Description

Learn techniques for the design, modelling and painting of limited edition customised pieces

You will begin by getting to know the work of Mr. Mitote, who will also talk about how he got involved in the creation of art toys. In addition, you will discover who your favorite artists are and what inspires you to carry out your creations.

Mitote will talk about the different platforms that are on the market and will show you the myriad of materials and tools that you can use to intervene and shape your own characters.

You will carry out tests and modeling exercises with plasticine and baking, which will test the resistance of the different materials.

Once you are more familiar with the materials, you will begin with the conceptualization of your final piece. You will look for references and make a sketch. You will choose the shapes that will make up your figure, as well as the color palette, which will be of great help when planning the use of materials to model and paint your final piece.

Finally, Mitote will give you some tips on how to paint your piece with spray, the use of airbrush for smaller areas and the use of the brush for details such as eyes or hair.
