Kiwi
We made a Plastimake Kiwi. By the way, we're now shipping Plastimake to New Zealand!
This model is 10cm tall and required 170g of Plastimake Sculpting Formula. Here's how we made it:
- Mix up some brown Plastimake by blending red, yellow, blue and black colouring pellets into 150g of Plastimake.
- Roll your brown Plastimake into a ball, then sculpt it into the body of the kiwi. Attach the legs on each side of the body.
- Allow the body to cool, then use a heat gun to re-heat the surface. Create a feathery effect by scratching a razor blade along the warm surface of the body.
- Make a small ball of white Plastimake and stretch it into a beak. Use a heat gun to r-heat the head of the bird and press the beak into place.
- Mix up some black Plastimake and sculpt two feet.
- Then make two thin black legs and use them to attach the feet to the upper legs. This part is a little tricky, you'll need to get the balance right so that your model doesn't fall over.
- Finally, add some cute black eyes and you're done!
