WALLACE'S NEW INVENTION?

wow this is great cavor

Wow!You are a genius

this is absolutley amazing cavor i wish i could make models like that.

Wow! That's amazing. How did you make them, Cavor?

Thanks for the great feed back!

If you have patience there is no end to what you can achieve.
I believe I have a fair bit of patience!

I'm hoping to post a bit of a step-by-step guide on the 'Pictures of models you have made' thread over the Christmas holiday.

WOW really great models please gine us tips and what clay do you use

I use newplast plastecine.

First off I got hold of a picture of Wallace and scaled it up to the size I wanted (10"), then made templates from card for hands & face from this photo.
Next I got pictures of as many angles of Wallace I could find.
If you break things down in stages it becomes easy and workable.

Hey cavor
luvin ur it's rly gr8. can u draw as well??? pls giv me some tips

I posted a small character picture in the forum, i'm not great at drawing but I get by. http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/forum/read/497#message_26073

If you are copying something or someone spend 2 thirds or more of your time studying what you are drawing.

If say you are drawing a character out of your head don’t get to passionate about your first drawing, get a few sketchy lines down on paper eg: a fat stomach, funny hat, big nose etc, I usually do 2 or 3 drawings building from ideas from the first couple of drawings.

great model of Wallace!

Thanks again to all who have commented.
I have put the makings of my model (Wallace) up on 'Pictures of models you have made' thread as promised.

cavor

this has got to be a winner, well done

very good, will definatley win decembers competition

oh yeah Cavor What colour newplast is wallace head

I had to mix the light pink I had with a little tan/orange colour plus I think I added a bit more white.
I remember conty say that he orders 2 or 3 flesh or skin colour bars each time he gets a batch of plasticene.
Hope this helps.

I don't think it is to great, but keep on trying!

Thanks cappie I will take your advise

A+ A+ A+ A+++++++++++++++++ for you and the clay

cappie, no offense but could you do better?

666joshy666 I will have to do better to get anyware in the contest!!

Where did this picture come from?

The Picture was one from a series of photos I took in Dec 07 I wasn't really happy with the lighting but this was the best of the bunch!

no you won't have to do any better to win the contest!!!!!

sorry for the late reply

Thanks 666joshy666 its nice of you to say what you said but I didn't win so feel I will have to do something incredible!! to do so
I had read a thread about it doesn't matter what age you are so thought it would be ok to have a go!!but in my heart of hearts I feel it is still mainly aimed at the younger sector
I hadn't done any modelling for possible 18 to 2 years so felt it wasn't a bad job!!

Sorry that should have read 18 months to 2 years, could do with an edit on this section as well!!!

fantastic how was the vest made?

His tank top or vest was made from over bake clay, I think I used sculpey
