Abstract
Abstract A method for manufacturing model statues or profile pictures wherein a base shape or body and various components are made from a flexible material, such as synthetic resins, clay, gypsum, wood or rubber. The various components are glued in place on the body. A thin covering of cloth or paper is then placed over the body with the glued components to apply an even finish to the surface of the body.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
90 words
A method of producing a three-dimensional solid art object comprising: forming a solid basic body and component parts from a shapeable art medium in initial shapes corresponding approximately to those of said solid basic body and said component parts when said three-dimensional solid art object is assembled and finished, adhesively attaching said component parts on said solid basic body to form an assembled object with a three-dimensional surface; adhesively and conformationally attaching a covering sheet to the three-dimensional surface of said assembled object to form said three-dimensional solid art object.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
90 words
A method of producing a three-dimensional solid art object comprising: forming a solid basic body and component parts from a shapeable art medium in initial shapes corresponding approximately to those of said solid basic body and said component parts when said three-dimensional solid art object is assembled and finished, adhesively attaching said component parts on said solid basic body to form an assembled object with a three-dimensional surface; adhesively and conformationally attaching a covering sheet to the three-dimensional surface of said assembled object to form said three-dimensional solid art object.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
