Ultimate Paper Mache | Sculpt a Blue Footed Booby Balancing On Two Feet @UltimatePaperMache | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
I got started on my Blue-Footed Booby sculpture this week. She's now got her body, wings and feet, but the feathers and air dry clay will be in the next video. You can now see the next video here: youtu.be/lBKClTD2Ns0
I started this project to show you how to balance any bird sculpture on just two feet. This is a big challenge for a lot of sculptors, but I think my solution will work for almost any type of bird. I've used the same system with a baby chick and with a life-sized dodo, and it worked for both of them.,
Here are the links I mentioned in the video. If I forgot one, please let me know. 😊
