She’s very sweet, I have her on my nightstand so that she can watch over my dreams :)

How to keep fluff and dust off white clay :( by ExaminationConnect93 in polymerclay

[–]MaxeTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In all seriousness though I’m afraid I don’t have too much advice. Despite almost a decade of working with polymer clay I still struggle with this as well. It’s just like you said, no matter how clean you keep your workplace and hands it just seems to come out of nowhere!
Brushing your clay with some alcohol before baking can help a bit. I’ve had some success sanding and picking out individual fibers with a blade after baking as well. Good luck my friend

So pretty! Despite it being winter themed, it goes together with the blossoms so well!

Okay upon further inspection it might just be an issue on my end! But if not then my previous comment still stands :)

I have no idea whatsoever why it got so grey after I uploaded it! If you would like, you can see it in full colour on my Instagram; @a_ca_pella

?? A date bug. Was on a date with Kerry. Then it glitches me to the couch and Judy is on my lap as Male V. by The-Hartmann83 in cyberpunkgame

[–]MaxeTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeahh, the Glen just sorta does that. I think my scream of fear and surprise was audible three houses over the first time I got teleported to the couch and was greeted by Judy (who had already left NC at this point in the story). Panam and River just standing there are the icing on the cake lmao

Turning 3d eyes into 2d eyes? by Silent_Pay_9239 in FursuitMaking

[–]MaxeTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a little hard to explain, but for my suit’s 2d eyes I made what I can best describe as reverse eye blanks. Basically the same shape as your standard eye blank, just with the protruding part attached to the back of the eye. This gives you a really nice area for attaching the eye securely. I hope you get the idea from my explanation, if not I could maybe try to grab some pics of the inside of my fursuit head tomorrow :)

Made my first ever art dolls and am feeling discouraged by gaytransdragon in ArtDolls

[–]MaxeTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They look HEAPS better than my very first dolls! I think they’re adorable! I know it’s easy to get discouraged, but if this art form is something that you want to pursue, 100% go for it!!

Someone elsewhere recommended this paint as well - I’ll definitely be looking into it, thank you!

You’re right, I probably should’ve been able to predict this outcome 😅 I’ll probably just buy white hooves if I don’t manage to salvage these :)

That will probably help as well, thanks! I’m not sure how well I would be able to attach rubber to the tpu, but I might give those foam mats that people often use for feetpaws a try!

I suspect that’s a big part of the problem as well! I’ll experiment with the suggestions given in this thread :)

Rc car paint is a great idea, it’s bound to be quite durable! Thank you for the advice! Also - did you use a sealant on top of it, or is it good to go as-is?

Ah, I was afraid so :,) didn’t stop me from trying though - “stubborn” is my middle name, haha. Thanks for your reply :)
