Peachy

'Today I am making little peach tarts to go in my cake tin. I used Super Sculpey sculpturing compound for the pastry as I had a huge block of it to use up. It's a little different in texture to Sculpey 3 so hope I can still get good results.

After lining a pastry tin with the pasty I first also lined the pie with scrap clay which is a little darker than the peaches. I then cut rough peach shapes by making a ball and cutting it into segments. The clay could probably done with resting in the freezer as it distorted easily but I figured this wouldn't show under the glaze. The glaze was made by mixing pastels shavings with Liquid Fimo.

I added the glaze with a pointy tool generously coating it.

The top was made by weaving thin strips of clay.

These were then coloured with pastel shavings and pressed onto the pie. I carefully cut a slice of pie and added extra glaze to the pie dish to look like sauce oozing out.
