Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Clay Characters for Kids

Book Review: Not just for kids
Summary: 5 Stars

Thirty projects, lots of great basic info about colors, color mixing, making shapes, combining shapes, changing expressions, etc.

Everything is illustrated in imaginative ways - even the basic color wheel is a whimsical thing.

The elves are adorable and the dragon beautiful - a huge range of critters and creatures in between - all appear to be quite do-able.

I think this would be a great book even for an adult who wants to try sculpting/modelling - you'll get some great inspiration from this! Plus, the "story-process" in the second half of the book is terrific and all the pictures are just gorgeous! :)
