If you have a baby, then he probably has a favorite teddy bear with which he plays and sleeps. Indeed, this is the most popular toy among boys and girls. That is why all children will accept the offer to mold a bear figurine from plasticine with great joy.
Young sculptors will not have to work long and create complex small details, because the bear is quite simple to make. You will be convinced of this if you read the instructions below on how to make a bear from simple plasticine.
1. You can start sculpting with the body or head of the bear. In both cases, you need to roll a brown ball. Only their sizes should be different, but proportional.
2. Place a light cake on the larger ball, but first give it a heart shape by cutting out the figure with a stack.
3. Glue the paws to the bottom. To create the paws, knead the dark brown plasticine in your hands, divide it into two equal pieces, and stretch it into oblong sausages. Attach thin black claws to the tips of the paws. Then attach the lower limbs to the body, pressing firmly on the soft plasticine.
4. Based on the above method, also create the upper legs with claws.
5. Attach the upper legs to the body.
6. On the second ball, prepared for sculpting the head, stick a protruding light tubercle.
7. Turn the tubercle into a nose, attach eyes and round ears.
8. Finally, all that remains is to connect the head with the body to complete the plasticine bear figurine.
Children will love this simple modeling master class. Making a bear from plasticine is not at all difficult, which means this lesson is suitable for very young children.
In this creativity lesson we will create with you the real owner of the taiga - a brown bear. Thus, we will learn to work with soft pliable mass, imagine and experiment, and also have fun. As you know, there are not only brown bears, but also dark ones - grizzlies, and also white ones - northern ones. So later you can transfer the acquired knowledge to further crafts and create a whole collection of bears.
To sculpt a brown bear we will use:
1. Of course, one block of plate is not enough to sculpt a more or less medium-sized craft. You will have to experiment, for example, mixing light white or yellow plasticine into darker brown plasticine. There is also another way to save money - disguising unnecessary waste material or previously damaged plasticine inside the craft.
2. Roll into a large ball.
3. Press down the ball and make it oval. Then give the oval the features of a bear's body. To do this, squeeze the workpiece on one side. Attach the head to the narrower side - a drop protruding forward.
4. Design the bear's face. To do this, highlight the nose and eyes, add round ears.
5. Prepare four soft balls to sculpt the animal's legs.
6. Form tubes from the balls, then attach them to the body and press down. Then deform the soft mass to turn them into paws. Add eyes to the face.
7. All that remains is to attach a very small tail to the back, and the plasticine bear will be ready.
Here we have such a formidable beast. This craft can become a character from your favorite fairy tale “Masha and the Bear” or just a handmade toy.
In this master class with step-by-step photographs, we will tell you... The scheme for sculpting the charming bear cub shown in the photo is quite simple. It’s easy to repeat using our tips. The bear will turn out to be small, cute, with huge eyes and small ears. The basis of the figure can be made of brown plasticine, and if you want to make a polar bear, then replace the mass with a corresponding block.
Children will definitely enjoy such an interesting lesson, because everyone has a plush toy, but you need to make a plasticine copy yourself. Decide on the size, color and appearance of the future craft and get to work.
- a block of brown plasticine;
— plastic stack;
- a little white, blue, pink and black plasticine;
- 1 match.
From 1 brown block of plasticine you will get a small animal figurine the size of a matchbox. If you want to make a larger craft, then take two bars or mask plasticine of a different color inside the main parts. Much in the work also depends on the quality: the softest plasticine does not need to be warmed and kneaded, but you should not hold it in your hands for a long time - it will melt, and it is also difficult to make small parts from soft plasticine.
Roll a ball to sculpt the head. The surface of the part must be smoothed.
Using the rounded side of a spatula, press down the plasticine in the places where the eyes should be - we will make a toy with very large eyes. Draw out the nose (the small bump under the eyes).
Place white cakes into the prepared holes. This way you will define the eyes. The bigger the eyes, the cuter our toy.
Attach the blue ones to the white cakes, lifting them up. Then stick black eyelashes on top. Eyelashes are needed for decoration and greater realism.
Add large black pupils and shimmering highlights - white specks.
Add a miniature black button dot to the nose. Attach round ears to your head. Now the bear looks at everyone with huge eyes.
When the head is ready, proceed to sculpting the body, front and back legs. Prepare portions of plasticine for all parts.
Give the plasticine pieces a proportional shape by first kneading them in your hands. Stretch the body into a droplet, the upper legs into tubes, and bend the hind legs. Moreover, the hind legs must be made larger than the front ones. These massive feet will fit and make the figure even more fragile.
Since we are sculpting a toy, we can make the plasticine bear sit. Attach the large legs to the bottom and sit the craft down (pull the legs forward), glue the upper ones near the shoulders. Subsequently, the animal can be put on its feet by sliding the parts down.
Place pink dot pads on your feet. This will complete the cartoonish look of the craft. Glue black claws to the rounded tips of the paws.
Insert a match into the upper part of the body to secure the head, otherwise it may fall off when the plasticine hardens.
Introducing children to object modeling develops excellent qualities and skills in them. Thanks to this activity, they will increase perseverance, gain patience, improve fine motor skills and develop imagination. Learning to sculpt begins with creating objects and animals that are simple and understandable to the child. For example, you can make a brown bear. Children are accustomed to the fact that a bear is a cute plush toy, and they are wondering how to make a bear from plasticine.
For any work you need your own materials. To make a bear, you need to prepare the following:
Let's take a closer look at how to make a bear from plasticine step by step. To simplify the work, we will draw up instructions for modeling.
Detailed instructions on how to mold a mouse from plasticine step by step:
Stage one. Cut a small piece of mass from a brown block of material and roll it into a ball.
Stage two. After this, start squeezing the top of the ball. Gradually pull it out until the figure comes out. The bear's body is done.
Stage three. Roll another ball of the same size. The head is done.
Stage four. Using brown material, start creating a bear's face. Roll out a small piece of mass. After this, flatten it and give it a round shape. Glue the muzzle blank to the bottom of the head.
Stage five. Also make a couple of ears. Flatten the brown ball and cut it in half.
Before attaching the ears, create main lines on the head to define the center section.
After that, glue them, retreating the same distance from the central part.
Stage six. Connect all created elements.
Stage seven. Make two pairs of bear cub paws. Roll a brown ball into a sausage, divide it in half. Make teardrop-shaped paws from the resulting bars.
Stage eight. Dress the bear in a sweater. To make it you will need blue material. Roll out a piece of plasticine into a strip of uniform thickness. Fold its edge on either side.
Wrap the blank around the body of the bear, changing the bend of the collar in the process. Connect the strip to the back of the figure. Carefully cut it off, and begin to smooth the joint with a knife and fingers.
Stage nine. Create the sleeves separately, using small blue pieces. Treat the paws with them, cut off the excess and rub the seam. Secure a pair of paws to the base. Then attach the lower legs.
Stage ten. Add light brown elements to the pads of the large paws and the inside of the ears.
Stage eleven. Make a nose out of blue material and place it on the muzzle.
Stage twelve. Using small scissors, create texture by lightly cutting the surface of the material. Start the process from the bottom of the figure, slowly working your way up.
Stage thirteen. Use a skewer to create a knitted texture on the garment.
Stage fourteen. Make holes for the eyes and place a couple of black balls inside.
