Seaming materials and what they can potentially be made out of. Text of the image below

Materials

The materials of Seamings can vary greatly. The most common material is flesh, but they can also be created out of metals, fabrics, and other materials such as glass with things inside them, porcelain, and extremely rarely even the magic inside the Seaming can be leaking out. These materials can be mixed and matched across the Seamings body. For the materials it's best to think; what is the purpose of the Seaming? The Seamings purpose would show on their body. Like if they were made to be in a forge they would be made of strong metals.

Seamings hair also follow the same rules. They can also be made out of a variety of materials that can be mixed and matched. The most common is keratin but metals and fabrics are also used. Seamings are very expressive with their bodies and appearance because their forms are very malleable. With help they can customise to their whims.

Stitching styles for Seamings ^^ Text of the image blow.

Stitching

Seamings are traditionally stitched together with a needle and thread but some have more unique stitching. Other stitching techniques used are; adhesives, stapling, and cauterisation. Seamings have also taken to switching their stitching from what their creator chose for them. A lot of Seamings pick one style of stitching but some for aesthetic reasons pick two or more.

Alternative stitching styles. As long as the stitching style is clear it can appear in any style. Adhesive stitching has to be wavy. Cauterise stitching has to be jagged. Staple stitching has to be industrial. Traditional stitching has to look like it was done by a thread and needle.

A little bit about Seamings plus a bit of quick art. The text in the image is below.

Seamings are experiments abandoned by humanity. Humanity has been chasing perfect resurrected life and some just don’t make the cut. Why is humanity creating life? That is something the Seamings aren't privy to.

Seamings created their own communities to have a sense of belonging and togetherness since they are chased out of the human towns and cities. So they’ve crafted their own havens far from humanity. Though they still have strong and often times complicated feelings for humans. Especially towards their creators that abandoned them. Some Seamings love their creator, others hate them, plenty though feel like their creators don't matter anymore.

What is Seamings?

Seamings is a Frankenstein and Body Horror inspired Open Species I am currently developing. I’m not sure where I will go with this if anywhere but I love being creative and I want to try sharing my creativity with everyone else. I took a liking to closed and open species but I knew I wouldn’t be able to manage and run one so here I am dipping my toes in and trying something new.

Here I will be posting WIPs, worldbuilding, and finished pieces. I might also do adopts and other things like raffles. Those will likely be hosted on my Toyhou.se if I decide to do so. Next to my art I might also post some written works.

Currently this is just a one person passion project. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

TW for Seamings: body horror, gore, blood, death, occultism, surgical themes, supernatural themes, dolls, suggestive themes, and violence.

Stay safe out there and enjoy!
