Everyone has been talking about and testing the new Pardo Clay by Viva Decor, but did you know they had a precious metal colour paint?
Viva Decor Precious Metal Colours Review - Hi Gloss Metal Effect Varnish
Something else to have to try!
I've already am curious to try out the new Pardo Clay by Viva Decor, a new line of polymer clays that is beeswax based. Just recently introduced to the North American Market.
The distributor was kind enough to included some of the new Precious Metal Paints in Leslie's order to try. The new paints come in a collection of bright, metallic colors, that are mixable and seem to be created primarily with gold, silver and pearl mica pigments. Leslie said you can achieve a very high gloss metallic look with just one coat, even on black polymer clay. She works with miniatures and was impressed with the one coat coverage, and the gloss varnish finish that was nice and thin that they don't fill in tiny details!

Miniatur Wunderland largest model railway / railroad in the world - VIDEO
The image video of Miniature Wunderland Hamburg http://www.miniatur-wunderland.com/ , the largest model railway in the world and one of the most successful permanent exhibitions in Germany.
I am in awe, and now have to visit Germany just in search to see this exhibition!
One of the many reasons I love miniatures and you will love them to once you have seen this!!!
It's simply unbelievable. The Miniature Wunderland model railroad in Hamburg , Germany is the largest in the world, covering 16,146 square feet of space with more than 10,000 train cars running around its 6.8 miles of HO scale track. Now, the makers of this huge layout have created a video that gives you a jaw-dropping look at the vast scope of this intricate work of art.Its construction started in 2000, and is still underway, with a tiny airport due for completion by the end of this year. This is just the beginning — there are plans to double the layout by 2014. We especially like the Las Vegas portion, complete with dazzling LEDs lighting up the night.Watch the new video above to get the full impact of this remarkable achievement, which has taken in excess of 500,000 working hours to build. There's good reason why this is Germany 's most popular attraction, already visited by more than 5 million flabbergasted tourists
Hope you Enjoyed!!!!

CraftyGoat's Notes: Review: Pardo Jewellery Clay
Well this is the most informative of all reviews about this clay. I agree with everything Angela says here in regards to the clay, the stickiness, the appeal of the colors, the lack of colors available in store comparative to ordering online where you will have to pay shipping on top of an already expensive product, and the overall cost compared to the other clay brands, etc.. She does several test on the clay from stressing the clay bending it, using a laser transfer, then antiquing with paint, alcohol inks and finishing with Future Floor Acrylic wax as a finish. A must read if your interested in this product.
