Molding is an interesting and useful activity for children, contributing to the development of precise finger movements and spatial imagination, which brings up assiduity and ability to bring things to the end. In many respects the creation of three-dimensional figures is similar to the process of magic: from a clump of plasticine, clay or polymer, a quite nice, like living creature, is obtained. Especially love kids to sculpt domestic and wild animals, and, perhaps, one of the most popular crafts from plasticine is a dog. In the above-mentioned master class we will tell how to mold a dog from plasticine. In order to make it more clear how to make a dog out of plasticine, we painted the process of sculpture in stages.
Molding a dog from plasticine
The child will need:
- plasticine of brown, white and black colors;
- stack (but the toothpick also fits);
- a small piece of oilcloth or a plank, so as not to soil the workplace;
- dry cloth for hands.
Completing of the work
- Break off a piece of brown plasticine part. Circular movements of the palms roll ovoid. It will be the trunk.
- Breaking off the brown plasticine pieces of a little smaller size, we roll two ovoid - the head and muzzle of the beast. We connect both ovoid, well with your fingertips.
- We roll out five small identical sausages with longitudinal movements of palms of plasticine of brown color. These are blanks for the four legs and tail.
- Break off small pieces from the white clay. We will need them to create bright spots on the figure of the dog.
- We roll two small sausages and flatten them. It will be doggystyle hanging ears. They can be stacked on a stack.
- We pluck out the very tiny pieces of plasticine and roll the balls with the tips of our fingers to create the peephole, the spout and the tongue of the animal.
- We connect a head and a trunk, lacing at a place of connection by fingertips. Stick to and attach the paws, tail, ears. Paws adorn with white specks. Stack the claws on the front and hind legs. For the peephole in the beginning we make small lozenges of white color, and already from above we make black pupils. The tip of the nose from the black plasticine ball is adhered to the muzzle. Red ball, designed for the tongue, flattened and cling.
A dog made of plasticine, made by own hands, can "settle" on the shelf of the closet in the children's room, and can be presented as a gift to your beloved grandmother or playmate. In any case, the kid will be proud that he knows how to make such wonderful crafts!
From clay, you can sculpt other animals, such as a cat .
