3-D Picture Top Layer

Once we think that we have the clay formed the way we want, and we're ready to lay the image over it, we go ahead and apply a layer of glue right on top of the clay. We cover the whole, the whole area of the clay, and this will help us put the napkin, let it stick over the clay, but also, the glue makes it, the the moisture in the glue will make it even look a little bit thinner. And this will also create a a look that that lets the image of the napkin kind of just melt into the clay underneath, and also, we'll apply a coat of glue on top of it, which will also help this, and that will really complete this 3D effect that we're looking for. It's much easier to just glue, to lay it over. Don't have to, usually don't have to worry too much about areas folding over, since we're not gluing the napkin itself; we're gluing the bottom part of the the the surface of the clay. We go ahead and just fold it over the area, and it could be, any parts that are hanging over could just be folded down as much as possible. If the edges hang over and actually touch the the part of the the board, the the back of the picture frame, we can just take some glue and apply it over the top and paint around it, over the edges as well. That'll help it stick to the board. So we can really see that once the image is placed over the clay, and the glue is applied on top it really makes it just blend into the clay and stand out, and gives a really, really an amazing effect. And it really looks very lifelike; this 3D type of effect on the picture. People will really wonder how you did it.
