White Lightning, Billowing Clouds of Ash- finished, in all her glory! Fanart for a character by @calllynx, now brought to life.
I made the base for this sculpture sometime in March (this post), and now she's got all the elements I had originally planned. Took a hell of a long time, but here we are- worth every hour. She's about 26 centimeters/10.3 inches tall total.
The biggest change is, of course, the removable mask. I made it out of epoxy putty, wire, and watercolor paper, and some bamboo for the dangling parts.
It was really fun to make, though it took a lot of work to figure out how to make all the parts click together, be easily put-on-able and take-off-able. But it worked! New technique acquired. I'm quite happy with the results.
Here she is mask-less:
I also added many decorations to her belt-area, with the addition of a sort of calculator-thing to help her with her architecture work.
A ton of work's gone into this piece, and I'm glad to be done with it. Will miss working on it, but I feel I learned a good deal of techniques in doing so, and I'll happily apply them to the next piece. So, keep an eye out for that one, whenever it comes.
She's made with an aluminum wire skeleton, then lots of wool yarn, and some loose wool on top of that. It was all done with needle felting, just like my Hornet figure. She's also poseable because of her skeleton.
It only took me two or three days to make, actually, and I'm pretty happy with the results. I think I learned a lot from making my other wool figurines. Now I kind of want to make another Hornet too, because the Lace is a bit bigger than her. Maybe the next project.
But for now she has not yet met her famous opponent, so she has some moments of peace-
Here's my Watcher! I actually started it right after finishing the DLC in March, but it took quite a while to dry and bake, so I had to wait the last few months before I could paint it. Finally finished!
It's made of baked clay, some wire for the spear, and some epoxy putty for the rot tendrils and Karma flower. The base is inspired by Station Annex, one of my favorite regions in the DLC (...in terms of atmosphere and design, not gameplay).
Voici mon Watcher! Je l’ai en fait commencé juste après avoir fini le DLC en Mars, mais il lui a fallu assez longtemps pour sécher et cuire, alors j’ai dû attendre ces derniers mois avant de pouvoir le peindre. Fini enfin!
C’est fait en argile cuit, un peu de fil métallique pour la lance, et un peu de mastic epoxy pour les vrilles de la pourriture et la fleur de Karma. La base est inspirée par Station Annex, une de mes régions préférées du DLC (...en termes d'atmosphère et design, pas de gameplay).
