Fairy-tale characters from plasticine

Fairy-tale characters from plasticine can be no less attractive than images from popular foreign cartoons. But parents and educators themselves must know how to blind the character of Russian fairy tales step by step with their own hands to children in order to explain and teach. Modeling of a variety of figures is possible.

Making a hero is not particularly difficult. You just need to strictly follow the recommendations, and everything will definitely work out. Before the step-by-step modeling of a hero from Russian fairy tales, you need to stock up on:

• dark plasticine (it is worth taking a little more, with a notorious margin);
• a pair of beige bars;
• bright plasticine of your choice;
• light gray mass;
• a couple of tubes (these can be both felt-tip pen caps and similar junk things).

A real hero is always portrayed as ready to immediately enter into confrontation with enemies. Therefore, he definitely needs a gray chain mail made of steel. The natural physical strength in this way is demonstrated by sculpting powerful muscles. It is for this reason that it is recommended to take a large amount of plasticine.

Gray plasticine is kneaded in hands. Rolling the ball, smoothly transform it into a bar with an oblique edge. Such a blank will then become the hero's torso. A beige egg-shaped piece set on top will soon evolve into a head and neck.

Next steps:

• putting on a thin yellow beard and sideburns;
• glue the mouth, eyes and nose;
• form hair on the head (they will also be yellowish, but only along the perimeter of the head);
• prepare a helmet and put it on the head;
• use black pieces of plasticine to prepare powerful boots;
• make the tops of the legs from the caps;
• align these caps with the bottom of the body;
• add boots;
• cover the legs with a gray plasticine cake - so that only the boots are visible;
• sculpt powerful shoulders with developed muscles;
• attach the hands and forearms;
• make a bright, expressively colored shield;
• put it in one hand of the hero.

But fairy-tale characters are sometimes more peaceful in nature. Making the same mermaids for children with your own hands in stages does not present any special difficulties. This creature will have a tail like a normal fish. You will also have to make long hair. Whether they are dark or light does not matter. The body of a mermaid is usually beige in color.

You can prepare the tail blank using blue plasticine. Usually the main part of the tail and fins are made separately. You can stick them to each other during the final assembly of the figure.

Then they work like this:

• form a beige cylinder;
• attach the top of the tail to it;
• decorate the figure with beads;
• form a head from a small beige ball;
• create a blank for the hair (it will be a cake of an indefinite shape);
• cut hair with a toothpick or stacks;
• attach a flower hairpin;
• work out all the necessary facial features;
• set the head on the body;
• shape hands by squeezing plasticine with the help of tubes;
• press down the tips of the hands with their fingers: this will make it possible to do with the general stylization and not waste time working on the brushes separately.

When sculpting fairy-tale characters from plasticine, it is not very reasonable to limit yourself to only two characters. It is worth learning how to create other shapes as well. For example, you can make Pinocchio. It is created from multi-colored plasticine.

Stages:

• crushing a yellow piece;
• rolling the ball;
• attachment to the head of a long nose;
• shaping the cheeks, eyes and mouth;
• creation of a red cylinder;
• attaching it to your head (tousled hair should come out from under it);
• torso sculpting;
• making buttons and collars;
• fastening parts with a match;
• preparation of yellow plasticine hands;
• getting blue shorts;
• making a golden key.

You can also make from plasticine:

• Kolobok;
• magic fox;
• magic pony;
• Snow White;
• Vasilisa the Beautiful;
• Cinderella;
• Morozko;
• Tortilla;
• Finista Bright Falcon;
• Babu Yaga;
• Water;
• Snake Gorynych.
