The piece finally dried! It's less sturdy than I expected it to be, but I'm honestly just glad that it stands on its own. I'm not gonna lie; its pretty ugly. But! It is much closer to my inspiration pics than I expected to get. Even though it doesn't look like it, this took so long to complete and I still haven't finished figuring out what the right proportions really are for the clay. I think with this batch I may have added too much cornstarch, which is what made it too sticky. I think if I had mixed the two recipes together from the get-go, I may have gotten more of a clay material. Maybe I'll give it one more shot someday. I do like the concept behind the piece and my original idea that stemmed from the ruins I saw in Italy, but there must be an easier to make material that I can use instead. the completed piece
