Turtles

This weekend I was experimenting with some new polymer clay figures. I'm toying with the idea of using some of my crafting to do some charity fund-raising. One of the ideas I designed was a turtle.

Ta da!

After I'd baked this little guy, I began to notice some problems. Most notably, that his neck is too narrow to hold up his big head. 

He tends to look like he is reading something.

So, here's take 2 with an internal wire supporting his head and a little more color planning. (The first turtle was made with random scraps which is why it is yellowish and pinkish)

Much better head placement.

If I'm going to use this little fellow for fund-raising, I'd like to give him a name. I'm open to any suggestions.
