Model Nessie Make
Hello all! Here you are the steps to making a mini Nessie with Jumping Clay. Remember: before you begin always knead the Clay until soft by stretching and folding.
1. Water of Loch Ness: Let’s make a base for our Nessie. Cover a popsicle stick with blue Clay.
2. Water splash: Make 6 small white balls and place them along the stick, pressing down gently.
3. Body. Roll out 2 sausages to make Nessie’s body (these will be the humps). Put them on the stick.
4. Tail: Roll out a thinner sausage for the tail. Place it on the stick.
5. Neck: Roll out the Clay again and make another sausage. Then add a bit of yellow clay to the neck. Place it on the stick too.
6. Head: Make a ball using green Clay. Then apply a bit of pressure with your palm to make a peanut like shape. Add 2 tiny green balls for the nose. Then make Nessie’s eyes with some white and black Clay. Use a pencil to make her mouth. Finally, make three 3 small yellow balls, press them down and make Nessie’s crest.
