How to make a real man from plasticine?

Older children, of course, want everything to look much more natural, so for them we have the idea of ​​sculpting a person with natural features. For this we need sculptural and colored clay, a bowl of hot water, a knife and toothpicks. In the absence of sculptural plasticine, to produce plasticine of corporal color, it is possible to mix conventional clay in the following proportions: white - 6 pieces, red - 2 parts, yellow - 1 part.

1. We sculpt our head. Before working with sculptural plasticine, soften it in water. We roll an oval, cut out a hole for it in the mouth. From the tiny pieces of white, we roll balls - teeth and insert them into the mouth. We roll two sausages from red plasticine - lips and attach them around the mouth.
2. We sculpt our nose, eyes and ears. From a small piece we make a capelike nose, we roll two small white balls for the eyes and attach all this to the head. On the eye proteins impose a blue iris and a black pupil. From the thin stripes we make the eyelids and close them partially the eyes, giving the eyes the correct form. We roll black sausage-eyebrows and attach them over the eyes. The ears are made from flattened balls of small size, and we also attach them to the sides at the level of the nose. The expression of a person's face from plasticine can be different: for a sad person, lower the corners of the mouth and make the "house", the cheerful person can smile happily, the surprised man will have his eyebrows planted high on his forehead.
3. We sculpt our feet and shoes. We roll two sausages of flesh color - legs, then we cover them with colored plasticine, getting pants. Shoes are made from two ovals, flattened on the sole. You can draw stitches and laces with a wand. In the pants and shoes we insert toothpicks.
4. We sculpt the trunk. We sculpt an oval trunk from a solid plasticine and cover it with a colored one. Hands as well as feet and we connect all parts with toothpicks.
5. To make the figure of plasticine look even more natural, blind the man in the hands: on the oval workpiece, cut out the fingers with the knife and connect the brush with the hand with a toothpick.
