How to make wings from fimo-gel
To make wings from Fimo Gel, you need to figure out what this material is. This is a decorative material that you need to bake in the oven for use for 20 minutes at a temperature of 130 degrees. After baking, the material remains transparent and has a slightly bluish tint, which is most noticeable in natural light. This material is particularly flexible, so the wings from it on the wire can be bent as you like. Well suited for simulating insect wings.
To make wings, take:
– solder and soldering iron;
– copper wire (be sure to be copper, because it will not work to be soldered);
– acrylic paints for painting the frame;
– a piece of glass;
– directly Fimo-gel.
First you need to solder the frame, the shape of which will depend only on your imagination. You can make both a closed circuits with streaks and wings with several main guides. When soldering, try to make the spiket places as accurately as possible. If something does not come out very well, after the end of the soldering you can process the frame with sandpaper.
Painted base for the wings tint the acrylic paint. Acrylic paint can be taken in different colors.
After that, it is necessary to degrease the glass, attach the wings of the wings made to it using paper tape, which will help to press it more tightly to the glass surface and protect it from random shifts in the process of pouring the wing with a fimo-gel.
Before you start filling the fimo-gel, make sure that the frame is located on the glass evenly and touches the glass with the entire surface.
Then pour the wing frame with gel. Start with the contour, then go to the center. You can leave gaps so that they are noticeable, make them large, since the gel spreads well. If you want to make a thin wing, pour a gel and wait until it spreads. You can specially make an uneven edge. If you have an uneven edge by chance, after baking, you can trim the edges with scissors.
Put glass with wings made of fimogel into the oven preheated to 130 degrees for twenty minutes.
