  1. Step 0

    Step 0

    For these skulls I used "JOVI" air-dry clay, however polymer clay could be used.

  2. Step 1

    Step 1

    Start of by rolling a ball of clay between your palms so that their are no cracks in the clay. The clay tool that will be used is shown here.

  3. Step 2

    Step 2

    Using your thumb and index finger, pinch the clay to form a 'chin'.


  4. Step 3

    Step 3

    Create an indentation for the eyes using the back of the paddle end of the clay tool.

  5. Step 5

    Step 5

    Create two nose slits and teeth slits by using the sharp end of the clay tool.

  6. Step 6

    Step 6

    Using the sharp end of the tool, press and scrape the clay to make deep eye sockets.

  7. Step 7

    Step 7

    Using a little bit of water, smooth out any cracks and leave to dry for the recommended time suggested by the clay manufacturer. Here are three I have completed

  8. Step 8

    Step 8

    Paint 'em up! Use black acrylic paint to paint the eye sockets and teeth and allow to dry before painting the rest of the skull silver. Once dry, coat with a layer of varnish/gloss.
    Now your skulls are ready to use!
