Miniature Mini Subway Party

Recently I did this miniature mini subway using air dry clay ( I only use air dry clay for all my food and figurines ) .  To make it look like a Christmas party  ( although now is still too early) I added a red ribbon on the tray.  I made few tasty sandwich fillings for my miniature subway because I love to eat bread with tuna, egg, ham etc.  Hope you like it !

I called them mini subway because they are very very small.

Miniature Mini SuperGirl

This is really hard because the figurines are too small, the height of this miniature mini super girl is about 2.5 cm , I try to make 2 cm but it does not look good so I decided to keep it at 2.5cm.  The fat supergirl is about 3 cm in height.




My handmade miniature clay supergirl 2.5 cm tall (left one)


As I am using air dry clay (water resistant type) the figurine dry out very fast 



It is so small and and not easy to handle, this is the 3rd one I finally got right. 



I like this fat super girl ! Ha ha...can't fly at all because of her weight.  I keep this for myself.

Miniature Table of Sushi

 Miniature Japanese food is one of my popular course among all the making fake food series.  To make a plate of sushi shown below take longer time than other food as more artwork is needed when making fake sushi.
