OKAY SO!
I am alive! My mouse broke- so I (having learned I'm not good at coping with not having adequate computer access) started working on this project that I'd started that I got really intimidated about->
Remember?
Okay, so the mouse broke on...Saturday (9/2)? and I've done very little else than work on this since...and it's uhm... almost a week later (9/9)? Yes? ::checks calendar because I've literally been that detached from reality::
Yes.
I'm going to tell you right now I have bled on this, like...this is a project of love and when I say love, I mean a deep intimate love that somehow survives lots and lots of crying and fights and curling up into a ball in a corner, but-somehow-they-remember-your-anniversary-love...
I AM OPEN TO ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING!
THAT IS RIGHT! I will teach anyone what I've learned, what didn't work, what does, everything.
So that's what I've been doing.
I'm still not done yet- I don't know how I'm going to do those legs and paint doesn't stick to Apoxie ™ very well...and I still have to figure out how to attach the mane, tail and scales...
Oh! The good news is I also got a mouse finally. :)
Please ignore my messy desk.

Oh wow! this is looking so gorgeous so far! Was is hard to felt around the armature? how did you felt the face/ears?
-
THAT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME COMING FROM YOU!
THANK YOU! gosh uhm oh! YES it is hard! I had to glue some uhm.....pipe-cleaners to spots to get the wool to "stick" and sometimes I'd have to glue bits to get it started?I flocked the face and ears actually! I'm still not sure if it was as successful as I'd like? but I do feel like it helped make the head look more a part of the body :D
-
that makes a lot of sense, maybe using some sheet felt glued around the hard bits would help? or maybe in the future, squishing some felt around the still curing apoxie would help.
I think flocking the face was a great idea, it really does make it more cohesive :D
I'll tell you my absolutely favorite detail right now is in the bottom picture in the hip/rump area it seems to have a swirl in it, whether intended or not it gives it a stary night vibe and I love it ;_; anyways, can't wait to see more <3
-
HMM!! Sheet felt! that would have been a better idea than what I'm doing! hahaha- ..in a weird way I feel I'm stuck- since I had to dye wool in one go- and I can't remember the dye- recipe!
Thank you thank you for your encouragement about the flocking! It has given me some stress so having others say that that feel it works well- really relieves my anxiety about it!
hehe THANK YOU! The rump-swirl was an accident! HAHA but in you saying that I am definitely keeping that in there- starry night is one of my favorite paintings!
