I made these before dinner today - warmed up the kitchen nicely :-D
Black and white Fimo.
248 249
I was improvising with tools - I used the handle of a pastry brush as a roller and did the rolling on an empty ziplock freezer bag because the fimo was sticking to the worktop a little.
I made my first cane! I put a white sheet on top of a black one, rolled it into a sausage, cut it in half, put one above the other and made them into a new sausage. They're all made from doing slightly different things with it. I'm rather happy with these - they'd be a bit more regular with a more consistent roller, but I can use them as is. The round oblongs along the bottom in the second picture are direct cross-sections of my cane. You can see it twists a bit as it goes along - the ones on the right are how it started. The rounds at the top in the second picture are also from direct slices. I did some more things to it to make the rest of them.
