Part 5 -> Part 6 (FINISH!)
ROCKY IS ALIVE!!! I've just finished him and it's been such a fun process. Being able to make a thing by hand is just sooo satisfying, I could have 3D printed him, and yeah he would have probably been more accurate. But making him from scratch with literally blood, sweat and a couple of tears have given me soo much crafting joy. And getting to finally paint him just made him so real.
The painting process was the most fun part, I always remember Adam Savage' quote when weathering a prop; "I know it might look great to you right now with 2 colours on it, always put that third colour in, it will always make you happier." And it's soo true! My Rocky has browns, reds, greys, and for every colour added he's become more and more alive.
Oh and I made a tshirt for my Ryland Grace outfit as well!
