Bring a vibrant moth brooch to life with your own hands, following this detailed step-by-step polymer clay tutorial that guides you through the entire process, from the very first cut to the final glossy finish.

It's perfect for anyone looking to improve their coloring techniques and master the application of pastel or pigment on polymer clay. 

The tutorial shows you how to:

• shape a moth without cutters, refine its edges, and add structure 
• create the antennae
• shade, blend, and layer soft pastels or pigments
• build smooth gradients, depth, and striking contrasts with Pan Pastels and pigments
• choose the right brushes for applying pastels/pigments
  
• create a seamless back layer, add texture, and fix the brooch pin securely
• add final acrylic paint accents

What you'll receive:

• a 24-page PDF tutorial with detailed step-by-step instructions and around 100 process photos; it also includes a detailed supply list with the exact materials and colors I use
• a ready-to-print PDF that provides multiple sizes of the sketch, so you can choose the one that works best for you
• 18-minute time-lapse video of the coloring process
• a 7-page FAQ document with useful information about polymer clay to help beginners better understand this material and prevent certain issues
