Making Sculpture Using Sugar Pastillage

Not realized, actually i'm already on week 5 of my last semester. Haha and for our third product, pastillage. First time hearing it i was blurred and don't even know what is that pastillage. Sir Azrul told us it is actually a dough of icing sugar and gelatin.

 and I was Ohhh. But still what it can do? So he said this dough is used to make a sculpture because after a several hours, it may become hard but it can be easily break if thin. So our patience is really important and  also our creativity to makes our ow Pastillage Sculpture ...
Sketch of our pastillage
As you can see above, that is our sketch and inspired by this picture that was found on google...


Yeah we only take the idea from the flower and give it a new looked and mix it with our idea. Though it was just our first time but we take risk in making something seem hard...

It must keep seal because if not. it will dried become hard and wasted because cannot be shape...

Fazrul thin the dough using
pastry roller to get the ideal thickness
for every part of our sculpture.
Petals
Our skyscrapers & couple
Leafs for flower
For our first time, this steps take our time for whole 8hours of class. Then wait it harden for next week arrangement. Yeah glue time ~
Haidhar checked whether their product break o not
Then after we confirm it harden and strong enough to get assemble. We discuss and then we realized something that it won't be like our sketch. Totally ! so by keeping it the original concept. First we assemble the flower and leafs...
Our first design after assembled
Then we remembered that we have the couple and another two skyscraper. We change our design a bit but keep its hero which is the flower, thank to Fazrul giving the great idea. By using the skyscraper behind, we used it as base so it will become either unique or risky.
Finished product
As expected it beautiful and Alhamdulillah it finish. About 3 week. ^^
