I made this model from semi
porcelain clay for my colour museum project. I chose to do Tinky Winky because
it was a challenge with the curves and definition. Semi porcelain dries quite
quickly so I had to be gentle when it came to carving and shaping the piece. I
had to spray the clay lightly with a water bottle to keep it hydrated and
prevent cracks appearing.
Firstly I worked out the proportions to ensure that the head, body and feet were the correct size. I then moved on to adding more clay to where I had placed the arms so that they would come out from the body, as they should. I added the ears and antennae separately at the end and made sure everything was in line before I smoothed the item over with a soft brush in water.
This was my fist semi porcelain model, I think it came out well because there were no cracks and I had the proportions correct. It has a good resemblance to the Tinky Winky object I had based it on.
