Thank you :)
Could we still sell it even though it wasn't fired to become ceramic? If so, I guess it is worth less????Please.
Could you tell me please if the clay had been allowed to dry out fully before the plaster cloth was added or had it still been kept under the damp towel and plastic? Many thanks.

No, let the clay harden to a "leather hard" state which is stiff like wax but still has a large amount of water content. I kept a plastic bag over water based clay in between working to control the drying. You can keep clay leather hard for months if you control the drying, with the occasion spray of water or leaving damp towel over it while bagged. Good luck!
