Of course the study of the anatomy is crucial. So I scribbled the skeleton and the outer shape of a cat:
After that I took some wire to rebuild the skeleton:
And put some clay around the parts which are supposed to remain stiff and marked the joints:
Then it was ready to get a coat of plasticine:
Actually I was to excited to form the skull so I left it to the end. This wasn’t such a smart idea because I messed up the plasticine…
This is the scribble how the cat’s face should look like in the end:
I hope I will have soon the pace and time to sit down and model the rest of it. So stay tuned…
After the the Offf conference I am truly inspired to do some stop motion animations. See what my results are until now:
Paper pyramide test – stop motion from Miss makimon on Vimeo.
Cat – stopmotion test from Miss makimon on Vimeo.
For sure it is a lot of fun to create them.
