Painting The Alpaca - And a BIG Oopsie!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 ноя 2023
- Kneesaa the alpaca is finished! It took a little longer than I thought it would, and I'm not excited about those false eyelashes, but I think she came out OK. I still might take the eyelashes off, though - let me know what you think of them in the comments below.
I recently created a pattern for an alpaca sculpture. If you'd like to use it to make a sculpture of your own, you can find the first video in that series here: www.ultimatepapermache.com/al...
There are several videos on that page, too.
Thanks to Eileen for suggesting that Kneesaa didn't need to be painted - I did add a light glaze over the paper mache clay, but the only real painting was the eyes, nose and mouth.
But those eyes! If you paint directly over foam, and also cover them with nail polish, please tell me what I did wrong! I really can't figure it out, especially since one eye was fine and the other one was destroyed. Why???
And I also think the bright colors in the brush pen set would work just fine over smooth air dry clay - but the grey and black colors smudge, and never seem to fully dry. If you know of a good video that would help me learn how to use them, please leave a comment below. I think it would be fun to do a parrot or other bright bird, but not until I've figured out how to use them. This is the brand I bought (affiliate link): amzn.to/40H2585

Those eyelashes are great. I love watching you work.
That is amazing and she looks so real! Great job!
She’s beautiful and you certainly captured her likeness. 💖👍
Thanks! I'm glad you like her. 😊
You’re most welcome. 😍
Excellent work as always 👍 Amazing!! ☺
Always learn something when I watch your videos!❤ I enjoy how you experiment while working on a project. Great learning experience. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skills. I'm in the process of moving and can hardly wait to get settled so I can do my projects again.😃
Thank you for showing your beautiful talent. I love the animals and your cat!
Thank you for sharing the difficulties too, it’s really heartening for us to see that even an expert sculptor is still learning. I’m wasn’t sure about the lashes until you showed us the picture and they do look like hers.
Yes keep the lashes, this is a perfect sculpture. The oopsies are learning moments for all
Thanks! I'm still not sure about those lashes, though... Maybe if they were trimmed shorter? And yes, I learned a lot with this one. 😊
I love the eyelashes 😋
I like the eyelashes too! ❤
It looks so life like.
Your animals are perfect, nice lady. From 🇵🇹
Hi jonni i think it's so great i love how it turned out but to be honest i vote for no eyelashes😅
Thanks! I think I'm voting that way, myself - although I may leave it for a day or two before I decide. I think buying the cheapest ones I could find wasn't a great idea... 😋
I love it 😍 is it possible to buy the pattern for the alpaca?
