Wow. I haven't seen that before. It sounds ideal. I will see if I can get it in the UK. Many thanks, Manuela :dance: :dance: :dance:
I have had varied success creating claws, noses etc. with a variety of clays. I have found that the tips of Fimo claws tend to break fairly easily. Milliput is a little stronger and doesn't need heat fixing. The strongest I have found so far is Aves Fixit. This is very strong, but then needs painting as it comes in an opaque grey colour. I would really like to find something which is very strong but also has more of the slightly transparent appearance of a natural claw.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Henry is just lovely. I love the tipped mohair and his eye colour really matches beautifully.
Thank you, ladies. I love him, but my other half thinks he looks like ET.
Hi Becky. I have added a rim of black epoxy clay around the eye, then carefully painted the lower edge with white oil paint. I have also used a little of the white paint to shade around the eye. I found that without this treatment, it was very difficult to see Pandy's eyes against the black mohair.
This is Pandy. I have been working on him for the past three weeks. He is only the second panda I have designed and made. He is a prototype and as such, will be staying in my hug.

Hi Bobbie
I see you are using some CSS div tags. One way of achieving what you want is to use a heading tag and then redefine it using CSS. In the example below, I have used an h2 heading, but you could use h1 instead. The web browser will resize the text enclosed by h1 and h2 tags according to its own set of rules, but you can redefine those rules by using the example coding below in the head section of your webpage. I'm not sure how much html you already know, but let me know if you need more detail.
Regards
Sue
