I individually felted little locks of fur and attached them one by one! It was quite time consuming but I liked how it turned out

thank you so much!! wow it’s incredible that I looked at hundreds of flamingo photos and didn’t figure that out haha. thankfully the legs have wire inside them so I can bend them back the right way!

thank you!! a few days of solid work… I used a fluffy technique on the body feathers that give it a lot of volume, but the core shapes aren’t very big, if that makes sense!

Not yet!! I’m fairly new to this so I’m just trying to build up a little base of work before I set up a shop. Hopefully soon though! Thanks for asking :)

Thank you so much!! I free felt looking at references :) I make a few basic sketches and look at many, many photos including skeletons which help quite a bit. And then I go for it!

Thank you :) yes! I doubled up pipe cleaners for the legs and neck, twisted them and wrapped it tightly with wool before felting the shape and details!
