Step 1
Colora 40g di pasta model di colore marrone

Step 2
Crea una forma a cono

Step 3
Appiattisci e allarga la base, toglie eventuali pieghe usando la tua mano e crea una piccola pendenza nel tronco

Step 4
Usa il veiner tool per creare l’effetto corteccia nel tronco.

Step 5
Colora 60g di pasta model di colore grigio. Ti servirà anche un po’ di colore grigio in gel nero. Ricordati che ne puoi sempre aggiungere!

Step 6
Crea una forma ovoidale con 25g di pasta model grigia.

Step 7
Ponila sulla base, appiattisci leggermente la base e inarcala in modo da creare il corpo del koala.

Step 8
Prendi una piccola pallina di pasta model bianca, appiattiscila e dalle forma con la mano in modo da creare un triangolo.

Step 9
Mettila nel corpo del koala come da foto (quando si attaccano piccoli pezzi di pasta model Saracino non serve usare alcuna colla)

Step 10
Usa un po’ di cake gel come colla, oppure acqua di bollitura lasciata raffreddare e posiziona il koala sulla base del tronco.

Step 11
Per fare le gambe, arrotola 4g di pasta model grigia e crea due salsiccette (2g ciascuna)

Step 12
Dai loro la forma di ‘S’

Step 13
Appiattisci la parte finale di ciascuna gamba con il dresden tool o con il tuo dito in modo da creare le zampe.

Step 14
Usa il veiner tool per creare gli artigli.

Step 15
Ammorbidisci i lati con il dito o con il dresden tool

Step 16
Add the legs to the koala’s body, placing some glue on both the trunk and the koala

Step 17
To make the arms again roll 2 sausages using 4g of grey modelling paste (2g each).

Step 18
Use your little finger to gently roll and define a paw at the end of each arm

Step 19
Flatten each paw

Step 20
Slightly bend each arm and glue into position so the koala can hug the tree!

Step 21
Roll 25g of grey modelling paste into a ball and slightly square off the top and sides to create the head shape

Step 22
Use the large ball tool to indent eyes midway up the face

Step 23
Mark a line for the mouth with the veiner tool

Step 24
Use the dresden tool to open up the mouth

Step 25
Run the medium ball tool just below the bottom of the mouth opening to create the bottom lip

Step 26
Use the small ball tool to mark the outer edges of the mouth

Step 27
Create deeper eye sockets using the medium ball tool

Step 28
Roll 3 balls of black modelling paste as shown. Put the larger to one side for the nose. The smaller two are the for the eyes. These are too small to weigh but should be about the size of petit pois!

Step 29
Drop the eyes into the sockets. If they’re too large or small simply remove and try again

Step 30
Use the very small ball tool to make tiny holes in the top right of each eye for highlights

Step 31
Roll tiny white balls and drop these into those holes, very gently smooth into position.

Step 32
Now roll the reserved black paste into an ovoid for the nose and glue into position

Step 33
For the ears use the remaining 2g of grey modelling paste to make two balls (1g each)

Step 34
Indent these with the large ball tool and roll two small balls of light grey paste, place into the ears

Step 35
Smooth and flatten them with your finger and then indent with the large ball tool

Step 36
Use the veiner tool to mark the sides of each ear as shown

Step 37
Trim each ear with the craft knife to create a flat edge and glue into position on the koala

Step 38
Roll two tiny sausages of grey, from the ear cut off, and place into position as eyebrows

Step 39
Use a soft brush to add a little pink dust to the koala’s cheeks and mouth

Step 40
Push a cocktail stick into the koala’s body (if for a customer be sure to tell them it’s there)

Step 41
Position the head onto the stick – looking cute isn’t he?!

Step 42
To make the leaves use 2g of Light Green modelling paste

Step 43
Roll into small cones and mark the centre line with the veiner tool

Step 44
Glue into position on the tree and your cute little koala is finished!
