  Step 1

  Take a small portion of polymer clay (use whatever colour you'd like) and roll into a ball. Set this aside for later

• 

  Step 2

  Take the ball and roll it out. Ensure that one end is (slightly) bigger than the other (this will be the head, I'll explain in a later step)

• 

  Step 3

  Select another two small pieces of clay (these will be used for the leeches eyes) and roll them into two balls.

• 

  Step 4

  Flatten the two balls mentioned in the previous step

• 

  Step 5

  Attach the two flattened balls onto the cylinder you made in step 2; as you can see, the cylinder can be twisted into multiple different poses. It's all up to you!

• 

  Step 6

  Now take a needle/toothpick and add some details. I only added a mouth (eg. smile, frown, grimace, smirk)

• 

  Step 7

  Ta da! You have your leech. I don't have any photos of my painted ones, but you can paint stripes on the leech, or create strange patterns. (I myself prefer to make a stripped stocking look)

  I hope you enjoyed the tutorial!
