Artist's Comments

This piece was created using a steak knife and a safety pin, it was "dubbed" the Alpha Unicorn by a close friend and art teacher who really wasnt sure about sculpting unicorns, Thanks to Chris Hood.

Alpha Unicorn Detail by *jshapeshifter is both beautiful and graceful, from the details of the fur and flowing hair to the penetrative gaze, it makes it hard to believe this was created solely with the use of a steak knife and safety pin. (Featured by ^Thebuild)

The detailing is amazing. The hair is very unusual but I like it. It gives it a more powerful feel than most unicorns.

His hair is amazing.

How did you do the little spines around his cheek? They are soo little and sharp it's amazing. Did you shape them, bake them seperately and then push them in later?

I've heard of people using heat guns to harden parts of super sculpey work without putting it into the oven. I haven't tried one before. Is there any websites/books about sculpting techniques with a heat gun?
