Razorback Musk Turtle

Here is the latest addition to my Animal Pendant Series, a little Razorback Musk Turtle.  As with all the other pendants, it is made of Premo polymer clay.  I cut out a stencil for all of the shell segments and models and molds for the head and feet.  Speaking of the shell, I also made a clay form, from which the turtle shell lays on and is molded and baked.  Once again, faux wood and faux leather techniques were used to create this little creature.
