Polymer Clay. Please say hello to Zeak

Ok, in another thread I mentioned my polymer clay zombie buddy Zeak. Now he is very shy and before I tell you where you can see him I want to give you some background on him. I adopted Zeak about 1 month ago. He used to work for the U.S. Government as a crash test zombie (please don't mention that I told you this he is quite embarrassed about that part of his life). He lost his body during his last test and when they were unable to find enough of it to glue back together they put Zeak out to pasture. I saw and ad for adoption on and just felt so bad for him and so I took him in. Now he spends his days sitting on a little shelf watching TV and eating potato chips (personally, I think he is addicted to them, but since he doesn't put on weight I just let it slide). Some day I hope to make him a new body and maybe a wife and a few kids. He says he would like that more than anything, other than another bag of potato chips. You can view Zeak at Click on the "Crafts" gallery and you can see him there. Please forgive the tongue, he was in a bad mood when I took the picture (he had just run out of potato chips and I didn't have time to get to the store). You can also see a Clay Rose set I made as well as a foam stamp sand dollar I made for an mini ocean album. Personally I don't like the inside of the album, but I like the sand dollar. I also wish I had glued it on instead of using wire, I don't like the wire on the inside cover. I also included a mint so you can gauge the size of the album. Actually I am lucky that Zeak doesn't have legs otherwise that mint would have been gone too. He eats like a horse... that's "LIKE" a horse folks! Robert BTW The was recently shut down due to protests. People didn't like the idea of crash test zombies being adopted out to people. I hear that the ones that didn't get adopted are now forming their own bowling league and the ones without bodies have volunteered to be the bowling balls. I don't want to know where...

My mom has a whole box of what she calls (and labeled the box) "UFO's) aka Un-Finished Objects. LOL What can I say, I take after my mom?

As a polymer clay artist and scrapbooker I can answer this. LOL. you can paint the polymer clay after baking with acrylic but not before. You would have problems with bubbling and such. A very good source for polymer info and a great community is

Ooooh! bubbling pink paint on a zombie! Cool!!!!!! I think Zeak is about to get a girlfriend. They can merry later, but right now a good long courtship is proper!

Coddingtown is a mall. There is a hotel close to it but not really related to Codding and his mall.
