We are proud of it but also know that it can be improved, its for example not mega smooth and it could even be better into detail and shape but we are working on that

I want to know everything
I heard once somewhere (but probably not a reliable source) that they first make clay figures, cover that with paper and afterwards remove the clay. For the smaller ninots i can imagine, but for the larger pieces it seems a bit difficult to me.
We have some different technicques. Most of the time it start with a welded frame. Either we make from styrofoam then sculptures and papier mache that. The other method: we use 6mm steel wire to weld the outline, cover it with chicken fense and use foam to create the last layer. This is then papier mached. Small details are made from for example news papers folded together (lumps? is that the word?).
And we have some additional material called fluff. It comes from the diaper industry. It is cardboard defibrized into the fibres it consists of. It creates some sort of paper clay if we use glue with it. It tend to get as hard as the cardboard it was.
I am now facing the challenge to get things smoother en more details but at the same time trying not to increase the time for each figure to much....

But you happen to know more?
You have sources or you maybe have, pictures of how they do it? The fallas itself i ve seen a thousand times on google but the how they do it pics are very rare to me....

Thanks in advance!

"Dense" means *I'm* not smart.  I was being thick-headed.

I don't understand their use of plaster, unless they are using the plaster on the top surface of the ninots, to give the smooth finish.  Plaster could be applied and sanded smooth.  Could that be how they are doing it?
