Check out Lorraine McKay's site... http://extra-icing.blogspot.com/ I LOVE her methods. I think there are some of her tutorials that you can get free...others are for sale. She is sooooo talented. Loe the facial expressions in her figures. I have not gotten that down yet.
I have several DVD's that I have purchased and love them too... You can also get Polymar Clay books and use their instructions. Pretty much the same methods... just keep everything food safe with gumpaste figures.
