3. Roll out some beige polymer clay 1.5mm thick, and using the template and your needle, cut around the fish.
4. Bake all your polymer pieces, I baked mine in an oven at 130ºC for 30 minutes. Once baked, refine any rough edges using some sand paper and arrange.
It’s time to practise your sandcastle-building, as we create a miniature bucket and spade in the next instalment of our miniature beach scene series. In the meantime, discover even more tutorials and step-by-steps on our blog.
