Moveable Figures made from mechanical Parts with Silk Clay

Each of these figures is made from Silk Clay, modelled around a mechanical part, making it possible to get the figure to move. Three of the figures have antennae made from pipe cleaners and two of the figures are decorated with plastic teddy bear eyes.

How to do it
1. Cover the mechanical part with Silk Clay according to your imagination. (Avoid covering the 'pull-up function', wheels etc.).
2. In order to make the figure move, it may be necessary to trim the bottom edges of Silk Clay with a pair of scissors.
3. Push pipe cleaners and/or teddy bear eyes into the modelling clay while it is still wet. As an alternative you may model these details from Silk Clay. Leave to dry.
