3. How are you going to tell that stroy?
What story is your
monster telling?
How are you going to tell that stroy?

4. Start by creating a pinch pot
Turn pinch pot on it’s side Take some time to discuss how we are telling a story visually what can your mouth tell us about the story our monster is going to tell us? (We look in mirrors etc.)

5. * Add uvula and teeth. How many teeth what style and shape do they need to be. Again don’t forget you are telling a story. What do your teeth tell the viewer?

6. Adding a tongue: I have them roll a thick coil then flatten it out with the heal of their hand. Use texture tools to add the texture of the tongue
Adding lips: I have them roll two tapered coils to create lips.

7. From there we add
Feet (for stability, make thicker)
Eyes, eye lids , eye brows
Arms
Tails
Accessories (these tell the story of the monster.)
