well basically smoothed out a hollow with my finger made sure there were not blips so bacteria cant hide in there, then bumpified the outside and textured it with a toothbrush, then stuck it in the ovan!

et voila!

Looks great....I haven't used fimo so forgive the daft question, but once it's baked in the oven is it waterproof?
