We made a model volcano a couple of weeks ago using Fimo clay. I finally got Skyler interested enough to paint it yesterday. Now the hard part, waiting for the paint to cure completely so we can make it "erupt" using baking soda and vinegar.

| Laying down the base color. We used acrylic paints due to their ease of cleanup. |
 |
| Finished! He wanted it to look like the volcano from the Pixar short "Lava." I think we did pretty good! |
 |
| I made it so a tall double shot glass fits nicely inside so we don't have to worry about creating an accumulator effect with the larger volume of the base compared to the outlet. Nothing says mess like over doing a volcano eruption! |
