Clay amiibo Figures with Lessons Learned: Okami, Ittle Dew, Gris, Child of Light Aurora, Dixie Kong, Arlo v.2

 

Aurora from Child of Light.  The first time I tried using wires for support.

Gris

Before I figured out how to use wire in my figures (and other useful tricks), I had a few, shall we say, learning experiences, where figures didn't turn out as well as I had hoped.

Ittle Dew, made without wires, with some compromises

Okami.  This was my impetus to start using wires.  The legs buckled during firing.

Dixie Kong, using wires

My second try at Arlo with Pikmin, using wires for support

Here's a video where I discuss the making of these figures, and experimenting with wire framing.
