Biblically accurate pigeon.
I picked this up at @newyorkcomiccon.bsky.social from the amazing @mishacak3s.bsky.social
I knew I made the right choice, when she told me it was the last one from the stack.

The final push for my #boogeyman #cosplay.
Due to life hitting me at all angles, I wasn't able to get it ready for Comic Con.
But with fingers crossed, I might just have it ready for Halloween.

MAKE IT REAL!!
A quick side quest to my larger project, the One-Armed Bandit.
The OAB is a #videogame I'm slowly developing.
This coin was designed in #sketchup and then #3Dprinted in pla

Give him some pants and just make him an extra-short angry cowboy.
A real "yosemite sam" trying to pick fights (ideally with a tall farm girl rival.)

1st, Angry-Businessman-Goomba off the conveyor belt.
The next time I make this, I might try some different painting techniques.
This was kit bashed from a number of random toy bits I had laying around, along with some light sculpting

Some tips for anyone getting into mold making. #art #lego #smoothon #silicon #mold

Prep, mold, & cast.
Despite a few air bubbles, the 1st #resin cast of Business-man #Goomba came out quite nice. (I did some repairs with #apoxy putty.)
Added a foot peg, so I can mount it.
What should the base be?
A #mario Brick or a ?-block.

Now that I've been dabbling with the idea of inflatable costumes,
I'm coming up with more #cosplay plans.
....devious plans

Printing the cleaned up stencils at a size of 250%. Check out the length of that nose.
I'm cutting it super closer with this project. I'm a bit worried I won't make it for new york comic con.

I have a handful of important projects. Some of which are time, sensitive.
But sometimes you have to indulge in silly ideas. Combining random, body parts from old resin castings to create Angry-Businessman-Gumba

Crazy #cosplay update:
Moving to the long & tedious process of CAREFULLY cutting out all the patterns.
Moving slowly, cutting a handful of sheets & then scanning them to my computer.
I'll do digital cleanup, then resize them maybe 2 to 3 times bigger for the sewing patterns.

Status update: covering the"sculpture" in tape to start making the pattern templates. #cosplay #monster #ghostbusters #art

Woooooooooo!
Some adjustments needed, but in the end, a complete success.

Mold B, part 1, printed.

The smaller of the two molds I've 3d modeled in @sketchupofficial.bsky.social This one has all the cool scifi tools. I'm so happy with how clean it printed.

Creepy monster ideas.

The 1st sandwich mold is done.
It was quite tedious to get everything to lineup, & the hinges are always a pain to figure out. But when it's all finished it look so clean. :D

That's 1 down & 1 to go. Then I can continue the physical clay #sculpture around these 2 pieces.

Oh no, it's getting worse.
My #dice bag is officially at its absolute limit. But I couldn't say no to these cute rubber ducky dice, or these chaotic bouncy dice. #DnD

God Damn it #YouTube . Didn't we already have this talk?
Stop being a greedy FUK and pay attention to who's buying your ad space, instead of harassing your content creators.

Have you ever bought a toy and realized, by its very nature, it was incomplete?
I finally picked up this #Blackarachnia at a recent convention. #beastwars #transformers

To make an inflatable #cosplay, you need a sewing template.
But to get that, you need to sculpt out the shape.
1st I tried paper-craft (template found online)
Then I added foam to bulk it out
Then I added paper mache
And finally, plastic bandages.
He's slowly taking shape
