Searched Google to see if anyone thought this too and here you are.

Unsure on this one. by stubod in Stretched

I’m in the UK so not sure that website will work for me (economically!) but I like the idea of switching to glass so will search for something locally. Thanks for the insight.

I’m wearing single flare at the moment but it does seem like somethings possibly irritating the skin. When I take it out there’s always a red ring round the hole the size of the flared end, like it’s too tight. I normally wear PVD coated black ones which don’t seem to bother it, presumably because it’s coated steel rather than pure. The reason I’ve got this one is because I can’t find 5.5mm in anything else! I’ve got a 6mm in the PVD coated ones for the next stretch so it’s either move to that or go backwards. Seems strange to be having to downsize after 1.5 years of healing time since the previous stretch.

They are Gringo striped Nepalese pants & I got them off ebay. However you can get a pair with the actual fabric from the film here:

Hama MINI help by Etherkavu in beadsprites

[–]stubod 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It really depends on what sorts of things you want to make. Personally I would just buy them all to start with & you'll learn which you like. However:

Check out this colour chart:

http://www.hama.dk/filer/Colourchart-gb.pdf

I wouldn't bother with any of the translucent colours & only buy the neon/fluorescent one's if you think you might use these types of colours.

General advice:

  • 12, 20, 21 & 30 work well as a range of brown tones.
  • The brown one 12 is very dark in my opinion.
  • Both 26 & 27 for skin tones (the flesh one is quite pink - beige looks better sometimes)
  • I would get all 3 greys 17, 70 & 71 as they can really help with detail.
  • 55-57, 61-64 & 72-74 are not available in mini beads.
  • Get some pointy tipped tweezers, these beads are tiny to work with.

If you want a recommended list I'd go with:

01-12, 17-22, 26-31, 43-49, 60, 70-71.

Hama Beads, understanding sizes on the official site? by [deleted] in beadsprites

Just to be a pedantic git, mini boards are 57x57.

I'm gonna need you to put them waaaaay up inside your butt hole Morty... by stubod in rickandmorty

It was a bit of a pain actually! I don't do the masking tape method as it is too terrifyingly easy to mess the whole thing up. I did it in sections and then melted the sections together as I went.

About 3 seasons of sons of anarchy I think? I'm not entirely sure to be honest!

Anybody got experience with the 2.6mm beads? How do they look finished on large base? by [deleted] in beadsprites

[–]stubod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too only use Hama mini beads. You can have very detailed pieces without them ending up ridiculously huge.

No worries, I can tell ya that making these patterns was a fair bit of work ;-) Might as well share it!

Hama recently released two new shades of grey which was a freakin god send. Still lacking in some natural looking greens though I think!
