Dragonfly modeling from clay can be a very exciting thing. You need to know not only how to do it out of natural materials, but also as a stage by stage to dazzle the bulk dragonfly.
A separate important topic - modeling insect cardboard steps.
How to make a simple cardboard?
Whizzing over their heads, "the helicopter" immediately draw attention to themselves in the warm weather. The beauty of this insect causes its popularity. For children, even urban, dragonflies know well. Because they reproduce by means of modeling can be quite fast. Blue material will need to create:
hull;
tail;
head.
Orange clay useful for modeling wings. Everything is done step by step as follows:
3 is formed about the ball of similar size (their cut and kneaded with hands);
one small ball head fashioned;
stretch rest a couple of balls, roll them with your fingers;
give the body an oval configuration, but it still needs to be wider than the tail;
lengthen and thin tail section;
connecting all three parts made one after the other;
modify the tail with the help of the stack;
draw its transverse edge of the ring type;
add wings and eyes of the big polubusinok green;
shift the figure on a piece of cardboard (if it has not been planted at once).
How to sculpt the volume dragonfly?
Making the compositions necessary volume logically combined with the use of bright and catchy material. In this case, the body and tail make a relatively dark color. Wings molded from clay lighter shades. Easily it is possible to form an elegant marble effect. Work in stages so you need to:
pull the ball to the state of "sausages";
- sharpen it with the same face;
- notched stack to obtain the effect of the bifurcation;
- applied incisions in the longitudinal plane;
- cut into 4 separate piece moiety and in their stretched flat wings;
- attach them to the body, seeking sensation "flutter";
notch wings straight regular notch;
attached head;
add to her eyes;
attach a rope, if they want to Plasticine dragonfly flitted like its prototype.
Crafts with natural materials
This option is actually a little different from the previous. It's hard to tell which color is useful when modeling a dragonfly. Each of them is unique, and different kinds of . Real insect wings are transparent, and it is the easiest way to identify white. Figures with leaves on the background of dragonflies themselves look only natural and believable.
Start work, rolling plasticine tiles in oval. The other part is drawn like the sausage. These will be the case and tail, respectively. As in the previous case, you need to take the stack and cutting them the edge of the tail. Longitudinal notches will also be a mandatory feature at all of its length.
Next you need:
- Drain the head ball to the body;
- Stop big spherical eyes on the head;
- to form 4 oblong wings from white or beige plasticine;
- Attach these wings to the body of the insect;
- Supply pairs of wings with a webbed ornament (but it is better to do it before mounting to the designated place);
- As needed to strengthen the wings with matches or wire;
- Adjust the composition with leaves and twigs that are attached to the same cardboard.
But you can do and otherwise - to make a figure of dragonflies in which plasticine will play only auxiliary role.
It is pushing belly and head out of it. Seeds of any plants go for the manufacture of an eye. For the manufacture of tail used twig. In order to get wings, maple winrts are used, and the paws and mustaches are formed from thin stainless or copper wire.
