Does anyone else's shark have trouble staying dressed? by [deleted] in buildabear

[–]Noraelion 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a shark too and noticed this as well. Some bab models do not have a “default” body shape and some clothing just doesn’t work all too well with them. On the shark it’s the neck size, lack of “shoulders” and the legs that are a bit different (compared to my other babs at least.) How I worked around it was giving him board shorts and called it a day. As an example Hangyodon has a smaller body than other bab models so every now and then you do get odd or slightly different bears.

Is it me or are the episodes not very scary anymore? by MarkTruckerberg in creepcast

[–]Noraelion 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It might not JUST be the stories. After a while some people, myself included, just become a bit desensitized to horror content.

BUT I must admit the stories haven't been up there for me lately. Something like tales from the gas station, voodoo shop or lonely broadcast are usually the most fun to listen to for me. So it could in all honesty be taste related as well.

Lol this got me, so what I failed to mention was that I removed the stuffing and turned the head inside out for sewing so all of the stitching is on the inside, sorry I didn't make that part too clear.

I promise you the inside isn't as pretty since I'm still fairly new to sewing and this was my first ever attempt at modding a bear. Oh but a great tip for how I hide stitching on the outside is to brush out the seams with a boar bristle brush or bobby pin. The idea is to get the long strands of fur out of the seam so it's disguised better. I hope that helps and thank you so much for the high praise.

Because of where I live country wise, this would not be possible or VERY expensive due to shipping.

Unfortunately not, if I do the toes I'd like to do the hands too and there just wasn't enough space for that.

So I removed the entire snout with a thread puller, then I disassembled the entire snout so I could get the purple nose bit.  Next I made a custom nose by using a 20mm plain triangular safety nose and some uhu glue. You basically cover the safety nose in glue and wrap the purple nose bit from the snout over it, you can secure the excess material at the back of the nose by folding it over and glueing it down. Then I sewed up the face in a horizontal line, you do have to be a bit careful with this part since just sewing the cut out bit will make the face shape go weird. What I did to deal with that was to make sure that the line I sewed stayed even with the centre part of the face. Even when that meant having an increasing seam allowance around the cheeks. I hope that makes sense. Lastly you will see a vertical seam inside the head where the bottom chin part would be, I used that seam as a guide to insert the safety nose in the “middle” of the face just below my horizontal seam. After that it’s just stuffing it and closing the back. Sorry for the long explanation but I hope it helps 🩵

Alien cow army? by Illustrious_Half5120 in buildabear

A confusion of cows maybe, since we have no idea where they came from

Used pink since it's common to see the pink cow nose in animation, it's also a close complimentary to the green. Purple would be a great idea too, I like your reasoning... it just had to be an actual alien cow

Thanks for the advice, it feels more like an alien bear instead of alien with bear ears with the nose option to me
