I'm a sucker for sculptures, so your clay stuff is nice to look at. If you're serious about doing sculptures that appear to be "flying" though (such as in the gelert (I think it's a gelert, i'm not up on Neopets at the moment), you should look into clear acrylic rods to use as bases rather then dark rods. Makes things a little more clean looking.

As well, please stack your images a bit more (as I have done in your post), so that the page is not stretched by all the thumbnails. Thanks.

I'm fairly sure you can find rods like that at most home improvement centers. If you buy them out of an art store specifically, you'll pay a lot more for them. However. Do you bake your sculptures in the oven? Because if you did, it would be trial/error for awhile as I do not believe you could bake your sculptures with the rods in them (not to mention, clay shrinks) but you can always drill into your sculptures afterwards to properly fit a rod so long as it's not actuall stoneware type clay.

Yeah, Its bake clay, But I have an Idea for what to do. I looked on ebay and there fairly cheap. Thanks a ton for the tip :hug:
