Today we will learn how to make a Rilakkuma mobile case with silicone clay
this clay is super much more elastic than Jumping Clay That
we used to make the Baymax case
I have used clear silicone
and corn flour
to coloured it i have user acrylic paintures
but you can use permanent markers
You will need plastic film to wrap the mobile
It is Important to wear gloves for working with silicone
Let's see how we do it
We started mixing the yellow and pink acrylic paint
if it is very dark put more yellow
in any case, it will be clear when we mix it with the white corn flour
once the painture is mixed we add the silicone. Beware the silicone brand do you use because some
of them smell very bad
I use the same silicone that is used for plumbing
to cover joints between, for example,
the bathtub and the wall
It can be found in hardware stores or DIY stores
I use clear silicone to obtain better results with the final color
I will use half a silicone tube more or less
mixed the paint with the silicone
Now I put the corn flour on the table and the colored silicone on the top
Remember to work with gloves because the silicone is very sticky
I slowly kneading it
until the clay acquires consistency
Do not put more flour than necessary because otherwise
the clay will crack
on the other hand, if you put little flour
what will happen is that it sticks a lot
Ideally, try small amounts of clay until you will understand the point
and then try with larger amounts
You can not keep this clay because it dries easily
When the dough is ready, cover with plastic wrap your mobile
There should be no wrinkles in the back part
Now I stretch the dough with a rolling pin or a round stick
You can also use
the same paper roll
we extend the dough and cover with her mobile
try to make it with
the same thickness
Now the clay must dry for, at least, one hour
Meanwhile I will make the ears
I make the shape of the case for them to stay well when attached
and I leave to dry
Now I do
some white silicone clay to make
the gut and the nose
I make a ball for the nose
when the silicone clay is dry, you can cut it
Now i cut my case to remove the mobile easily
Carefully clean the leftover flour
we will also make the camera hole
It is best cut with a cutter
the same way I do holes Speaker, hole Charger ...
and now we stick the nose, ears .. using the clear silicone
With this clay you can make also erasers
I paint the ears because it is a small area but also i could have used yellow mass
You can not paint large pieces of silicone because the paints will break
I paint the mustaches but i could have used a permanent marker
Well, we're done
