Started covering it with TG, the black and screened bits were from my old oven door

I made the comb from polymer clay - LOVE it

I grouted the hen in black and white and have started on a back ground

Every time I see one of your projects, I want to find another hobby!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!

Awesome! Did I miss something? What is the chicken shape made from? As for a name, how about "Baked Chicken" since some of the pieces came from your oven? HAHA! ~Ann

Well Slowmedown do not sell your self short !! You rock and so do you nicethyme!! That is so cool what are you doing it on .I am a little confused .

Well I think your chicken clucks. LOL. I love it. The black from the oven door is just enough to make the chicken real looking.

Slow :) stop it! lol

thanks everyone, I'm quite pleased with her. Its just a piece of hardiebacker 10 X 8, I drew on a chicken and the cut out and glued on the word chicken in different sizes, bold and normal. To accentuate the shading and andamento.

Here's a cool site for those of us who might not have known what andamento was. It has all the mosaic terms in it..Must add, that chicken is one cool clukker!!!
