0.000 HBDOPTIMUS PRIME ๐ค Clay Art Contest #4 Entry - Timelapse and process photos ๐ฝ๏ธ
<center> ***AUTOBOTS*** ๐ค This entry is specially made for the clay at contest held by @josejirafa! *I used a screwdriver because I forgot to buy carving tools and I bought some Play-doh.* I have always loved sculpting but I haven't sculpted in a long long time but it's great to start again. The challenge this time is to mold our ***Favorite cartoon character*** Now I've watched transformers cartoons and movies and I love robots, machines and even considered taking up a course for college related to machines before in highschool. ๐***Optimus Prime***๐ I used the movie robot as reference since my mom suggested so ๐ โ๏ธ They laughed and said "let's see if she can do it" Well, here it is! *They said it looked great. Phew!*  <sub>Optimus Prime Clay Model by @jacinta.sevilla</center> > In the process of making this I kept telling myself "this is so hard" cause the clay is so soft? Haha I read about the contest yesterday and me and my brother @vocafrost immediately wanted to join! Im glad cause my brother is making so much effort to try art because of steemit ๐๐๐ ***merci steemit*** โ๏ธ  <sub>@jacinta.sevilla with @vocafrost at SM CITY DAVAO.</center> > Hi everyone ๐ท Okay so we got our clay now! Im so excited. However it's so hard to decide which anime/cartoon or comic character to draw. Good thing I was able to brave the challenges of sculpting machines haha. </center> # TIMELAPSE VIDEO ๐ฝ๏ธ Complete Process <center>I am happy I could document the whole thing! Please do watch! It's all in here! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=s72-pTLJNRI <sub>Music credits to Linkin Park: *what I've done* and *New Divide*</sub> > Please feel free to comment and critique! ๐จTitle: Optimus Prime ๐จMedium: Modeling Clay ๐จMaterials: Clay, screw driver, clean sheet of paper, reference โณDuration: 2-3 hours Incase any of you are wondering, I could not sculpt the whole body for a number of reasons โThe clay is too soft โToo little clay โThere is no support/ wire skeleton on a base for a proper standing sculpture to be made โ Limited colors  ***Although*** Creating a half bust of Optimus: โ๏ธ Saves time โ๏ธ Helps more focus โ๏ธ Easier โ๏ธ Portable โ๏ธ Saves on clay  You can mix some colors to make a few gradations so you'll have more options on different shades if you plan on making one. </center> # SOME PROCESS PHOTOS ๐ธ <center> These are the very few I took and I'll give a brief explanation since ***It's all in the video***!  ๐จ***What did I do here***? I initially made an egg shape or oval of the face then I added pieces of clay and layering them. ***We add, not subtract*** Leonardo da Vinci used a big block of marble and started and chiseled it into the Pieta. *Some sculptures work that way* Here I add layers to make a whole, we mold this way. Just a little subtraction later on for reshaping and details.  <sub> add add add more</sub>  ๐จ ***Add details and more parts*** This clay is super easy to mold and you just rub it and the surface smoothens and its easy to stick and join parts together.  >I used yellow clay instead of white to emphasize light and also to add color variation.  ๐จ***Keep going*** > Do your best Jacinta! You can opt to buy a clay which is harder so its more moldable into angular shapes and doesn't flatten easily. Some layers join when I need them to be defined and separate. โ๏ธ***Be very careful***โ๏ธ  Thankfully the canons were sturdy, almost killed me. They fell after a few hours but it's okay. ๐ธ***Model box***๐ธ I put it inside a model box. This box by the way was given to me by my ever so thoughtful bestie @fukumineko ๐ท Thanks! It helps a lot! ***The following are the rest of the photos I took of my clay model***  > The lights are so nice ๐ โ๏ธ  <sub>Opti's bust</sub> > The light reveals true color, shape and sloppy works! I wish I could do more details or maybe if I MADE A BIGGER ONE... ๐ค๐ญ I'd make it more precise and not look like a birthday cake icing decor. Lol  ***That's done! ๐๐*** </center> # I NOMINATE โ๏ธ๐จ๐ญ <center> โ๏ธ@noellesevilla โ๏ธ@shanehobie โ๏ธ@fukumineko โ๏ธ@korinkrafting โ๏ธ@Ishanvirtue โ๏ธ@whitehatartist โ๏ธ@abs-pointilism โ๏ธ@hiddenblade To all join next round!
