Reindeer Armature level 2
Take you needle felting to the next level
Take home 2 Reindeers
Making wire armatures for your creations is a skill set that will take your needle felting, and art to the next level. In this workshop we will use images of a reindeer in order to understand how to construct a correctly proportioned wire armature. Building a wire frame gives strength to your work and makes it bendable to pose. Once the armature is made we will look at how to start adding pipe cleaners, core wool, and topcoat to bring the reindeer to life.
What you will learn
- 3D Wire armature so that your work can be positioned with confidence and will be sturdy and strong
- Basic body shaping, proportions and how to get a realistic shape to the reindeer. Knowledge of the right wools to use for this project and the right needles
