Mouse, snake and egg polymer clay sculpture

This was a little tongue in cheek (or mouse in snake) egg and polymer clay creation. There is a cute little grey mouse which is poking out of the side of a snake.  The lump in the snake is created with a cockatiel egg covered with polymer clay, then hole drilled, and the body of the snake before and after was created with a rolled length of polymer clay then egg and body mweek_27_snake_egg_mouse1olded together. The snake diamond cane was applied to the outside after the parts were cured together, and the little mouse, created and cured separately was wiggled through the hole.  Positioning the mouse so that eyes and nose pointed outward was a little bit of a task (LOL). All in all, not my best egg sculpture, but it has a design potential to be fun to expand on.
