How to make miniature modelling clay oranges
Anon sez "Step-by-step photos showing how to make miniature (about 5mm diam) model oranges from modelling clay. (Oranges are symbolic of gold and wealth for the Chinese, hence they're all over at the Lunar New Year.) The detail is impressive." Link
UPDATE: J Bryan sez: "This is the site that the miniature orange tutorial originated on. Polymer clay is a special subject to me and the artists hold a special place in my heart and it is important to me that their work is credited when possible. [Angie Scarr] is a fantastic artist and it is good to see her work showing up in other languages, but she is the one who originated this realistic method."
