STEPS
TOOLS
If you are interested in making a figure you need a role of aluminum foil.
Rip two pieces of foil, about as wide as it is broad.
Press the foil into the shape of two sticks.
Bend the sticks into the shape of a V, then put them together.
One V will become the legs and the other V is shaped to the form of the body.
But your figure needs arms, rip another piece of foil, not as big as the first two. Press it into the shape of arms and wrap them around the body.
Now you can add some more foil to the head and the rest of the body, as much as you like. And start bending the body into a position that expresses the feeling you want it to express, happiness, anger
Maybe your figure needs an accessory? When you feel finished with the figure, use a glue gun and glue it to a cardboard paper.
Now it's time to start thinking about the shadow of your figure... You can do this two ways.
Put it close to a lamp, the shadow will be small and fit the paper. Draw around the shadow.
You see how I've drawn around the shadow.
The other way you can do this is to put the figure far away from a lamp, the shadow will be long and won't fit the paper. But if you look at the next picture I'll show you what to do :-)
Use a bigger paper, any color you like, and then draw around the shadow.
If you chose the first way you can draw the inside of the shadow now, it doesn't have to be black color ;-)
If you chose the the second way, time to cut the shadow out!
Does your figure look like this? Or maybe....
like this? Ether way, I hope you like it and that it expresses the feeling you want to show! What do you think my figure wants to express?!
