Hey all you wonderful ladies, My sister wants me to make her a cake with a lady in a bikini kind of floating on the water. I don't know anything about modeling but I'm willing to learn. Can one of you ladies are all tell me the best way to go about this. Such as what medium to use: like gumpaste or fondant. What is the best way to shape her? What's the best way to color her.

Sorry for so many but I'm use to good old buttercream and all this is new to me. I've tried reading as much as possible but I'm still nervous.

Thanks so much,
Meemaw
