PLASTICINE RAINBOW CATERPILLAR

Send

In this master class, we will sculpt, it would seem, an ordinary caterpillar made of plasticine balls, which even the smallest child can handle, but due to the smooth transition of colors and a couple of small details, the craft will turn out unusual. We begin to create a bright rainbow caterpillar from plasticine, radiating joy and happiness!
As can be seen in the photo, the body of the caterpillar consists of seven parts, balls. The first part is rolled from yellow plasticine, for the second part we mix yellow and orange, the third is pure orange, the fourth is a mixture of orange and red, the fifth is red, the sixth is red and blue (purple comes out), and finally, the seventh is pure purple . Each time, mixing together two colors of plasticine, knead the pieces carefully and for a long time so that they become homogeneous and monophonic. It looks more interesting when the balls are not of the same size, but each subsequent one is slightly smaller than the previous one.
We connect the parts into a single body and beautifully bend it.

For legs, we roll out a thin sausage of black color and cut into a stack of twelve sticks of the same length.
We attach the legs to the body and round them at the ends. We make it as if the caterpillar is waving.

We are engaged in a muzzle. Eyes are flattened balls of two colors, a smile is cut out by a stack. As the horns in the photo, halves of a toothpick with plasticine balls were used, but you can replace it with thick wire.

That's all, the rainbow plasticine caterpillar is ready! It remains only to find a suitable place for her. You can use a dried leaf, and if the season does not allow, then fashion it from plasticine or cut out of paper.
