Crawling Creatures 2025 Part 6

I have so much Clay left that I have decided to continue with more Creatures.

Orange Ball

I have lots of Orange left so I first make a large Orange Ball

Mould Upwards

I now Squeeze the Ball at the Top to Mould it Upwards. It reminds me of a big nose minus the nostrils.

Red Dot

I next part the Bottom into two so it has little legs. Where the hell did that Red Dot appear from?

Star Shape

Okay this looks like a very fat Star at the upwards point. I think the Red is putting me off.

Depression

I have tweaked it so it is more even and added a Depression. That is also a good word for how I feel about the Red. Why did it have to be on the Front and not the Back? I will have to sort it.

I had made a mistake last time so I thought it better to have a break. Now I am ready to go again.

Redone

In order to cover up the mistake I have made the base of the Eyes slightly bigger.

Tiny Black

It is hard to tell from the above photograph but this is roughly the same size as the base. I will halve it and Roll it to make two Tiny Black Balls.

Add Pupils

I have placed the Black Balls on top of the White to make the Pupils. Now they really do look like Eyes

Super Tiny

The Crabs Eyes have Flecks of light in them. Therefore I need to make some Super Tiny sections.

Flawed

The Eyes look great. Unfortunately it is being Flawed by that bit of White on the Claw. I will need to fix that.

Smiles Ahoy

All sorted. I have turned it around and added a Smile.

Need to continue with next part. Legs go. Get it?

Lift Legs

I have noticed that the Crab seems to be starting to Stick to the pan. I decided to Lift it to a new place before continuing.

Mould Legs

The Legs got a little damaged whilst Lifting so I have had to Mould them again.

White Ball

Change of Colour. I need to make a White Ball. Like before I will divide it in half.

Roll Eyes

Now I have two parts I have Rolled them into Small Balls. These will become the base for the Eyes.

Grr Wrong Place

Grr I dropped it on the Wrong Spot. I have taken it off but of course some residue has stuck fast.

Now I am moving on to the Orange parts.

Selection of Orange

I have broken up a Selection of Orange pieces as I am going to need quite a few of different sizes.

Small Joining Orange

The first bit that I am going to work on need to be small. This is for Joining the Claws to the Body. I will break this ball into two smaller Halves.

Adding Claws

I have attached one piece to the Main Body then Added the Claw to it. I then repeated with the other side.

Large Rolled Orange

Next I take two Large (in comparison) pieces of Orange Clay. I have rolled them into Sausage Shapes.

Attach Front Legs

I have Attached the Orange Clay to just underneath the Claws. These will be the Front Legs.

Second Legs

I have repeated the process to make the Second Pair of legs.

Third Legs

The final pair of Orange pieces make the Third Pair of Legs. These look slightly further back because of the angle.
