Hey gang,
Well, after looking around for some decent clay (minimal shrinking and no cracking), I found Claystone self hardening clay at dickblick.com.
I sculpted ( :lol if you can call it sculpting) the Indy Sankara stones from solid clay. It took about a week for the outside to harden enough to the point where I could sand it down some. I think the middle may still be a little soft, but I can't really tell. I then gave them a multilayer paint job using red oxide primer (as both a primer and a secondary color), gloss brown, flat black, metallic brass and a final clear coat.
The antidote vial is from a member, Capt_Zak, on COW. I used windex as the antidote.
Anyhow, on to the pics:
Enjoy.
