Premo Sculpey Polymer Clay Colors - Raw vs Baked

In this video I will go through all of the Premo Sculpey Polymer Clay Colors, and show you show the differences between raw versus baked samples.

Some polymer clay colors change when baked... we often refer to this as color shift. Each brand is different as to how much color shift can occur after baking, as well as each color within a brand.

I thought I would show you every single color in the current Premo Sculpey line, so you can see a side by side comparison of each color and how they look when cured.

You will see that some colors don't shift at all, where others get darker or more translucent. Knowing this about the colors you use, will yield more predictable results with your polymer clay projects.

I hope to do similar videos of other polymer clay lines in the future.

This is why you always swatch EVERY new art supply, even clay. It makes sense that colors change when you bake clay. Most things change color when you bake them, food, clay, etc. It would also be a good idea, if you need a specific end color, to mix the color you THINK you need, and then bake a small sample piece of the color to see if it changes at all and adjust accordingly.

I want to thank you so much for *all* of your videos. I am literally brand new to polymer clay (bought mostly the "right" stuff because of your videos). I'm slowly making my way through all of your videos and Oh My Gosh, I didn't know there was so much I didn't know!!! Your voice is so pleasant and friendly and every video I've watched so far is packed full of information. So, again, thank you for all the time you have spent doing all of this for your viewers.

Thank you for making videos! They're so helpful for me--I'm still a beginner!

[dynapig]

Thank you for sharing. I am in the early stages of learning how to use polymer clay to make lathe turned pens. I will be making a point to watch more of your videos in the future.

Wow that was great. I've been mixing my own colours from Kato primary colours and find it hard to work. I've got a lot of the new Sculpey colours but was confused by them. Of course nine years ago isn't exactly new any more but it's all new to me. Thanks.

Thanks so much for doing experiments like this it’s so helpful and means I don’t have to buy every colour that exists just to know

[patriciavilla]

Love your tutorials. Easy to understand and follow.

Thank you for the work :) I´ve made something like this with my Fimo colors. Ive baked the colors and glaced them. So I can see how it looks with a shiny or a mat finish. I like the idea of raw vs baked very well :)

This is great Cindy, thanks for showing us how they change color.  Very interesting.

Just came across your channel and I really like your setup!! I'm rather new to clay and find a lot of help in your videos. Thanks for the tips.

This was so helpful, thank you for creating this video!!

Another useful video Cindy, thanks. I love your thorough approach. If you ever get the opportunity to do a video like this with the fimo range that would be fantastic too. I liked that clay with the little pearl-like flecks in it. :)

[kayelynndrawz]

I really enjoy and appreciate your videos.

[HolziWolziWooo]

So, so helpful, thank you :) just ordered some of that pearl!

I'm so sad that the colorful translucents were discontinued. They are so beautiful.

You showed me in person, exactly what I was looking for, a current color chart? When was this video produced?
