Small birds, a caterpillar and much more can be easily modelled with plasticine - great modelling fun for young and old!
You don't need much to knead it loose: Simply add water to the creative kneading concrete and knead it with gloves until the desired consistency is achieved, then knead, shape and model as you wish.
It's that simple:
Mix creative kneading concrete with water (9 parts creative kneading concrete, 1 part water) Add the water slowly one by one while stirring constantly until the kneading mass has the desired consistency.It is best to mix directly by hand (wear gloves) and knead well. Knead the crumbly mass with wet disposable gloves (moisten several times) until the mass is malleable.
Tip: For full moulds you can simply use polystyrene moulds, e.g. Polystyrene ball , as a base and coat them with the kneading concrete. This way your balls will be nice and round and the bird will get its shape.
For the birds:
The first thing to do is to cover the two Polystyrene ball with the finished plasticine.For the bird's head, you put a wooden stick (previously cut to 2cm) halfway into the body ball and then simply put the head ball on top of it. So head and body have more hold.
You can shape the wings and beak individually according to your ideas and attach them to the designated places.
Afterwards you paint the chicken feet with the Marabu do-it spray in Black and let them dry through.
Afterwards you simply stick the chicken feet into the body - and in such a way that he can stand on them.
Ready are the cute birds!
For the caterpillar:
Depending on the size, form five small balls and cut four 2cm long wooden sticks to sizeConnect the individual balls with the wooden sticks (see instructions for the concrete bird).
Make the feelers from two 4cm long wooden sticks and the Wooden balls.
Afterwards simply put only the feelers into the head ball and at the end glue two smaller Wobbly eyes on - and ready is our sweet caterpillar!
