Clay horse

Recently, many people have been subordinating their lives to the Chinese calendar. And on January 31, the year of the horse begins.
The blue horse is a talisman and should bring good luck all year. Especially if it is made by hand.
The easiest way to make such a talisman is from clay. It is best to buy a special gray clay for modeling.
It is perfectly molded, dries well and is painted. It can even be burned to make the product stronger.
To make a horse, you need to take clay, a stack for plasticine or an ordinary knife to cut pieces from clay.
Pour some water into a bowl to wet your hands.
It is also desirable to make the so-called glue to better connect the parts. To do this, dissolve some clay in a small amount of water until a creamy state.
The horse is made of individual parts, which are connected by clay "glue". We start with the torso. Cut a small piece from clay, mash it and roll up a thick sausage.
You need to gently brush the surface with your fingers so that it is smooth.
The next stage is the manufacture of the neck.
A piece of clay, about half the size of the previous one, is also rolled into a sausage. But it should be on the one hand already.
Attach the neck to the head and apply the joints well.
The head is made of a small piece of clay.
It must be elongated.
You can do this, but if you want, cut the horse's open mouth, as if it is laughing. In this case, when painting, you need to outline the teeth.
After connecting all the parts, we proceed to the manufacture of the legs.
Try to keep them all the same size.
On each leg, mark a thickening on one side - this is a hoof.
When joining the legs to the body,
you can bend them a bit or make them look like a horse is running.
Do not forget your horse to make triangular ears and a long tail.
After drying, usually at least a day, it must be painted.
Your symbol of the year is ready!
