I am on a roll again. I was recently commissioned to make a wedding cake topper.
Its really different. Its based on a photo I was given from a story called A Tale of Two beans.
The bride to be wanted something as close to the photo as possible. I added a veil & top hat/bow tie to dress them up some. I added her wedding colors (blue/raspberry) in the flowers & there is alot of wood at the venue so I stood the beans on a wood grain textured base.
Here is the photo they are based on:
I made an armature for each bean from Sculpey Ultralight Clay so they wont be too heavy.
I then covered them in the tan color whe requested for the "skin". The arms & legs are toothpicks covered in clay & added into the armatures with liquid clay so they are very sturdy.
They are about 3 inches tall.
Here they are all done!
Pretty cool huh? Different for sure!
Anyone want a cool cake topper??!
