Ever wanted your own priceless figurines? Here's your big chance! You will need:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Start by scrunching up newspaper into a body shape. Use plenty of stciky tape to hold it in shape |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Twist some strips of newspaper into arms and legs. Again, use sticky tape to hold them in shape. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bend the bottom of the legs to make feet. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then scrunch up a thin ball of newspaper to make a head. Use more sticky tape to hold it in place. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now that you have all the body parts made, tape them all together. Attach one at a time. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Just use plenty of tape and take your time - don't rush! |
|
|
|
|
|
|
To make your figure stand up, you need to make a base. Just cut a piece of cardboard box card to the right shape, and tape a scrunched up pad of newspaper onto it. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now position your figure on the base. It doesn't have to be in a standing position it can be in any position you like. This one's walking, for example. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
To create the effect of a priceless figurine, cover your creation in aluminium foil. You'll need to use some double sided sticky tape or sticky tape loops for this. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Put your sticky tape loops onto the back of your figurine's back, head, chest and so on, then simply cover with pieces of aluminium foil. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Remember, you can do any shape, size or pose of figure that you like.
Try it yourself! |
