Covering sizes from 0.8cm through to 6.8cm, the range within a single pack gives enough variety to suit different scales of figure, from small decorative pieces through to larger character models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003ePlastic body parts are a popular shortcut in polymer clay, air dry clay, and modelling clay character work — particularly for beginners and children who are learning to work with clay and want satisfying, well-defined results without the advanced sculpting skill that hand-modelled extremities require. The pieces are simply pressed into the soft clay before baking or drying, where they bond with the clay surface and become a permanent part of the finished figure. The plastic is compatible with oven-bake polymer clays at standard baking temperatures, and with air dry clay where no heat is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe assorted colour selection covers natural skin tones alongside brighter and more fantastical colours, giving flexibility across both naturalistic and more imaginative character designs. With 26 pieces in a pack there is enough to make multiple figures, or to experiment across several different designs before committing to a final piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you use plastic body parts with clay?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePress the pieces firmly into the soft clay before baking or drying — the clay wraps around the base of the piece and bonds to it during the curing process. For polymer clay, bake according to the clay manufacturer's instructions. For air dry clay, allow to dry fully at room temperature. The pieces can also be attached after curing using a strong craft adhesive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre they compatible with all types of clay?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — they work with polymer clay, air dry clay, and modelling clay. For oven-bake polymer clay, ensure the plastic is suitable for the baking temperature specified by the clay — most standard polymer clays bake at 110–130°C which is within the tolerance of standard plastic components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat sizes are in the pack?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e26 pieces ranging from 0.8cm to 6.8cm in assorted sizes and colours — suitable for figures of different scales.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre they suitable for children?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe smallest pieces at 0.8cm are not suitable for children under 3 years due to choking risk. For older children they are an excellent addition to clay modelling projects, helping to produce more finished and characterful results with less skill required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Creativ Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57223958364535,"sku":"78267","price":3.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0076\/2288\/5428\/files\/bodyp1.jpg?v=1782459597","url":"https:\/\/craftandcanvas.co.uk\/products\/plastic-body-parts-for-clay-modelling-assorted-colours-26-pieces-0-8-6-8cm","provider":"Craft and Canvas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
