Easter Alien Eggstravaganza
They mostly come at night. Mostly
So work are having an Easter egg decorating competition and it gave me some inspiration for new wee project! Initially I thought I’d do some sort of fantasy characters but then realised my freehand sucks! Looking on the interwebs for inspiration I then though maybe some sort of dragon eggs – should be simple enough to do. But then it hit – what could be worse than a global pandemic – that’s right an Alien infestation!
All very innocent looking!I decided to wrap the eggs in DAS clay to give them some texture and then add some green stuff for the details
DAS ist gut
Bit of green stuffI thought this looked *all right* but could do better – also wanted one where the egg was starting to open. I wasn’t happy with the way the green stuff worked out so for the next attempts I would use all clay.
Don't get too closeAt this stage I’m starting to get the feel for working the clay and actually really enjoying it – so I boiled up another 3 eggs and set to work.
Very happy with the results. Now to let them dry overnight and get ready for painting!
Probably the most original Easter egg take I have ever seen!
Haha! I’m sure this has been done loads of times! A friend of mine suggested doing Cocoon! That’s maybe an idea for next year! ?
Do you mean the movie?, because that also would be cool.
Yeah that would be the idea ?
