It's my fimoburger:) it's my like 4th clay work so please, don't be too harsh;) burger is about 2cmx2cm big. :) there is how i did it:
I used 5 colours of fimo clay:
-dark flesh for the bun
-lime green for a leaf of lettuce
-indian red for a tomato
-lemon for a slice of cheese
-chocolate for beef.

First, i did 2 balls from dark flesh clay( 1 smaller than 2nd one) to make the bun(both must have the same diameter!). From the smaller one I formed a pancake for the bottom. The second ball was flattened on the bottom( i was pushing down the egdes around to make a bun-like shape;)) then i rubbed on a piece of paper brown pastel and put the dust from it (with a brush) into the bun to make it look like toasted. next step was to do beef. after flatening chocolate clay ball into pancake i pricked around it softly to make it look more realistic:) later i did a slice of cheese(small square of yellow clay) and put it on the top of the brown bit, then i added a round slice of red clay(tomato) and put of the top of it . to make a slice of lettuce i flatened a ball of green clay as much as it was possible to not make it tear. (the thiner it is the easier to make it wavy it is). then i joined it all together and pierced by eyepin. i cooked it in boiling water for 4 minutes. to make it shiny you may want to varnish it:) thanks!

p.s. if you held out in reading it all im proud of you ! ;)
