intro post!! °‧ 𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 ·｡

welcome to my blog !! right off the bat, lets get some things clear:

SO DNI: MINORS (sorry gang this aint the place for ya) AND DNI + KYS: TERFS, SWERFS, RACISTS, SEXISTS, ZIONISTS, ANTISEMITES, ISLAMOPHOBES, RIGHT WINGERS, ZOOPHILES, PEDOS, BIGOTS.

now that's over with:

hi! my name is moon and this is my personal tumblr. i'm studying ecology because i want to become a dolphin behaviorist (with a focus on orcas). i'm against wild animal captivity, capitalism, the animal product industry. no borders, no nations. this blog is for weirdos, freaks, autistics, dykes, nerds, people who eat roadkill, adhders who have four deadlines due but are patching their crustpants, squatters who volunteer at soup kitchens and people bullied out of being a horsegirl. furries, therians, systems, boydykes and girlfags welcome <3

my obsessions:

➛ ORCAS orcas are my biggest love !! i know almost all there is to know about them. my favourite orca fact is that pods have completely unique hunting, behavioral and migrational patterns and dialects !! they're so smart :3

➛ BONES i collect and process bones! i do this both as a hobby and as a volunteer skeletal taxidermist at a museum. if you could use help cleaning bones you can always send me a message!! while skeletal taxidermy is my thing, i also know a lot about dressing carcasses, tanning hides and other forms of traditional taxidermy.

➛ HORSES i have always been a huge horsegirl, mini me used to know everything about horses. while i don't standardly ride anymore, i haven't lost my passion. one day i'll have a noble steed of my own <3

➛ I ALSO LIKE: writing - reading - sewing - horror media - physical media - movies - music - punk - drumming - art - making art - zines - queer history - costume history - ecology - anatomy - ethology - fungi - plants - birds - small mammals - bats - bugs - isopods - clothing - diy - painting - makeup - tattoos - piercings - yelling into a loudspeaker & terrorising nazis

could you give a tutorial for the barbed wire stitching please? ^_^

Sure! I've never done a tutorial before, so I'm sorry if this is a little confusing 💀

The whole design is made of simple straight stitches, so it's pretty easy :)

1. Make a diagonal stitch, then make another one in the opposite direction to create an 'X', that is wider toward the end.

2. Make two more diagonal stitches to create another X attached to the end of the first one.

3. Make two more diagonal stitches that face outward, creating the 'barbs'

3. Create straight horizontal stitches between the barbs, I'd say about 3-5, depending on how far apart you make the stitches.

4. Create two diagonal stitches facing outward again, facing the opposite direction of the first two barbs, closing off the first shape.

5. Create another X between the barbs, and repeat the process again until you reach the end of whatever you're embroidering :)

I would suggest making the X's a bit longer and narrower than I did here, because I think it looks a bit better that way, but honestly it doesn't matter all that much :)

One thing not enough model kit enthusiasts talk about is how often you can save money by shopping for your hobby tools...in the makeup department.

Sponge painting? Makeup sponges are durable and have fine pores for smooth paint finishes. Need a plastic file? Glass nail files are half the price of gunprimer. Want to remove nub marks? Nail buffing/polishing blocks are less than a buck and you can cut them to size. Detail painting? You can get a 100 pack of eyeliner brushes or ultra fine nail art brushes for less than $10. I've had $2 makeup tweezers last me longer than the DSPIAE specialty ones. Paper nail files are even cheaper than sandpaper sheets. A cheap makeup brush set is perfect for weathering and dry brushing.

And if you just happen to find some nail polish that piques your interest while you're there, even better.

If you want to rope in the tabletop roleplaying crowd as well, it's worth noting that most commercially available dice bags are literally just jewellery pouches that've been relabelled and marked up by a couple hundred percent. You'll have a much wider selection of colours and styles than your local game shop's standard black, blue and brown, too; don't you want your dice to feel pretty?
