How to make a spiderman from plasticine?

Spider-Man is a popular comic, film and cartoon hero, especially with boys.... In this article, we will tell you in detail how you can mold a toy in the form of a Spider-Man from plasticine with your child.

To make a figurine of a simple Spider-Man with your own hands, you will need plasticine bars of white, red, black and blue colors... Red plasticine will be needed the most, so prepare two blocks of this color in advance. On the other hand, very little material is required in black and white. You will also need stack... It is with its help that you can cut and draw individual details on the toy to make it look more realistic.

In addition, to work, you will need special board, on which you can sculpt a toy. If you don't have one, you can take an ordinary oilcloth, a piece of plastic, plywood, or a sheet of cardboard.

If you have prepared all the necessary materials, then you can start sculpting a plasticine figure. This must be done step by step. First of all, you need to roll a small ball out of a red plasticine piece and use your fingers to give it a slightly elongated streamlined shape - this will be the head of Spider-Man. As a result, you should get an oval.

After that, you can start sculpting the eyes from white plasticine. In order to position them correctly on the face of the figure, we recommend making preliminary markings using a stack. After that, thin sausages must be rolled out of black plasticine, which should serve as a frame for the eyes.

Now you can move on to sculpting the torso. To do this, you need to take another piece of medium-sized red plasticine and roll a trapezoidal figure out of it, while highlighting the shoulder, waist and body reliefs with your fingers.

Next, from two identical pieces of plasticine, you need to roll out sausages of medium width. These will be the arms of the figure, which must be attached to the body, before making the palms with the help of a stack.

After that, you will need to blind the stripes from the blue mass. They need to be placed on the sides of the figure's body. The waist zone and part of the legs to the feet are molded from the same blue plasticine - they are made separately from red pieces. Next, from red plasticine, it is necessary to blind the neck and fasten the character's head and body together.

All that remains is to mold a small spider from black plasticine mass. It should be placed on the chest of the figure. After that, using your fingers, you need to smooth out all the irregularities of the craft, if any. The toy is ready!

Making a Spider-Man in an iron suit is a more difficult and painstaking task. It requires great care and perseverance, since in the process of working to create a beautiful toy, you will have to pay a lot of attention to small details.... To sculpt such a toy, you will need black, red, white and yellow plasticine, as well as toothpicks and all the other accessories that were needed to make Spider-Man in an ordinary suit.

The molding of the figurine will again take place in stages. First of all, you need to form a head in the form of an oval from a piece of red plasticine. After that, it is necessary to make markings for the eyes on it, outlining the contour, and pick out the excess plasticine with the help of a stack, thus forming the eye sockets. In the resulting grooves, you will need to insert pieces of white plasticine. After that, you need to roll up thin strips of black plasticine, which are needed to frame the eyes of the figure.

Further, a body is formed from a red piece of plasticine, which should look like a trapezoid in its shape. Use your fingers to form the shoulder area. Along with this, it is desirable to make the neck of the figurine.

Next, a small spider is made from black plasticine for the Spider-Man costume. To do this, a small piece of plasticine is rolled out, flattened and, with the help of a stack, give it the required shape. The resulting part is attached in the central part of the character's chest, after which thin stripes are formed from pieces of black plasticine - spider legs. They are also attached to the hero's body.

After that, you need to make the back of the suit. To do this, a black plasticine layer is rolled out of such a size that it could wrap the body with it. It is attached to the hero's torso, after which you can start designing his armor. This must be done with the help of a stack, carefully getting rid of excess plasticine. Parts for decorating armor are molded from yellow plasticine.

Further, the hero's hands are molded from equal-sized pieces of red plasticine mass, while the hands and palms are also formed with the help of a stack. The hands are attached to the body of the toy, after which they must be decorated with yellow and black plasticine.

After that, the waist zone and calves of the legs are molded from black plasticine. The hero's legs are separately formed from red plasticine, which are attached to the calf with toothpicks for greater reliability. The head is also fastened to the body with a toothpick. The hardest part is over. Next, using a stack and a toothpick, you need to draw small details to make the toy more realistic and beautiful. All irregularities, if any, must be gently smoothed out with your fingers.

The figurine is almost ready.It remains only to finish the last details of the hero's costume: 4 tentacles. They are made from yellow plasticine. Roll out 4 thin sausages, give them the desired bend and fasten on the hero's back. The toy is ready!

Before you start making toys from plasticine, the working material must be thoroughly warmed up in order to facilitate the sculpting process. To do this, you can crush the plasticine in your palms for a while, put it on a warm battery, or hold it under warm water for a while.

Before starting work, you should also make sure that the material used is fresh, especially if you are making a toy with a small child.

It is worth considering the fact that immediately after sculpting, the figure cannot be used for games, otherwise there is a great risk of breaking it. To prevent this from happening, the finished toy should be placed in the refrigerator or on the balcony when it comes to the cold season. After a while, the toy should harden and get stronger, after which it can be used for games. If you want to make your figure even stronger and more reliable, then for this you can use matches or toothpicks, with which you need to fasten all the details.

And to make the figurine more interesting for the child, it can be made on a special frame, which can be made from thin wire. In this case, the toy will be more mobile, it will be able to twist its head and move its arms and legs, which will make the game even more fun.
