lolkeinthatsghey Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Trying to make some reptile (specifically snake) scales. I wanted a textured effect for my painting. Attempts made already: clay: I'm not clay person so it broke in the kiln 😂 Paper/magazine: cut it into shape of scale and layered it with glue, but it takes way too much time and even then it doesn't come out right If you have any ideas, I'm willing to try! You could also suggest a new way to do the failed attempts. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw0573 Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 I want to say last time I took art was in grade 8. Glue for all of the following. 1. If the snake is small enough you can use fish scales. 2. Thin cardbaord? The ones used for cereal boxes. 3. Hard plastics, like cut from a cup or something.  Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
22033Lauren Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 You could try hot gluing or super gluing beads/sequins. Good luck! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
