My cheap clay supply seems endless guys. For today I will show you my first attempt on a bobble head figurine.

There are many ways on how to make bobble heads. I wanted to try the most common/ basic one.

I started by mixing different coloured clay- just to get a unique look.

Then finish off the details.

The head should be hollow- so you can put in the long neck and well, get the wobbly/ bobbly effect- if there is such a word.

Here are both of the pieces. I was taking a break. TRANSLATION: I am wiping my fingers off some baby wipes as most of the pieces are sticking to my hands and tools.

How the hollow head looks like inside.

Here is the finished product. I cured it and put some clear nail polish. I dunno why I had been using nail polish recently. Probably because I am too tired.

So here are some bobble head pictures. Honestly, I enjoyed taking these pictures.

In comparison to my samsung s20 plus charger, this is how big my bear is.
