Applejack Buckin' a Tree

This was my first original clay sculpture made out of some cheap non-drying polymer clay. I'll have to switch to something bake-able like Sculpey if I make too many more of these. AJ has a wire skeleton to keep her from sagging like some of my other sculptures have done. It took a long time to figure out how to make the tree stand up, and I finally settled on a hollow cardboard frame with wire supports. I'd like to make the rest of the mane six at some point, but I don't think I have enough time and clay to do such elaborate scenes.
