Mexican cuisine ATC

Hi all!
First of all, ladies, I need some support, being nervous lately. Last weekend had to call an emergency for my doggie, and today we are just back home from the surgery. She's a strong little old lady, she's almost 16 now, but so far she feels good sleeping on my lap. Poor little thing, I'll have to perform a lot of manipulations to her tonight... Send us some smiles, please, we need it for recovery!

And now to the post subject. I had two ATCs: Italian cuisine and French cuisine. And I'm going to continue the series.
I found a challenge
Нашла челленж, хочу поучаствовать: Challenge for clay/ - #4, food miniature, till the 20th of May.

I thought it would be a great try!!! I used clay for creating three traditional mexican dishes.
Использовала полимерную глину (флер-груп) для создания трех мексиканских блюд

There's my entry:


First dish: guacamole

A half of avocado is made of clay, a bead is in th center. Painted with acrylics. a pile of guacamole with little red chunks (microbeads), and a couple of paper chips.
Check out the size of avocado and its rough colored skin:

Гуакамоле. Половинка авокадо из глины с бусинкой-ядром, покрашено акрилом. Оцените морщинистую кожицу сзади и размер ;) Плюс кучка закуски с микробисером и пара кукурузных чипсов из бумаги

Second dish: carnitas tacos

Taco shells are made of paper (crimpled and painted); the stuffing consists of tiny clay pieces: tomatoes, meat, greens, even tried to make a smaaaall asparagus stem. The green leaf under tacos is also made of clay =)
Мясные тако. Лепешки из бумаги, а листик салата и начинка - глиняные.

Third dish: tres leches (three milks) cake:

Clay + paint (+wire for cherry stems). Sponge cake with cream and topping and a cherry for embellishment.
Please, check out the size and the texture =)


I really loved the cake texture, though i tried to make it for the first time ever.
Торт "три молока". Давно мечтала сделать микро-бисквит, вдохновляясь работами marusic. Вышло, конечно, не так гениально, но для первого раза результат, имхо, очень неплох =) Соус - краска. Вишенка с листиком из глины, черешки - проволока.

Thanks for looking! Спасибо, что зашли!
