Had a fab weekend with a friend a couple of weeks ago and we started to make Angels for Christmas.
The tall angels are made out of card cones covered in papier mache with scrumpled up paper heads. The flat one is wire again covered in papier mache.
Our 'works in progress'!
Once the bodies were complete various pieces of paper, scrim and caulk were applied to create texture. Once dry the whole piece was painted and dry brushed with numerous layers of paints.
The hair was made with string that had been painted before being glued on and the wings are made from shaped wire that has been covered in scrim. These were then painted before being attached.
Last thing to attach was of course their halos'.
One angel is pale purple, one is gold and the other bronze. The purple one is for my sister!
