Hello, How are you? I am not the only one who likes Kamote Que especially when it has a lot of caramelized sugar in it that is the reason why I always buy one before I always eyeing for that one so now I can cook it on my own but the funny thing I can make it as a keychain too... LOL yeah, I will make a keychain made out of polymer clay. hehe
By the way, excuse me for the quality of the photos because a few days ago I decided to touch my phone's main lens, and now it has become like this I can't clean it anymore looks like it has a bokeh effect on it. But nothing going to stop me now LOL I might buy a new phone or If the lens I bought will fit on my phone camera lens cross the finger for this. It is hard to let go of this phone's camera quality is a bomb.
I bought new polymer clay so I have a lot of stock with me right now I have a lot of ideas in my mind about what to do with it so I hope you will like this one.
Materials:
- Polymer Clay
- Glass Sheet
- Pliers
- Toothpick
- X Acto Knife
- Brush
- Clay Tools
- UV Resin
- Mask
- Weighing Scale
- Keychain
- Gloves
- Uv Light
- Cotton Buds
- Alcohol
- Glass Container
- Colored Sand
- Soft Pastel
The Process:
First, I condition the clay until it is well combined. By the way, I use pale yellow with this one.
Then I weighed clay using my mini portable weight scale each clay weighing 1 gram.
And then I sculpt them with the shape of cut Kamote. Then I grab a toothpick which serves as the BBQ stick for the clay.
There are three pieces of Kamote-shaped clay. They are ready to be textured and colored.
But before that, I need to add texture to the clay first using this pointing tool.
I see some fine dust so I clean the clay first with alcohol and cotton buds.
Using soft pastel and brush I shade the polymer clay like the real kamote cue. As you can see "How come this is Kamote Que?" it will in a second after it got baked the magic will happen LOL.
Before I bake the clay I added the eye pin in first.
It is ready to be baked, I bake it as the instructions on the packaging say.
Now I have a baked Kamote Keychain, as you can see it became matte after baking.
Adding the Caramelize Sugar effect:
First I grab a soft pastel that is close to color or caramelized sugar and scrape it on the foil.
And then I added the UV Resin.
Then I mix it until well combined.
The mixture is ready.
I have colored sand on the side which will serve as the caramelized sugar.
Now, I am going to add the colored resin to the clay.
I observed that most of the caramelized sugar stayed on the side of the food so that is what I did.
It should look like this.
Now this is the best part adding the melted sugar which is the colored sand I just sprinkled onto the colored resin.
It should look like this.
I do the same thing on the other side. It is ready to be cured.
I then cure it with UV Lamp I make sure to rotate the clay so it will cure the UV Resin evenly.
And then I run it to the UV lamp more to cure it completely.
Time to add the Keychain:
I first put in the jump ring.
Next is the keychain.
And then close the jump ring with two pliers.
Walaahh~ Mini Kamote Que. The most enjoyable part is adding the caramelized sugar to it, it makes it realistic.
