Peacock in the technique of quilling - master class
So, in order to make quilling peacock we will need:
- strips for quilling by 5 mm;
- brown and green colored paper;
- piece of cardboard;
- glue;
- scissors.
Performance:
- We take the cardboard and draw a peacock in a thin pencil. You can print the template and circle.
- After drawing all the details, we temporarily put the template back and start making details for the bird. Let's start with the brightest and most beautiful - the tail. For the tail, we need 4 kinds of feathers, 4 pieces each. each. For this we take three strips: green, blue and red.
- We glue together.
- We twist into a tight circle.
- And we form a "drop" strongly squeezing one side of the circle.
- Also do the following 4 feathers in colors: dark green, yellow and red. Where red is inside, behind it is blue (medium color) and the last is dark green.
- The following view: the color inside is red, the middle color is blue, the outside color is yellow.
- And the last kind: inside - red, in the middle - yellow, external - blue.
- Then start twisting feathers for the body of the bird. A quarter of light brown and orange stripes.
- Gluing. Orange in the middle. We twist and form a "drop"
- Now we begin to twist the decorative elements. From a quarter of blue and orange stripes we twist a circle.
- Then we simply twist the blue circle from the half of the strip, just the blue circle from the quarter of the strip, and the circle from the red strip. From the red strip we make a beak.
- And also from light brown + orange and blue + orange colors we twist circles and form drops. Here such details should at us it will turn out.
- The most difficult, almost jeweler's work on creating a peacock quilling on the assembly scheme begins. We begin with the head. We measure a piece of a strip of dark blue color. Carefully, it's better to use a piece of paper, not a brush, put glue on the edge of the strip and spread it along the pencil.
- Then add three decorative elements to the winglet.
- Now we proceed to finish the trunk of the peacock with feathers. The scheme is simple. First feather glue with a sharp end down.
- The next two are the sharp end up.
- The next two - down, then three up and up to the end.
- We close the remaining lines of the wing of the neck and head with a strip along the contour. We glue the beak.
- Strip decorate the neck and glue the dark blue circles. At the end of the work we will clean the parts from the glue with a brush.
- The edge of the trunk is decorated with an orange strip. Add three dark blue circles and close the second orange strip.
- Now proceed to the tail. Step by step glued feathers.
- We spread decorative feathers. Below the blue-orange, and on the sides light brown + orange.
- Our tail is almost ready. We proceed to the design of the middle of the tail. We glue 6 blue strips (three on each side of the central feathers).
- Spread between the bands of circles of red and blue in staggered order.
- Now glue the eye for our bird. White and black stripes are glued together and then twisted.
- Peacock is ready. It remains to put him on a twig. From the brown paper of a 6-by-12 piece we make a twig. We twist the tube and take a good hold on the cracks. So the twig will look more natural.
- Cut and paste as if the bird is sitting on a branch.
- Next, we twist the roses to decorate the twigs.
- From the green paper, we cut out the leaves and paste them to the roses.
- We have a rose on the branches.
- Well, that's it, the work is ready. I hope you helped this master class "how to make a peacock."
