Ultimate Paper Mache | Garden Toad Made with Weatherproof Paper Mache Clay @UltimatePaperMache | Uploaded July 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
This is the second video in this series about my garden toad sculpture. In the first video I showed you how I used a squash leaf to make something for the toad to sit on. Those long toes would be very easy to break, even though I made them with Magic Sculpt.
