How to sculpt marine animals from plasticine. Synopsis of GCD on modeling in the senior speech therapy group "Sea inhabitants

Good day everyone!

Didn't you want to have your own little ocean as a child? Of course, it is interesting to look at a live aquarium, but you can’t play with it, you can’t touch the fish. For a month and a half, Yasnochka has been playing with this miracle, but I still can’t bring myself to reveal it to the world. While I photographed everything, while I prepared ...



So about everything in order.

Initially, there was an idea to make such an ocean so that my daughter could play with it for a long time, and not just 30 minutes, as is the case with a jelly ocean or just with blue water in a basin. The thing is that Jasna loves the cartoon "Finding Nemo", we have almost all of his characters at home. And we just fell in love with Julia Donaldson's book "Tulka - a small fish and a big inventor." What illustrations!



I really wanted our ocean to have many interesting little things, so that every time Jasna would find something new. I also wanted the bottom to look like a real coral reef, full of different colors and living creatures. So, armed with a rough sketch and a bunch of plasticine, Yasnaya and I began to create.

At first I decided to make all the details with which I would then decorate the bottom.

Several colorful anemones on shells were given to us by my mother, I showed them in the previous post, remember? The rest had to be searched for in the bottom of the barrel, and something to be done by myself from baked plastic.

Bottom decorations:


Corals:

I used inexpensive baked plasticine "Flower":


Plastic twigs from cheap kits I just cut into pieces.


Even in the bins, I found a loofah (vegetable washcloth) and made several corals from it - gorgonians.


But these corals, similar to horns, I made from wire and hot glue according to the master class from here, replacing the paper mass with hot glue. Then I just painted them with acrylic paint.


But my special pride is the watch. I tried to make them as similar as possible to the clock in the book.


For scale:


In the book:


The chest, like the clock, blinded in one breath, I even forgot to photograph the process. But if you are very interested, write in the comments, I will try to make a separate master class on the chest and clock.


For scale:


Of course, I had to mold the main character of the book - a little Tulka and one of the missing characters - a flounder. The rest of the heroes were found in various inexpensive marine sets.

The last, already as entertainment, were the kids living in a barrel and a jug and a fragment of a wooden ship.




Jasnochka still couldn't wait for the moment when we would start making the ocean and start without me.

Now we will lay out the bottom. I used black (or olive) sculptural clay, and to save money and fill the space, I decided to lay chestnuts inside. (Round containers from kinder surprises or something else are quite suitable for this, as long as it is light and hard) I fastened them together with hot glue. Again, to save plasticine. To make it interesting for Jasna to play, I made a lot of fish houses on each side.


When the plasticine bottom was ready, the most pleasant part began. Here, everything that was found in the apartment went into action. Decorative buttons, accessories from homemade jewelry, small toys, shells, sea pebbles. I even stuck on bits of moss that Yasna and I had collected in the park.

The bottom turned out well, very colorful and saturated, as intended. Therefore, a lot of photos :)


And at school, Mr. Skat is doing roll call...




Even a fishing net was found :) There she is, lurking at the very wall behind the algae. Yasna now throws all the fish at her one by one and shouts: "Oh, save me, help me, I'm caught in the net!" One of the other fish is sure to rush to the rescue and rescue the captive from trouble.










For the photo, I put all the available details at once. It turned out probably too intense, but Yasnochka was not at a loss. She has long been accustomed to such things and immediately began to put things in order there and settle the fish in houses and sea anemones. As for Tyulka, she is already quoting almost the entire book by heart during the game. It is so touching to watch that my heart skips a beat with delight! :)))


To disassemble such creations probably the hand will not rise. Moreover, each time you can come up with different versions of the game. You can even pour water into it! Sculptural plasticine is good because it does not deteriorate from water, unlike modern soft plasticine for kids. By the way, here it is:


Before work, it must be well warmed up in hot water or on a battery. But when it cools down, even sticking a toothpick into it will not be easy.

Happy crafting to you and your lovely kids!

P.S. When copying material, please make a link to my blog.

Another craft for maritime theme we decided to devote to the creation of a seahorse from plasticine. If you look closely at the photographs of these aquatic inhabitants, you can really see some resemblance to horses, in particular, this is the head and neck. But saddling a seahorse, of course, will not work. Although children can see such a phenomenon in cartoons or fairy tales. Our skate can be colorful, because it is such a figurine of a marine life that will cheer you up.

1. Decide on the color of the future craft and select the desired colors from the box.

2. Roll up an oblong part from pink plasticine. This is a blank for the future seahorse.

3. Make the upper part of the blank flatter, and pull the lower part down, gradually narrowing. Should be a ponytail.

4. Set the outlines of the marine life. To do this, bend the tail part slightly back, and then twist the tip into a ring.

5. Spend some more pink plasticine on the creation of the head. Remember that its outlines should resemble the muzzle of a horse, so pull the bow forward in a characteristic way, as shown in the photo.

6. Let the creature see everything around, for this you need small eyes made of white and blue grains. Also make a decoration of blue dots along the sides from the head to the tail.

7. From the purple mass, make small scales and place them in a row along the back.

8. And the last distinguishing feature of the seahorse is its small wings-fins. They can be made brighter. The first step is the formation of small triangular-shaped cakes.

9. Then define the shape of the fins and the striped relief with a plastic spatula.

10. Attach flying fins to the seahorse's back so it can surf the water.

The final look of the craft.

Here is such an easy-to-perform colorful craft turned out. Taking into account this master class, engage the whole family in interesting creativity and create each your own unique plasticine toy.

  • plasticine that changes color when exposed to sun rays;
  • modeling material is similar to a rubber jumper;
  • fluorescent plastic;
  • plasticine as a magnet.

For sculpting animals, plasticine is better to choose two types: soft (it is more convenient to use it in drawing) and hard (hard figures will be obtained from it).

When choosing plasticine, it is necessary to take into account some criteria:

  • plasticine should not be brittle and stick to the skin;
  • it is necessary that it be plastic and pliable to soften with children's fingers;
  • oily colored spots do not remain after using plasticine good quality;
  • it is necessary to choose plant-based products (traditionally, the composition includes clay powder with the addition of wax, petroleum jelly, and fatty components);
