Just received my Songlines Magazine subscription:: "Three leading sape' players performed in Lan E Tuyang, joined by Luyoh Anak Rawing, the delightful nose flute player who charmed the theatre audience with his extraordinary playing and birdlike dancing. Another addition to the group was Alena Murang, one of Mathew Ngau’s star students who also appeared in her own, all-female sapé group, Ilu Leto (meaning ‘We, the Ladies’ in the Kenyah language), comprising six women, who are all from different Sarawakian ethnic group".

Hey everyone, this is Eve.
In this video, I will be making Porg from Star Wars' Last Jedi.
Porgs are birdlike creatures with cute, dark brown eyes and loving personalities.

Let’s begin.
First, I am going to make the shape of the body with a hard wire.
I will make two loops.
Roll the aluminum foil into the shape of the body.
Keep pounding the foil with a hammer.
Install the wire as shown earlier.
Connect the wire to the feet, the head and the wired feathers.
It is best to use a soft wire for the feathers and feet so that they are more flexible.

Next, use paper clay for the base of the mouth.
The fangs will be made using this base.
It is best to work from the front teeth to the back teeth.
After shaping the teeth, allow the clay to dry.
Once it is dry, carefully scrape the teeth into the proper shape.

Next, use silicon to make Porg's legs and feet more flexible.
Mix the silicon with cornstarch.
After stirring, the mixture will harden on its own.
Once it hardens, color with oil paint.
After you finish painting the wired legs,
apply cornstarch to the surface to set the shape.

You don't have to move the feet.
You will use paper clay to make the shape.
Make three finger shapes and scrape them when they are dry.
Use yellow water-based paint for the base layer of the feet.
Once this dries, use an airbrush with a orange- brown color.
The nails can be painted with dark brown water-based paint.
The legs and feet are now complete.

Now, let’s move on to the body.
Apply white silicone directly and follow up with cornstarch.
Apply from top to bottom to make the surface smooth.

Next is the tongue.
Mix enough cornstarch and silicone to form the shape of the tongue and the jaw.
Paint the tongue and jaw silicone to a natural color.
For flexible feathers, lay the aluminum foil on the wire and make the foundation with a glue gun.
Paint with gray colored silicon on the foundation.
Then add cornstarch and shape it.

Moving on to the eyes.
Porg’s pupils are black and the color around the eyes are dark brown.
Let’s make the pupils first.
Put the paper clay in a round silicone mold and shape it after it dries.
Paint it black around the pupils.
Fill in the pupils and harden with UV light.
Since the surface has high transparency, make the color darker.
Change the color of the resin and overlay a few times.
Make a gradation and give those eyes a touch of depth.
To express Porg’s puppy eyes, add abrasives and carefully polish.
Please remember to adjust the position of the eyes.
Paint the clay in the mouth as the same color as the tongue .
Make the upper lip part using a glue gun.
Shape this part with white silicone, starting from the top.
Form the mouth shape and using an utensil, create the opening of the nose.
Paint the back in grey colored silicone.
Once it is smooth, form the appearance of hair.

Next, paint yellow colored silicon on top of the eyes.
And then draw lines in the appearance of fur around the eyes.
The tip of the feathers and the tip of the tail are black,
it is best to paint colors separately to make a gradation.

Finally, color only a little with oil paint.
Be careful to apply only a little paint to protect the color.
As the last step, gently clean the eyes with a soft wipe.
A moveable Porg is now complete!
