Ceramic Gnomes

Description

I have been a clay artist for many years, but since I got into making a living with 3D computer art the chances to get my hands in wet squishy mud are rare. These gnomes, however, are an integration of the work I do in clay and the work I do on the computer!

The design for these lil' guys was actually created on the computer. I designed the hollow gnome in 3D studio max, and had this printed by a 3D printer in a nylon plastic material that is both rigid and flexible in such a way that it becomes a push mold. So now, I can push mold into mold, and pop these babies out!

What's great is that I can manipulate the resulting gnome's hat in various ways to give it a little more character. And of course, I can glaze them any colour I want.
