My Little Mutant

After a few of us bought clay we decided to make our favourite game characters and paint them afterwards. I am a rookie when it comes to clay, i've used plasticine before, that's like clay right? ...It wasn't.

Apparently you have to wet the clay to stop it drying out, you need to massage it, give it a back rub and take it to dinner for it to even think about working properly- anyway, i found it hard. So while everyone else was making reindeer and cats and space alien creatures, i was nursing a lump of clay for a good two hours trying to make it vaguely look something like a 'cocoadile' from the Viva Pinata game. The other's mocked my cocoadile, saying it was depressed and didn't want to live if it was a mutant. Well they're not laughing now -.-

Ta-Da!

His meaning in life is to hold my pencils
Paint hides all wounds
Ok well i suppose he looks slightly depressed but i'm pretty pleased with myself. Considering i've never used clay before i think i did quite well :) If you want to see what the original cocoadile looks like go here!

P.S It turns out a terrible storm hit the university the other day and some of the pinatas who once mocked my cocoadile didn't make it...  : >
