Progress Journal
 |
Makeup test (Posted 9th March 2014) Grimas paint, dark green eyeliner for countouring, black and grey eyeliners for details, matt green eyeshadow for highlights and faux earplugs! :') Dried pretty nicely so not sure if I need powder to set it or not! |
 |
Shoulder armour (Posted 9th March 2014) Had to strip off the paint as it wasn't drying and I worried about the material being ruined. Repainted it with matt emulsion and it seems to have done the trick! Will add details on again once the base layer finishes drying. |
 |
Wings detail (Posted 8th March 2014) Added some more tones and highlighted the veins running along the wings in yellow-greens, which makes them look better when the light does shine through them too and makes them look more natural. |
 |
Gloves wip 2 (Posted 6th March 2014) Finished gloves with worbla claw tips. Will be painted and although they sit well on my fingertips, I'll add a bit of glue to keep them secure! |
 |
Painting the wings (Posted 5th March 2014) Coated the plastic and latex in special spray paint and then painted on top in various shades of green, starting to pick out the details of the 'veins' and ridges and claws. :) [EDIT: The spray paint didn't work on the latex, despite being advised it would be fine. OTL] |
|
Gloves base (Posted 4th March 2014) The base of the gloves! The point meets up with the pattern of the sleeves. Tomorrow I'll be making polymorph or latex claw/fingertips before I start painting everything. c: |
 |
Shoulder armour (Posted 28th February 2014) Three layers of latex that make up Hulkling's shoulder armour. Yet to be finished painting but this gives an idea of the pattern and shape/flexibility of them. They're sewn together and will be attached to the muscle suit by velcro and disguise the wing harness! :) |
 |
Wing details (Posted 24th February 2014) Using 3D paint and latex to add in the details and emphasise where the bone structure is inside. :) |
 |
Wings base (Posted 23rd February 2014) Plastic over wire with latex bone/claws at the top. Going to put more plastic and 3D over the top before painting! :) |
 |
Wings frame done! (Posted 21st February 2014) So much bigger than I expected, but they hold the weight of the plastic! \o/ |
 |
Gloves wip (Posted 20th February 2014) Gloves mostly sewn up! They overlap with the lines/folds I put into the sleeves and I'm going to make some polymorph/latex/foam claws of some description to go over the first two knuckles. :) |
 |
Wings wip again (Posted 20th February 2014) This is the relaxed position I was on about. With the skin over them, they curve in and behave more naturally, but this gives you an idea! :D |
 |
Wings wip (Posted 20th February 2014) See below for more details! |
 |
Wing harness and wire work (Posted 20th February 2014) Harness and base shape of the wings done! Got some shaping and tidying up to do tomorrow before I put on the final bits of wire and add the 'skin'. The width of these at full size will be a little longer than my arm span and they'll also fold back behind me in a more relaxed position too. :) The base of the harness is a plastic hinge so they can be flapped and they on elastic fastenings which hide beneath Teddy's shirt and the shoulder armour (which I've yet to finish!) They're as big as I can get away with for a con/without them drooping really! |
 |
Arms base 2 (Posted 10th February 2014) Another of the arms base! |
 |
Arms base (Posted 10th February 2014) Seams fixed in place with glorious wonder web! Going to put glue, paint and plastic/latex over the top to help make them more realistic and less plush looking! :) |
 |
Starting the arms! (Posted 9th February 2014) Slowly creating the folds in the sleeves/arms for green Hulkling! I'm folding the fabric to make the shapes and underneath will be a sort of muscle suit style padding to build shape. I'll be painting all the fabric up to make it realistic. I'll also be adding on polymorph for the shoulder armour pieces and gloves with polymorph claws that go up to my forearms but will still be detachable. :] Later on I'll be doing some latex wings and experimenting with makeup/face paint too! :D |
 |
wippity wip! (Posted 29th June 2013) See I am going to get it done in time! XD It's a pretty basic job. Just getting the zip in at the side and sewing down the folds on the back of the knees. The magenta material feels lovely but it's a ***** to sew. OTL |
|
Everything purchased \o/ (Posted 14th June 2013) What it says in the title. Wig on its way, fabric and zips purchased, wings in progress (that'll be chibi ones this time around though! ;p). WIP photos soon. |
