In order to make this technique work successfully, here are a few things to keep in mind: Tips for Replicating 3D Objects with Paper Mache These strategies: covering something in clear tape, wrapping an object in tin foil or cling film, placing objects inside plastic bags, or placing templates inside plastic folders, all allow you to work over the top of the object with paper mache to replicate it. As you can see, I have also placed tape lines inside one half of the sphere, so I can use them as layout lines for mandala-type patterns. For most of my projects, I wrap it tightly in cling film and use tape to stick the cling film smoothly to the surface. Molding an acrylic sphere: I ordered this large, 2-part acrylic sphere online, and have used it for many projects, including the paper mache puffer fish in this picture.(This is my first experiment with polymer clay, and I am getting used to working with it.) In the image above, I have wrapped a bowl in tin foil and am placing polymer clay over the top of it, creating a 3D shape that I can bake off. ![]()
