After the primer has dried, cover the craft with oil paint. To achieve maximum naturalness, look at the photo of the swan and copy the nuances of the bird's coloring.

After the paint dries, the sculpture is covered with lebanon mobile database for outdoor use. This will protect the swan from bad weather. You can also not paint the bird, but simply varnish it after priming.

Creating your own swan…
The article presents a traditional version of a swan-shaped flowerpot. When creating my swan, I changed some steps to make the sculpture more durable. I sculpted the swan from Polimin reinforcing glue. As the experts said, you can use any cheap ready-made dry mixture for finishing work to create the base. The disadvantage of the glue is that each layer dried for 24 hours.

To thicken the neck, I put a corrugated sleeve on the reinforcement, which allowed me to save on the amount of mortar.

The corrugated sleeve bends well and is easy to put on the reinforcement

The solution doesn't stick well to the bottle, so I stretched a vegetable net over it. The part that covers the hole in the planter will be cut out after the work is finished.

The neck is additionally secured with wire. The soil in the flowerpot does not hold the reinforcement and it constantly falls. Holes are made in the bottle with an awl, wire is inserted into them, the ends of which are bent.
