Alice in Wonderland sculpture.
5:03 PM |
Edit Post
Here is the sculpture and scene I made. I have some more pictures that I will post later on. *
These are some snazzy pictures our teacher took with his camera. I'll get some more detailed shots to put here because I don't have a ground shot, and I made little mushrooms and pine cones (despite there being no pine trees around X-D). The bark also has a texture and I made the tree out of paper and glue and all that messy stuff. Those stringy bits you see hanging out there are fiber optic doodly bits. It was hard to set that up within the leaves and everything. It didn't work the way I wanted it to (you can only really see it well in pitch black). Those tissue paper leaves were all put on individually. It was very painful because I had to cut them all out, sew some of them together, and glue on each and every last leaf. It took a day, and I stopped counting after 741 leaves...so there's probably close to 1000.
These are some shots that I took. I'll get some better shots of the cat because I spent a lot of time on him too. His fur is made of rabbit fur. I had to glue it on with care. If you ever use rabbit fur DO NOT get rid of the skin holding it together. I did and rabbit hair went flying everywhere (not fun to get in your nose). If you take the skin off you have to form the hair into strips (by brushing glue onto the ends), wait for them to dry, and layer them on. The tail was the most difficult because I had to layer white and brownish orange. I used fishing line for the whiskers.
Here are some shots of Alice. I used real human hair for her hair. Where did I get this human hair? my sister fell asleep...X-D Don't worry I asked her. I had to gather it into strips, glue the ends and then layer it on. She looked like a bald monk at one point. X-D
She is made of Sculpey and I used model paint for her face. I made a mold for her legs. They are actually not Sculpey but a sturdy foam clay. I switched to the foam clay because I was having some balance issues (she wouldn't stand on her own). It's odd but it worked better than her sculpey legs...though she still does fall over sometimes. I made a stand just to make sure she wouldn't.
Her dress Is also made of Foam clay, and I layered some tissue paper on top. I painted her dress blue, but rather than creating shadow or gradient by painting, I layered blue tissue paper on top. I liked how there were no brush strokes and it looked a little more like a piece of clothing might.
