Most of my pieces are less than 15" in height (although I do have some pieces larger than that). In some cases I have to lay the pieces on their side when baking or partial bake them using a heat gun. Laying the pieces on their side can be an issue because the clay softens when baking and can become deformed if there is not a lot of support for the sculpture. I have a larger sculpture that I'm dealing with now (Indigenous Allure tutorial) so once I approach baking it I will but together a tutorial for it. Regards, Gerald Hi Ed,

I find your work just astounding. I haven’t had time to go through all the tutorials but did have a question. I know pictures can be deceiving at times but most of your work seems to be of a larger size than most polymer clay work. Would you share how you bake these larger pieces? Thanks .
