This is such a great masterpiece. You could make an ornament for your ceiling with such work! Beautiful!!
Wow, love the detail and the way the fins convey motion.
I am loving the fish!
It is really lovely!
So happy you loved it! That means a lot to me 🙂
I love all those details on your fish sculpture, Israa. It’s stunning already, even when it isn’t quite finished. Do you have some tips for making an armature with such thin details?
I hope we get to see it when it’s done, too. 🙂
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me.
For the thin details, I usually build the armature using lightweight aluminum wire, and then shape the small details with aluminum foil before adding the paper clay. It keeps everything light but still strong. I also add a thin layer of paper or tape to help the clay grip better.
I’ll definitely share it with the group once it’s fully finished. 🙂
We can’t wait to see it! Thanks for the details on the construction. That’s really helpful. 🙂
