How to Make Ghost Figures
Plasticine ghosts
Total Time: 15 minutes
Step 1: Divide the modeling clay
Take a block of clay and divide it into two pieces: a small piece and a large piece. Mash each piece to create a head and torso.
Step 2: Shape modeling clay
Make pairs of soft pieces that resemble the shape of drops. Pull the narrow part of the drop into a thin tail and fold it. This will give you a head with a long brush and a body with a shapeless tail.
Step 3: Create a Ghost body
Join the two pieces for each figure. Pull the tails and topknot to the sides. The main figure is finished. Create emotions for their faces. For example, a boy might be surprised and a girl might be smiling.
Step 4: Make a face
Glue on the eyes. Place the clay cakes on top of each other and push a strip from top to bottom into the mouth to create a funny look.
Step 5: Add eyelashes to the girl
Create a girl with mesmerizing eyes, make her look out from under her long lashes and smile.
Step 6: Create an accessory
Prepare and assemble small flat pieces for the bow.
Step 7: Decorate the ghosts
Glue the bows on the figures. Add accessories to the girl’s head and the boy’s neck. Now your clay ghosts are elegant and beautiful.
