I hate university

Journal Entry: Wed Aug 26, 2009, 6:40 PM
News and stuff


... ok, not actually true. I like university and learning, but I HATE homework. It's only been a week and a half and I'm already flooded with homework. I've been sleeping around 4 hours a day, I don't know how much of this I will be able to stand... so if anyone was wandering why I haven't uploaded anything new or answered to my messages, that's why. I'll try to answer my messages as soon as I can! Sorry for the wait :ashamed:

I have many projects sitting in the oven waiting to be finished! By some strike of luck, I don't have homework for the rest of the week so I'll try to make as much as I can! I miss drawing and sculpting so much :( I've been making some very little advance in my drawing... whenever I'm bored in the middle of a class, I start drawing :D So I'm planning a little comic with my boyfriend, that I've been sketching during classes. A little advance: it's about the forget-me-not 15th century German legend, which I love quite a lot :D

Guess what? I also finished the much promised Plate Tutorial! My second polymer clay tutorial, please watch it if you haven't yet: [link] . Constructive criticism is encouraged! I'll try to make the bowl tutorial as soon as I can!

I can only add that this week and the last one have been awful to me. Lots of bad things have been happening and I've been stressed, sad, angry, sleepless and crying most of these days. Hopefully, some really good things will start to happen in a few months, I'm very excited but I can't say anything about it yet ;)

I love both art and science. I'm a chemistry student, and in my free time I, among other things, write, draw, paint, cook, and recently I take photographs and make sculpey miniatures and jewelry.

talty, tengo una pregunta, quiero empezar a hacer polymer clay pero bueno no se mucho, lo q no entiendo es si hay q cocinarlo a lo q armas. y si es ais a q temperatura en donde y esas cosas, si em sacas las dudas te lo agradeceria :3
:icontalty:
Gracias por preguntarme :aww: Espero poder ayudarte!

Muy bien, el polymer clay es como una plastilina y se mantiene suave hasta que la horneas. Eso es muy conveniente porque no tienes que preocuparte por acabar un trabajo antes de que tu arcilla se seque, y cuando ya estás conforme puedes hornearlo y quedará muy duro y resistente.

Puedes hornearlo en cualquier horno que tengas, siempre que alcance alrededor de 130°C (te recomiendo que consigas un termometro para verificar la temperatura, porque si te pasas tu clay se puede quemar). Puedes usar un horno casero o un pequeño horno eléctrico (son baratos!) y cualquier charola que tengas, pero no olvides que cualquier cosa que entre en contacto directo con polymer clay "fresca" no debe ser usada para alimentos nunca más :( Así que usa una charola que no vayas a utilizar para cocinar nuevamente.

Para saber a que temperatura debes de hornear tu polymer clay, verifica las instrucciones del empaque ;) cada marca tiene una temperatura distinta, pero si tienes más dudas me dará gusto contestarlas :D

muchas gracias, otra pregunta si no es molestia :S
en q lugares puedo comprarla, en una artisteria , ferreteria? nose xDD
y si voy digo "hola, podria ser un paqete de polymer clay" o tiene otro nombre xD

muchas muchas gracias relamente m estas sacando grande GRANDES dudas :3
:icontalty:
Por supuesto que no es molestia, me encanta ayudar :aww:

Acá en México se consigue en una tienda de manualidades, de esas especializadas donde te venden pinturas, pinceles, fieltro, fomi, relleno de peluches, botones, etc... por lo general, aquí nadie la conoce como polymer clay sino por marcas, así que pregunta por algunas de las marcas más populares: sculpey, fimo, kato, premo, cernit, etc.

Puedes buscar en internet si alguna tienda que esté cerca de ti la tiene en su catálogo, o bien comprarla en línea. Comunmente se puede comprar en el mercado libre de tu país o hay algunas buenas tiendas en línea, aunque el envio es casi siempre desde estados unidos y por lo tanto bastante caro :(
