reply)

I had some modelling clay left and decided to make an anchor within a compass pendant/decoration as a tribute to one of my fandoms (Cut & Run series). The compass and anchor, the colours silver and gold, symbolizes the two characters from the books that are in a relationship.

Took me maybe an hour to make, after failing to make the rope look good a couple of times. Then baked it, and hand-painted it the next day. The anchor isn't perfect and the compass doesn't look like a compass but I'm pleased anyway. Painting it was especially fun and I like the result. I should play with clay more often; forgot how much fun it is, heh heh
