What is necessary?
The most important thing is to decide what exactly is to be sculpted.... It's one thing if a real chicken is taken as the basis. And it is completely different if it is decided to start from her cartoon image. In both cases, however, it is difficult to do without photography.
Plasticine for a simple bird should be white, black, red and orange; besides it, only the stack is additionally needed.
Simple option
Making chicken from plasticine step by step.
- We start by rolling the white ball... The blank for the body of the animal must be pear-shaped.
- A couple of small white or gray balls will make wings... The balls are given the shape of a drop and be sure to make notches. Further, it remains only to fix the wings along the edges of the case. Blind the wings and the body together as carefully and accurately as possible.
- Feathers for the tail should be collected in a graceful bun.
- Additionally you will need beak and scallop... The way they are shown in the photo will definitely charm any children. Moreover, they can do it with their own hands.
- And this is what this assembled figure looks like. with "almost natural" legs.
Modeling with natural materials
Chicken can also be made of plasticine in conjunction with cones. In this case, it will have a bright yellow color. For a kindergarten, such a coloring of the craft is quite reasonable.
- The first step is rolling the ball... It will be an excellent blank for the head of a poultry.
- The role of the bump - to prop the head of the animal, in fact, protruding from its body.
- Next, you have to add a small piece of orange plasticine. This is how it all looks in stages, when the beak is attached to the upper part of the chicken worn on the bump. But she must also have a comb. Reddish pieces connected at one edge crown the crown of the head.
- Wings cook again from yellow plasticine. They should be oriented downward. With the help of a stack, a certain number of strokes are made at the ends of the wings.
- Collect 3 teardrop yellow headers to get a tail... On it, you need to form a notch that imitates plumage.
- Legs are prepared from orange pulp: stretch the sausages, bend them at a certain, anatomically convincing angle, attach this assembly to the body.
But you can also mold a chicken with seeds. A stylized black bird figurine is usually taken as a basis.
The seeds will create the tail and wings. The holding force of the clay itself is quite enough to stabilize this structure. The sharp edges of the pumpkin seeds are attached on the sides; they must be set in several levels.
However, the bird is nothing until its detailed plumage has been taken care of. Sunflower seeds are already being used for it. They should be compiled as tightly as possible, trying to exclude the appearance of gaps. They move when working from head to tail, and not vice versa. And this is how the blanks look like:
-
beards;
-
scallop;
-
beak.
