Terms for using my tutorials


When using my tutorials or techniques explained in my tutorials all I need is that you say or write "Inspired by Talty" somewhere on the description, that's all I'm asking for. A link back to my gallery or tutorial is appreciated, but not necessary. You can make anything in my tutorials for personal or commercial purposes (yes, that means you can sell what you make) but you can't claim these techniques as your own. No redistribution, reposting or repacking of my tutorials, images, text or any part of them is allowed. They can't be translated to other languages without my permission (ask me about it). FREE TUTORIAL, NEVER TRY TO SELL IT.

The lace/floral background I used was made by ~redheadstock/Obsidian Down. [link]

I love this. I really do. So I wanted to share :D I think this is an awesome technique, so if you try it please let me know how it went! If you have problems or questions please feel free to ask me :D

FAQ:

- All shiny polymer clays have mica. You can use any clay that looks shiny, but some will show better than others. Just make sure it's shiny, as in fine specks of shine, not glitter.

Examples of my work using the mica shift technique:

can you glaze it or will that ruin the effect?

Fabulous tutorial.
Question, do you happen to know if you can use Pearl-Ex powders mixed with translucent, metallic Premo or standard white polymer clay?

Thanks! Mica shift works if you add Pearl-Ex to regular clay but it requires a lot of mica, and I know Pearl-Ex can get kind of expensive x.x I got the best results using translucent clay. If you are just asking if you can use mica with clay the answer is yes, as much as you want it's perfectly safe and looks awesome :la: actually some of my works include it.
