Biker Wedding



I had to think long and hard as to how to tackle the motorbike. I wanted it to look as authentic as possible without going into every minuet detail.

All ready to go into the oven, bits of greaseproof paper hold the important bits while it bakes.

I have to admit I am pretty pleased with it, Groom next I think.

Easy rider!

Now has hair, still no eyes.

Say 'Hello' to Smudge.

He likes to ride pillion!





and now for the Bride.




I wanted her slightly leaning forward so she can grasp the bottom of her dress to show her Mother of Pearl biker boots off!



All they need now are eyes to see the road ahead.



Back view of dress and bike.



Bike washed, nice and shiny, shoes and boots polished all ready for the open road.

I have really enjoyed creating this model, I hope it shows in the detail. The bike took a little thinking about but I am very happy with it.

Although John & Denise have not named the day as yet, the model will be put to good use on display at Wedding Fayre's and then given to them for their big day as a present from me.

Football Fans



Here we have the start of a football supporters wedding. Introducing Dad and son.



As you may have guessed by this photograph the team they support is Newcastle United, but it could just have easily been Sunderland or Everton, the choice would be yours. He is clutching his football just in case he gets the chance of a quick kick about either before or after the ceremony and he has donned his bobble hat.




oops in his haste he has forgotten to tuck in his shirt.



Dad is all spruced up but he wouldn't be complete without his Newcastle United scarf.



and here we have the pair of them together, are they going to a football match or a wedding? We will see what the bride has to say about that shortly!




and here she is, not quite ready yet a few stages to go.




With matching flowers!



She is wearing her hair up for the occasion and has added a diamante hair band.



Here we are ready for the big day and possibly the football match later.




Hope you like them.

An Angler and his Bride

First things first, we have to have a body and that body has to have trousers, waistcoat, shirt and tie.

 

 
Next he gets his jacket and accessories.

He is an angler so he needs his fishing rod and if he has been lucky a fish on the end of his line. A few maggots crawling out of his pocket! and the compulsory camouflage hat.

Got a bit carried away with the bride and forgot to photograph her in stages. She is sitting on a tree stump.




Frying tonight! she is cooking the fish that her Groom has just caught. Need to hurry and get their eyes in before they have an accident!



This is the view from the back, I added flowers in her hair and she is sitting on a tree stump that is surrounded by grass and flowers.

Fish supper anyone! I think it is more of a skillet than a frying pan.

Here they are all done and ready for their tea, after they get married of course.

Hope you like them.

A Wedding Topper Cyclist



My consignment of clay arrived and this is the result. Hope you like it. Please feel free to leave any comments concerning anything on my blog. Thanks.

A wedding cake topper for the cyclists among you. I must admit this bicycle took a bit of doing, trying to keep it upright while it was cooking.



Next came his legs, feet and body.




Then his waistcoat, jacket and head.




He is holding onto the back of the bike (this also helped to steady things), he now has his hair and a flower in his lapel.




Handsome!




Now for his Bride, with her cocktail stick neck.



She has a bouquet of lavender and white roses and very small pearl buttons on the back of her dress. She also has the same flowers in her hair. Now all that is left to do is give them both eyes to see the world, hope you like them so far.



Now they can both see, shoes polished, tyres washed all ready for the big day.



Gazing up with adoration!



The back view, I only put a pedal on this side as the other was hidden by her dress. Hope you can see the pearl buttons down the back of her dress.


And this is Fido .................... waiting for a game of ball. Little accessories can be added into the mix.

The Happy Couple. First Wedding Topper

These toppers can be placed beside the Wedding cake. Smaller versions can be commissioned for on top.

Bride and Groom, they look a little like aliens at the moment but all that will change........... I promise!



I started to dress the bride, I had an idea what I wanted it to look like but by the time I finished the dress it looked nothing like the picture I had in my mind and sketched. I added small seed beads for detail over the bodice, around the bottom and on the back of the dress. She is armless but getting there.



Next it was the flowers, a bouquet of red and white roses.



Then on with the hair, hairstyles are not my strong point, never let me loose with a pair of scissors but with clay......... I don't think it looks too bad.



and here he comes ...............



A snazzy suit



No hands as yet, but not a problem.



All I have left to do is his hair. The bride has a carrier bag by her side and he is playing on his Wii with the controller in his hand and the console by his side. The people behind these two models are my eldest daughter and her soon to be husband. He is an avid game player, hence the controller and the Wii console and my daughter used to be an avid shopper who loved designer labels but now they are saving for the wedding she shops for bargains at Primark.

The finished happy couple, all ready for their big day.





I can build into any model, hobbies, occupations etc to add that little bit of humour and individuality.

Thanks for looking.
