norajean_sf: the color does change let me show you something mommaclara2001: I love what translucent does. Rossija = Mary in Ohio: swatch card for orange? norajean_sf: and I'll get you the link for that, that is orange mixed with more and more translucent clay done as a color card norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/Tute-List norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/food/ Diner-Grp norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/food/ Diner-FruitNvegs jill_z_q: is that a dresser NJ? norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/Food/Citrus/2002-orange-grp msraven54 left the room norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/food/Citrus/2002-orange-mix norajean_sf: there norajean_sf: it's a color card for orange mixed with more and more translucent clay to see what ratio of translucent I need for different mini foods norajean_sf: if you do color cards, cure them, then see what you get norajean_sf: start with primary colors norajean_sf: red and yellow make a very dark orange lvmypolymerclay left the room norajean_sf: adding more and more translucent to that basic orange will get you ... blood oranges, tangelos, orange juice Rossija = Mary in Ohio: so lots of translucent & very little color norajean_sf: depending on how much translucent you use to the mix mommaclara2001: Do you add white to it to lighten, or just more translucent? norajean_sf: but you need to do the mixing, cure them and see how they look with a finish on them norajean_sf: No white, unless you want a pastel color, white cuts down the amount of light that goes into your finished item, that goofs up the juicy look mommaclara2001: Ok, thanks norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/Tute-List norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/ColorCard/MainGroup norajean_sf: Check out the Color cards in this section jill_z_q: what is that in the webcam NJ? jill_z_q: your color chart jill_z_q: ? norajean_sf: sorry was reeling in Doug Electron Forge (electron_forge) joined the room norajean_sf: so he can save the room norajean_sf: Here he is norajean_sf: Hey honey jill_z_q: Hi doug Rossija = Mary in Ohio: Hi Doug! mommaclara2001: Hi Doug norajean_sf: just reviewing the color cards poonkie2: hi Doug! norajean_sf: Biz-Archive/ColorCard/MainGroup Electron Forge: hi all. Sorry I'm late vickir1: hi Doug Tammy: hi doug mommaclara2001: How are you, Doug? Electron Forge: things have been busy here getting the house ready to sell and all so I have been out of the loop a bit. I miss demo! Alix: Hi ... Anything left to see? I been slaving over someone else's virus prob for the whole time ... sniff sniff ... whine whine norajean_sf: No worries, we were doing mini food and I don't think that is the topic you would find the most facinating norajean_sf: like you want to make mini sandwich earrings or something norajean_sf: LOL norajean_sf: but this part of the demo you can utilize, I'll bet mommaclara2001: Did you get it fixed Alix? Electron Forge: did the tissue blade super buy happen yet? norajean_sf: these are color cards, I mix clay colors and cure them on a sheet of clay, for often colors with translucent will change when cured, colors will look different when a splash of finish si on them norajean_sf: Post to the list Doug, I don't know for sure. Rossija = Mary in Ohio: don't think so, Doug. Though I could have missed it. norajean_sf: the little hearts are the amounts of another color to get the color of the circle there norajean_sf: the ribbons are the starting color jill_z_q: no not sure what happen to that Electron Forge: wasn't sure. Been away from my computer for a couple of days at a shot and then got slammed with digests. had to purge and start over. norajean_sf: so clay staight out of the pack are the ribbons, the twisted ropes are when two colors are mixed and the ribbon below it is the result, the circles are that mixed color with different ratios of other colors. Now you can make up your own way of remembering your mixes. norajean_sf: this is the way I remember my mixes. Everyone can make up their own symbols to remember, just make sure that you press the clay the same thickness, you use the same cutter tool, be it a soda straw or a kemper tool to cut the amounts Alix: ell meabout it ...I have about 40 unopened emails from the last two days. norajean_sf: so you have a standard that is repeatable norajean_sf: only 40? norajean_sf: LOL norajean_sf: with building the city I won't tell you how many I have norajean_sf: there's a lot of behind the scenes things the clay list never sees norajean_sf: Oh let me show you something else here with color cards Electron Forge: yeah I haven't clayed much in the last week or two either. My snake-bat thing is still roughed in, scale canes made and need to move ahead on it mommaclara2001: Had my computer in the shop being worked on, and had a bunch , when I got it back. About three days worth. poonkie2: well, I have 367 unopened emails from the group... norajean_sf: you can keep track of your blends, blends done with animal colors and twisted make great sea shells norajean_sf: nifty trick poonkie2: great idea! Electron Forge: cool norajean_sf: Then if you're searching for a color, like we had to do for Fushia, you can make a "flow chart" tracking your experiments norajean_sf: I didn't know where the color mixes were going to go, so I left a clay trail for me to follow, or not to follow as the case may be vickir1: that's an awesome idea-thanks NJ Electron Forge: do the different shapes indicate amounts? Electron Forge: 3D clay flowchart! norajean_sf: the different shapes mean how many portions of another color were added to get the resulting color thost little bits are stuck on norajean_sf: yup, 3D color flow chart, a record of clay color mix experiments norajean_sf: Start with primary colors, make secondary colors Electron Forge: i figured it must. Just have to come to grips with a "system" of my own to be repeatable norajean_sf: work out your own system, just make the measures standard norajean_sf: same sheet thickness, same tool used, so your portions are the same norajean_sf: then you know the ratio you need Electron Forge: I stepped in that pile on the pool shark. "Write this down idiot, naw I'll be fine, opps I need more of that blue norajean_sf: take the primary colors of red, blue and yellow and add white to them, see what you get with more and more white to add. Alix: Doug, If your using Premo, You can find useful color mixing info via GHrumbacher oils ... they use the same colors. norajean_sf: yes, Premo uses color hues that are standard in the art world Electron Forge: I'm still at the sculpey III stage. It cheap and readily available locally if I need to make a last minute run norajean_sf: I posted to the list today our official online clay vendors norajean_sf: who give us a discount Electron Forge: I hit Rickie Beth's earlier. Great prices on Kato norajean_sf: and they have all the colors you need, the effort of going around trying to find fresh clay in the color you need uses gas money Electron Forge: LOL norajean_sf: your time and the last of your religion Electron Forge: true norajean_sf: makes me say shithelldamn norajean_sf: so I order online, even though San Francisco has a ton of stores Alix: BIG discount ... I looked at Pearl Catalog and Similar Premo pound Prices .... Would you believe $14,50 tpo Kaeren's $9.30? Tammy: just trying to ind a place around here makes me say that norajean_sf: Exactly Alix norajean_sf: LOL norajean_sf: I'd rather keep the hair on my head, thank you, rather than pull it out having to deal with another snot nose sales clerk with a pierce on her lip Electron Forge: I was going to see about buying some better stuff soon. For that I will have to go online and buy from our friends Electron Forge: it's too late for my hair honey norajean_sf: the attitude of some of the sales clerks here in San Francisco makes me want to drag them outside for a whipping norajean_sf: so I order online and keep the peace norajean_sf: LOL Alix: Only prob with Karen site is I have to make too many cjhpoices because I want everything. poonkie2: Electron Forge: NJ Smackdown 2005!
