over-complicating costumes since forever ago
So while my online demonstration of mold making is not really optimised as it’s slow going but here is a question: Can anyone guess at why I have been trimming the edges of my molds? I just cut back not only the excess drip marks but also the thin edge left behind. I am curious…
These are two casts from the same mold. I love my Ashara but I basically made her from an imperfect cast. The mold had separated a bit making for blunt montral and the tops of the lekku was too thin so I cut them off. This leads to the montral sticking away from the face….
This works! I love me some smart bb and wp! #ahsokalives first texture pass. I need to let it all cool so texture can be carved in. Atm it’s all smooshing. Overnight will do it by pinkdiamond, on Flickr Yes! #maleficent horn texture and #ahsokalives #togruta skin marking success! Now to do this over the…
I haven’t shared here, I have just been so tired after sculpting (it’s full body, standing, sitting, holding- something this size and floating in the air? yeah you need to use your whole body!) The latest huge 10 update has also changed all my import settings and my phone is not happy! So I’m still…
That would be a 3D scan of my horns created from about 40 photos from my plain old DSLR! I have yet to find the “remove everything but the selection” to remove the background of my workroom but.. but.. I may be able to tidy the sculpt and more the table more centrally in…
I have three lace front wigs that were not entirely perfect. The first was just a size too small for my head, the other two were slightly too dark for Elsa. Step One: A new wig cap. This is a strip of high quality powernet (the rest is set aside to redo my Pink…
Yesterday I built up clay walls and supports for the horns. I made sure to really support them as the ultracal winds up very heavy during the molding process. Here you can see the shallow keys cut into the clay walls. I used a brush to apply the product and so totally was unable to get…
So I thought I’d share how I matched one side to the other 🙂 After tidying up the proportions I started to transfer the lines by using a divider (scribe compass.) I did this along the top section on the inside as well as the outside. After that I used the needle point picker from…
Currently working in three fandoms. While each set of horns is being made in clay I am using slightly different techniques to support them. I’m also hoping to find some way to scan these, though scanning is very expensive as there are very few people with them as opposed to printers! The weather has continued to…
MADAME VASTRA SIDE TWO by admin, January 29, 2015 Yep, masking tape to help measure 🙂 The tape is now gone. The lines are balanced but definitely individual on each side 🙂 hoping to get this back half done this week. But I am permanently fatigues and this is making time management difficult.
