Sculpting Blue Footed Boobies Part 2 - Adding Air Dry Clay
Previous video, building the Blue-Footed Booby armature: https://youtu.be/mQuIxsv0gEA
The blue-footed boobies' feet still aren't blue yet, but we're getting there. In the previous video I created the armature for the lady booby, and showed you how to create a wire sling with the legs and feet so she can stand up without a base. In this video, you can see how the feathers, beak and air dry clay was added to both Mr and Mrs Booby. Next time, they'll both have blue feet.
After they're painted, they'll need a base because Mr Booby is balanced on just one foot. I used a suggestion from our friend Eileen Gallagher to help him stand up - there's an extra wire that will be fitted into a hole in the base. I'll show you how that works when I make the base itself. If you have any ideas for a design for the base or how they should be displayed, let me know in the comments below. 😊
