Pipe Cleaner Fish: Techniques for Tail

Video Transcript

"So we've finished our wrapping the pipe cleaners around the body to give it a semi solid looking body. We don't want it to be too solid this is a pipe cleaner structure and we want to recognize it for what it is. But now I'm going to work on the tail. So some different things that we can do with the tail, I showed you the combined and also the separated tail we're just going to make sure that these are shaped out the way that we want them, you know, bend them out a little bit more and then we're going to add some pipe cleaners a color that we haven't used. And we're just going to zigzag. We're going to zigzag these around just to create some color but not anyway as dramatic as the body. Just going to bring them through just to give them a little bit of color and a little bit of shape. Changing the dynamic a little bit and bring them back down, you can do the same thing to the other side of the tail fin wrapping that around. We can also take some tissue paper at this point for the tail and we can wrap it in, staple it on, glue it on, weave it through to change up the product, change the medium a little bit. We're also going to go ahead and wrap this side. Once we're done with the tail we can move on with the fins."
