This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The left side has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
So after having this account for nearly 2&1/2 years, I have FINALLY put up some of my work. I hope to put up more soon, but if the past is any indication, it might be another 2 years or so before I get around to it. Hopefully sooner, but I can't make any promises.
Thank you so much for the comment you left on my page! I really appreciate it & i know you're a wanna be novelist, so i reckon you should put some of your literature on deviant!
The problem with that is that unscrupulous people could click "select all," "copy," and "paste" and suddenly steal my writing. I also draw, and I think some of my sketches are way better than some of my sculptures. The reason I only post pictures of my sculptures here is because no one can steal the actual sculptures via the internet. I don't care if people "steal" photos of my sculptures, because that gains them nothing: they can't get my sculptures themselves by mere copying and pasting. Posted drawings (where the photo is the art, as opposed to my gallery where the photo visible to the public is not the art itself) and posted writings can be all too easily stolen. After all, an unscrupulous person would have no regard for any copyrights I would have (or claim to have) on my work, and if the unscrupulous person is also computer savvy, nothing would stop them from taking my work. This is also why I do not maintain a blog.
I apologize for my verbose soapbox. Thanks for the encouragement, though. I do hope to actually publish (like, for real, with physical paper in bound books) someday, Lord willing.
Just different colors of Sculpey. I think they call it a polymer clay? So, that and the hands God gave me. And occassionally I use a "custom-bent" paperclip to form little details. ... Oh yeah, and for larger forms (such as the momma bunny), I use crumpled up tin foil on the inside and form the Sculpey around it.
good grief, no need to apologize! I get like that too with stuff, asking every detailed little question to make sure I understand things waaaaaaaaaay better than I probably need to.
No, it won't explode. Most of the time, I use aluminum foil (which can be found in kitchens often). Funny enough, get this: for the momma bunny, (if I remember correctly) I think I actually used old chocolate candy wrappers (likely from Easter candy) rolled up together into little foil balls. And yes, I molded the Sculpey around that. And no, nothing bad happened in the oven.
Actually, I think the Sculpey instruction book might have even recommended using aluminum foil (though used candy wrappers are probably not highly recommended) as the core around which to build the creature. The reasoning the book gave was that it doesn't use up (or waste) as much clay. You don't want to waste a huge mass of nice clay to fill the inside when only the surface (as opposed to the volume) will be tangible. Rather, use the foil to fill the space. It's mostly just about use of space and not using excess amounts of your nice Sculpey.
OK, so that was long, and now I'm sure anyone reading this thinks I'm a total freak for using old, used candy wrappers inside my sculptures, but hey, this place is called "deviant" art for a reason... right?
At long last, some deviations
