In order to make a model of the human heart, one first needs to have pictures of how it looks. Once one has located the pictures, then one starts to construct the model.

Next, decide how big you want your model. If you want it to life sized, you will probably need an armature. An armature is a framework to put the clay on. You can use old screening mesh, a ball, plastic wrap, or anything that has a shape that is similar to the thing you are making. When you build your armature, remember to put a stick stand in it to hold your model off the table.

If we are using modeling clay (the kind that you buy at a department store), use the base color to make the main body of the model. Then add the arteries, veins, and valves using different colors. This will give the model variety and interest...and give you a better grade!

If you are an advanced student, there are other methods available. One is to use the baked type of clay, commonly known as Sculpy. This product will enable you to make a very detailed model in pieces and bake them in an oven. When it is done, the model can be glued together or velcroed so that the interior can be illustrated. This method takes skill and much work, usually more than a couple of days.

Basically get clay and mould it into a shape of a skull. First you will need clay. If you don't already have some, you can Google recipes for homemade clay that are usually very inexpensive and easy to make.

Now, you'll need images of a skull you would like to sculpt. It's best to get images from all angles, for example: Face, left side, right side, top, bottom, and back. It gives you the full effect of the image. Of course you can always wing it. With that URL above, it also gives you tips on a few different ways that you can let your piece dry. Google is an excellent place to find answers on line about questions like these. Also, you can go to your local high school and ask the art teacher for help (even if you're not a student), just check in at the office first to make sure its okay.

First, you make an armature, which is basically the skeleton of the dragon. then you can cover it with the type of clay you want to use. Feel free to add texture and all once it is made. oh, and if you don't have enough colored clay you can always paint it after you bake it.
