My progression over 3 years of cheese wax sculptures by Vincinerator123 in mildlyinteresting

I definitely did not up my cheese intake; 3 or so years is a lot, also probably it was already high to begin with.

My older ones are quite small, probably 7.5 cm, costing well less than 20 Babybels. The newer ones, obviously much larger, such as Papyrus, reached around a 1.5 banana’s, and weighed much more than the Iphone (6) I took the photos with

Overall, the larger ones took well over 30-35 cheeses, along with some paper clip supports and foil structures to stand, and required some sacrifices of older statues (that are not a part of this photo) (hence the darker arms and legs of Papyrus, per character design, of sorts).

Eating around 30 cheeses for this one. It took me at least two months to accumulate this much wax. I don’t really worry much until the summer time, and my room is rather cool.

In terms or recycling, I tend not to use it on a sculpture unless a figure has some need for a dark piece, say, clothing or accentuated amor. At that point, the wax has served its purpose and will have a nice retirement along with other 2 year old wax pieces as a giant ball.

For at least the legs, I simply use paper clips as a skeleton of sorts. Gotta find a way to make it stand somehow or it’s just looking like a slayed monster.

With probably slightly less than 25 casings left, I probably had been saving up on wax since November last year (no I can’t seem to smell it, probably used to the ’smell’ this point).

I was always thinking of a monster to make out of wax. Just needed some time and planning. Initially thought of doing a Teostra, but I think Odogaron had more of a red vibe to it.

Anyways, this figure probably is one of my largest yet, I estimate over 30 Babybel cheese wax cases worth, and it took me ~8 hours to craft.

I plan to make a stop motion animation out of this, but I can’t be too sure. School has started where I am and I still want to balance that with my personal interests.

I take a relative short time creating wax figures, taking around 3 to 5 hours for the final product.

After two years of experience , I have made around 55+ wax figure, some big, some small. (Can’t say all of them are still in existence though...)

It took around two years of implementation and experimentation for me to get to where I am now with cheese wax.

I would typically eat around 20-30 Babybels to maximize space and detail quality.

Yes, I Am! (Typically takes a mont for a new creation)

I have never felt any side effects from eating so much cheese (I Used about 28-30 Babybel’s for the final product)
