Fairy Shape Prep

Welcome to the continuation of this paper shape sculpt.  The shapes will be used for two (2) distinct projects. Therefore, today's preparation  will utilize only the previously shown cone shape in addition to the following:

Wedge - Torso shape.

Elongated - Thin twists for arms.

Small Ball -  Head for attaching to torso.


Figurine:  All of the shapes mentioned will be connected to create a basic armature for a lady shaped figurine.  To recap, these include a cone, ball, wedge and elongated pieces of paper.

Tip - Moisten paper with liquid starch to shape more easily.

Note:  These shapes will be enhanced later.  Please also note that we will use a smaller head for the purpose of attaching to this torso.

Now, the pieces are ready to start taking shape.  It's time to connect the pieces as follows:

1.  Torso to Skirt - Attach with masking tape.
2.  Arms to Torso - Attach with masking tape, one on each side.
3.  Head to Torso - Cover with paper and twist to create a neck.  Test excess paper.  Attach neck to torso with masking tape.

This form will be the basic figure shape.  Stay tuned for finishing touches, as well as preparation for the second project.
