Can anyone please give me an idea where to start on sulpting a clifford big red dog? Have one to do this weekend - time is running short. I appreciate anyone's help!!!!!

I don't have the thread bookmarked, but there is a thread on here somewhere where someone posted instructions on making a dog cake by cutting up round cake pans and piping the fur on. You'd have to do it a little differently because Clifford isn't shaggy, but it might give you a place to start. Search the forums for "dog cake instructions" or "puppy cake instructions."

Perhaps someone will see this that has it bookmarked and can lead you right to it.

You'll probably have to smooth your icing with a Viva (or your preferred choice of smoothing method) to get a smooth Clifford, sort of like the dogs in my photos.

Post a pic when you get it done!
