I almost always start a large mammal with two balloons and a big cereal box. I like to put 3 layers on each balloon and let them dry. I open the cereal box at both ends and shape into a cylinder. Then I tape the dry balloons, one at each end of the box. I cut a profile of the head and legs from corrugated board, tape them on, fill them out with newspaper, and then strip mache.
I can’t pass him without patting him on the head!
do you have a pattern for this?
You’ve captured the body shape just right. I like the simplicity of color for the finish. Beautiful work!
I like your way of creating bulk for large mammals. The Polar bear is great!
Hij is prachtig geworden. Mooi met de uitleg, hoe hij gemaakt is..
Nice pose – and I agree; he would need a pat on the head!
The bit of detail on his lifted paw is a delight.
