Very nice!  Are these one-offs for personal use, or masters for moulding?

I think you should steal it and get Leon to use it as a master

Well it is mine...not sure if you can make moulds from fired clay though

You can make resin moulds from almost anything, as long as there's a solid surface with no holes or major undercuts, it should mould fine.  If the clay has been fired and isn't too brittle, the master would most likely survive the process as well.

All good, though the pic of the little castle with the tower is my favourite.

Hats off to Mrs Fenton

Always, Sir! The members of this forum are for the most part gentrlemen, and if not should at least deport themselves as such.

Now that we have ascertained the good, and doubltless much put upon Mrs F is a dab hand with the modelling clay (and am I the only one to wonder how they would fare in an aquarium?) might we now see a photo of Fenton himself in that jumper she knitted for Christams last year - the one with the jolly snowmen and reindeer faces?

Mrs F thanks  you all for the positive comments...Its the first she has done for 4-5 years so getting back in the swing of it all. Your words of encouragement  have meant more will be made

Well, I'm impressed. Pretty sure there'd be a market if Mrs F wanted to go into the master-making business.  :-bd
