School Project i need to make a model of a german cockroach?
I need to do this school project in science and i have to make a model of a german cockroach. Any ideas how to make it. It can be made out of anything. Just cant carve wood or anything llike that something easy.
You could make it out of Craft Porcelain--it's an air dry clay, made by AMCO. You can achieve great details with the stuff since it was made for making figurines and flowers. Once it's dry you can paint it. According to the package, you're supposed to use acrylic paints, but I've found that watercolor works better (especially the kind that comes in a tube, such as Reeves (just thin it out first)), since you can create a thin wash effect. I've also found that you can add a little bit of the watercolor paint directly to the clay before you sculpt the object. Just be careful on how much you add, if you add too much, it makes the clay really sticky and you have to set it aside for a while to dry a bit. Also after it's dry, if you use watercolor on it, you have to be careful because the clay isn't waterproof and it'll get soft again. When it's dry, you can also draw on the stuff using watercolor pencils--just dip the tip of the pencil in some water and draw away or just use it dry.
