Skills You’ll Learn

How to make a silicone mold

You will learn how to make a mold modeled after a real mandarin orange that does not contain air bubbles.

Techniques to make mandarin oranges look more realistic

You can finish Sukeru-kun the color you want, and you will be able to use 3 types of clay properly.

Express juicy fruit juice

You will master the technique of adding juice to broken mandarin oranges, and you will be able to make mandarin oranges fresher.

You'll be able to make “mandarin oranges” completely realistically!

If you take this class, you will be able to make your own silicone molds, and you will be able to create your own original parts without relying on commercially available molds. By changing the clay used, various textures can be expressed, and the range of works expands. You will also learn how to make “sukeru-kun” the tangerine color you want, and apply the expression “eaten mandarin orange.” UV resin has become easy to use, but let's master proper handling.

Effects you can expect after taking the course

  • Master a realistic one-bushy mandarin orange with skin, and by applying it, you will be able to make thin-peeled and edible mandarin oranges
  • You will understand the characteristics of the three types of clay, and you will be able to use different types of clay depending on what you want to express
  • By mastering the mandarin orange, a part that other artists haven't worked on very often, you will be able to enhance the originality of your work and differentiate it

Recommended classes for people like this

  • Those who want to try making clay from now on
  • Those who want to master how to handle Sukeru-kun
  • Those who are struggling or impatient because they compare themselves with the artists around them
  • Those who want to increase sales even more than they are now.

What makes this class so special

Composed based on success stories and failure examples that active artists have actually experienced

The artist herself explains in detail not only the techniques and techniques she has learned over time and money, but also why they choose those materials. What I'm going to teach you in this class is “Everyone will be able to make it easily!” There may not be such a thing, but the amount of time you take will be your own solid confidence and asset. It's not something anyone can do; let's have fun creating together so that you can have your own weapon.

Does it only look like a real mandarin oranges?! Techniques that pursue more realism

You can learn the subtle coloring tricks of “Sueru-kun,” which is considered difficult.

Also, it is possible to express various textures by mixing or independently of the three types of clay. Since you can master how to handle silicone, you will be able to mold a variety of things.

Hello. My name is Tsuki Kakera.

I'm an artist who loves making transparent fruits.

Now, we have received a voice from CLASS101 and we have decided to start a video course.

There are many difficult processes in making fruit, and you may not be able to make the fruit you want right away. In the course, difficult processes were omitted as much as possible, and the process was made so that the fruit could be seen even more clearly.

There is no right way to make it, so please successfully incorporate my production method into your own.

Also, the more you do modeling, the better you get, but making it well is not the goal.

Technology and techniques are just means.

Let's have some fun first. Then, let's find our own “weapon.”

Please stay with us until the end.
