Sculpting a baby out of polymer clay is a rewarding and stress relieving hobby for me. I got started almost 3 years ago when I (by accident) happened upon a listing on eBay from someone who had sculpted one. I was immediately intruiged & mesmerized and decided I wanted to try my hand and this hobby. Now, ideally I would love to post a free guide on how to sculpt but you can only list so many pics in guides (I believe up to 10) and in order to effectively show someone how to sculpt a baby from start to finish I would need more than 10 pics. Bummer. But don't fear.... I did the next best thing in this guide. I listed online sites and tips for you to get free tutorials or paid for tutorials. This information for new sculptors is pricess. If you aren't aware of what I am talking about then check out some babies I have sculpted by hand out of clay....

How they start out as.... just from a lump of clay.

One of my favs... this is a realistic looking baby boy.
