Of course there where more than five steps but this is the fifth video and as I stood up my English isn’t that good. I’ve put 5 coating/skin layers on the Tin Tin head and after that I painted it with a couple of layers of acrylic paint.
Here and there I have to do some tiny corrections. I think it looks pretty good for a first project and you should try it too. Thanks to Jonny from Ultimate Paper Mache.
See you soon!

First ‘Draft’ Of My Tin Tin Head






Lovely! I’m so glad you shared your Tin Tin with us. It’s been great fun watching him come alive.
I have always been an avid fan of Tintin, since I was a child, and still have the majority of the published original hardback comic books (in English though, apart from 2 in French and 1 in German). I love your Tintin head, and have enjoyed the journey with you making it. Perhaps you could post a photo of where the Tintin head is going to “live”?!
The question where the head is going to live is an interesting one. Because of some big reorganizations in my life at this moment and a lack of space, I followed the advice of a friend to sell it on eBay.
I’m curious what the result will be and where it will live.
