It was Klavdija's fault...

... that I decided to make a Skinner blend (a polymer-clay-world technical term). Klavdija, an actual PC-artist decided to issue a challenge - use these and these polymer clay colors in this and this order, make a Skinner blend out of them, and then use this blend in a piece of whatever. And you can only use one extra color.

Well, I am quite enthusiastic about polymer clay, unfortunatelly this enthusiasm has its limits. After seeing what others (and others) made for the challenge, I reconsidered entering, but since Klavdija is a most convincing person (she'll be sorry when she sees this), here's my entry.

First, I prepared the required colors. Of course, the red is a different one, since they don't sell that particular requested red one in any store readily accessible to Vesna and me.



Then, my pasta machine had its day. For a moment there, it actually seemed I knew exactly what I was doing.



It came out at an impractical size (I probably made it a bit too thin to be useful), so I made a cane out of it. I just used an extra sheet of blue (the same one as in the blend) as the "additional" color.



And then comes the piece-de-resistance, my challenge entry! 3 centimeters high.



You know, Klavdija, you could stop laughing now. I told you it would be a massacre...

Now I just have to figure out what to do with the leftovers.
