DireTrollJake Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Yesterday, I bought: 3 Barbies 3 Justin Beiber Figures 2 Spools of Floral Wire 1 Tub of Crayola Air-Dry Clay ...don't judge me. I had a random idea to sculpt some trees that have human form bodies and make a tree of life themed table. I went to the local Big Lots and bought a 3 pack of cheap and hollow plastic off brand Barbies and then the cheapest package of smaller figures I could find, which so happened to be a 3 pack of Justin Beiber figures. We shall see if I can make this kid useful for something! First, I took apart the figure to have more control, and I wrapped it in floral wire to have it fixed in the pose I wanted and to give the clay something good to adhere to. I will be working on the torso today and after the base is together, I will try my hand at sculpting some bark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMGraham Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Awesome. Simply awesome. Not only could I not imagine a better use for said dolls, but it can only stand to give your terrain a more nightmarish quality. Some in-progress shots, please. We need to see the look on Beiber's face when he's half wrapped in floral wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DireTrollJake Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Thanks guys! I am in the process of moving and this stuff is at the new house so it's my boredom filler while everyone is taking breaks or running errands. More later tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viruk Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Now that's an interestine way to make terrain. Maybe you could leave a single hand or foot protruding from the 'bark' to make it even creepier :Smug_Puppet2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciaran Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I never would have considered this! I would always have made my armatures of other things.... This is flipping brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
