These zombie love birds are actually Halloween presents for my niece and nephew. They are polymer clay ornaments sculpted over hollow egg shells.
The lady bird for my niece, Jessie, is a mainly frilly with a touch of ick. The one for my nephew, Ryan, oozes ick, but that was a happy accident. I had his head and wings sculpted and cured when I dropped him on the floor. The break looked so cool that I decided to try to secure the edges to salvage it. After several layers of “guts” and varnish, it turned out great!
