Manufacturing a Yellow Hound

BiffManufacturing a Yellow Hound is a short online film showing the process of making this cool plaster dog sculpture. The armature is bundles of foil squished into shape and joined with masking tape. The shape is then covered with plaster bandage and painted. This elephant and bee are made the same way.

I found the yellow hound at Naive Knitting where the maker, Martha Wasacz, explains how the dog came about and fitted in with her thoughts about an open source policy towards crafting. I think that’s how it works, too.
