So work are having an Easter egg decorating competition and it gave me some inspiration for new wee project! Initially I thought I’d do some sort of fantasy characters but then realised my freehand sucks! Looking on the interwebs for inspiration I then though maybe some sort of dragon eggs – should be simple enough to do. But then it hit – what could be worse than a global pandemic – that’s right an Alien infestation!

I decided to wrap the eggs in DAS clay to give them some texture and then add some green stuff for the details

I thought this looked *all right* but could do better – also wanted one where the egg was starting to open. I wasn’t happy with the way the green stuff worked out so for the next attempts I would use all clay.

At this stage I’m starting to get the feel for working the clay and actually really enjoying it – so I boiled up another 3 eggs and set to work.

Very happy with the results. Now to let them dry overnight and get ready for painting!

Probably the most original Easter egg take I have ever seen!
