After a lot of brainstorming, I chose to sculpt a set of three dinosaurs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I started by building the armature, which was a wire frame to get the overall shape of the dinosaurs.

I used techniques like scrunching up the foil to get volume and wrapping sheets of foil around to hold everything together. Creating a foil base ensures the sculpture won&#8217;t be as heavy as it would be if it was made out of solid clay.
