Making Animal Sculptures: How To Create Life-Like Animal Sculptures

Besides sculpting with strips, there is another way to use paper and paste to create sculpted forms. Instead of applying individual layers of paper, you can blend the paper into the paste beforehand creating a sort of clay that can be used to sculpt objects or smooth the surface of other paper mache pieces. This clay is actually where the original “Papiér-mâché” or “chewed paper” gets its name.

This book contains step-by-step instructions and over 250 photos to guide you through the enjoyable process of making animal sculptures with the author's paper mache clay recipe.
