Miniature Food Masterclass: Materials and Techniques for Model-Makers Review: Thorough, fun, inspirational, and good enough to eat! - As a fan of all things small, because small = cute (miniature ponies, sake sets, tiny roses, the smaller version of a squirrel [chipmunk]) I became enamored with the tiny apples and tarts I saw being sold as jewelry online. With a background in claying, I thought I'd give it a whirl myself. I soon found out about Angie Scarr and her amazingly realistic representations of food in clay. What hooked me was the realism, translucency, and delicacy of her onions - those are museum quality. While the onions aren't covered in this book, it does go into great detail with many other foods. Included are coconuts, avocado, celery, kiwi, tomatoes, olives, and peppers. You also can read a thorough discussion on all kinds of various techniques -tools, moulds, safety, and information about the clay itself. There is also a true-to-scale ruler included on the pages with good photographs of the end result, so you can really see what your goals are. Also of extreme importance is the color mixing guides. Every project includes this information, and as I am quickly learning, it's color that counts. The first cane I made was the banana cane. I was pretty impressed how it turned out, but I owe it all to her clear instructions and excellent photographs. The price I paid for this book is well worth it. Even if you don't end up making anything, it's fun to admire the adorable asparagus, the tiny cabbage, and the bell pepper slices. Review: Amazingly detailed dollhouse foods - Once again, Angie Scarr has given excellent instructions for making dollhouse foods the way she does. She shows how to make even the tiniest detail. An example would be a head of cabbage with ribbing and veining so that it looks very real. Many of her items need a second look to notice that they are not the actual food. This book is for the more advanced polymer clay miniaturist. While Ms. Scarr gives amazing direction, she doesn't tell how to make all the colors. She suggests the reader look to the actual food for variances in coloring. She encourages observation on the part of the miniature food maker so they can utilize the skills taught herein to apply to whatever other items they may want to make. The majority of the book is on caning. There is also much use of the Skinner technique, which she explains how to do. I highly recommend this book to those who want to make high quality foods for their dollhouse, display or to sell.
