1-12 Persimmons & Coca de Sant Joan

made out of polymer clay :) they are all approx 0.5cm wide.

 i had previously done some, but had a request for more. i always felt that the older persimmons i'd made were too big and the leaf portion was too thick for the scale.....so i was determined to make them paper thin this time.
compare and contrast :S

better yet, i had a real life model to work from :P problem is, by the time i got the mini ones done, the actual persimmons had been lying in my room for 3 days, and spots had started to appear T-T if necessary, they could probably be stippled with acrylics. we'll see.

big small photos are fun to look at! 

 Eva had mentioned these in an e-mail, and I had never even heard nor seen such a food item (of course! i'm such an ignoramus when it comes to foods -_-")
 so i made this Coca de Sant Joan for her :) i don't think she has time to read this post before we get to meet tomorrow, let's hope it'll still be a surprise tomorrow LOL
made an extra, actually this was the first one i made, but i felt it looked a bit too plain and ordinary. Eva does more fantasy minis, i hope she likes the one i made for her in the tray!

time for rest. weather wreaking havoc with my system again, puked my guts out 3 times today, and that's the less gross bit of what -actually- happened XD ;P :O~~~~~~~~ :X

  1. Nobody touch MY persimmons!!!!! They are MINE, all MINE! ;p

    Cindy, you have outdone yourself. I love these persimmons more than ever. And if you don't want to keep the old ones, let me have them as well. I still think they are beautiful. I hope the peppers are for me as well? And the chillis. And yes, the fish head curry :) but we can do that another day :).

    Been waiting for this post the last hour. Rest well, my dear.

    You bet your bottom dollar Eva's gonna be over the moon with your gift. They have gone to the Night Safari and will be back home late. :) so no worries...will be a darn pleasant surprise.
