In the process of excavating my room, I came across this basket of fruit I made in high school.

omg so cute! so ... that was some book by edward gorey?

also that orange is SUPER ADORABLE! I want a picture of it, I will have to look at the set.

Thanks!

I got curious and googled the caption under one of the paintings. Turns out it was from the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn!

Out of all the fruit, the orange is my favorite. (*shh* don't tell the others. (^_^)) Something about the texture and the little leaves on the top. (^_^)v

awwwwwwwwwwwww SO CUTE
What did you make the fruits out of? They look slightly transparent?

If I remember correctly, I used translucent Sculpey and added color to it. Not quite sure what I used for color. Probably pastels because that sounds like something I would have done. Or just paint. Sorry, that's not much help is it? (^_^;)

Dude, you totally fooled me there! I was scrolling down my f-list and thought for a sec you were taking pictures of a fruit basket, then saw the next picture with the scale and my jaw dropped! haha

I'm not sure how you could mold something that tiny, but your attention to detail is amazing. That and the set are amazing, it's like a masterpiece edition of Polly Pocket. :)

Thanks!

I was quite surprised myself when I came across them. I vaguely remembered making them, but I don't remember them being so realistic. I'm also quite happy with how the set turned out. Just the right kind of light at the right angle for those shadows. (^_^)v
