Beach manga girl ^^

Beach manga girl ^^

Beach manga cake for my friend’s birthday and my first attempt to model a woman body (and half naked). It was sooo difficult that I almost gave up :( I was making it from fondant (didn’t manage to buy gum paste which could be better, right?) and I tried to use forms for woman body modeling. But they did not help me at all, I think it was even worse than if I would have done it on my own. I was dissappointed and nervous and called my husband for help :) He helped me to model body, I did the face and rest of the body and cake of course :)
I welcome every help or link to great tuorials about modeling people. My fondant body was cracking all the time and so did the hair :(
Thank you in advance for your help!

Btw: I’ve already seen some tutorials on the Internet and there everything looked so easy to make and bodies looked so smooth like if they were Barbies :D I do not know where I made a mistake :(

So pretty!! You did a brilliant job!! I think you should try gum paste next time, you will find it much easier!! Still lovely though!! :-) x
