The vivid and ultra-light clay turtle, especially the pattern on the back, is not painted on, but made individually and pasted piece by piece!
For those who are interested, prepare green, yellow, white and black clay to try making this cute little turtle~
First, roll out the yellow clay into a long strip.
Shape green clay into a square shape.
Put the yellow clay onto the green clay.
Roll up.
Take the yellow clay and flatten it.
Wrap it up.
Take green clay, flatten it and wrap it up.
The final cross-section looks like this.
Carefully cut out small circles. This is the pattern on the turtles back.
Make a turtle shell out of green clay.
Adhere the small round pieces of clay.
The turtle shell is partially completed.
Make the turtles head out of yellow clay.
Paste to the body.
Use clay to make the turtles limbs. Yellow clay is used here, so I'd better change it to green clay.
Adhere the limbs.
Don't forget the little tail.
Make eyes with black and white clay and glue them in place.
Press the little turtle’s limbs again to make claw shapes.
The realistic clay turtle is ready.
