The God Of The Moon // The God Of The Sun

Made this for an event I’m planning on my Minecraft server! The idea is that every participant builds an arena in their base so every fight happens in a different part of the server. The arenas are going to be unique as people are encouraged to go wild with them. I know one participant is planning to build a maze arena! I’m excited for that one lol

This piece was a lot of fun because it was the first time I enjoyed making something in a while! Kinda went with a comic book look for it and I’m happy with it

Drew a Legiana on the dorm whiteboard today!

Reference under the break!

Sculpting process is under the break!

I made this during winter break using what I learned from making the Toothless sculpture. I used polymer clay this time and didn’t make it solid clay, which really helps the clay not crack.

I did not end up using the armature pictured above because the proportions were off and it was unbalanced.

I finished the details and put it in the oven along with her shield and rosary beads. In hindsight, I should have baked the base clay on and then added the details to that to bake again so I didn’t have to worry about ruining my work. Next time!

I made the beads hoping I could make the rosary work, but I didn’t have the right tools. Sent the beads to my friend to put holes in. I hope to finish that after the semester is over.

Once baked, I started painting. I got a new, thin brush just for this lol. I’m super happy with how I painted this whole thing, but oh my goodness I am so proud of that shield!

I also intended on the fire being translucent as I got translucent polymer clay for it, but not only was it crumbly and very hard to work with, it’s not even translucent!! At least not noticeably. Alas 😔

The shield is fully removable so I can swap out Okami’s weapons. Again, hoping to get the rosary to work, but I would also love to make one of the swords!

And that’s how I made an Okami sculpture! I wanna do a photo shoot with her now that it’s spring and there are flowers growing outside

Edit: I forgot to mention that I actually got sculpting tools for this too (great time for my combination Christmas and birthday gifts) so the details were much easier to make.

For Toothless, I used my tiny screwdriver I use for my clarinet screws and a mechanical pencil to get the details. It… worked I guess? Still not great lmao

Double life doodles

I’m so normal about her

shoutout to titan luz.... gotta b one of my favorite genders

In total this took an embarrassing amount of time I will not disclose, but I am proud of this! The clothing folds and the shading were separate nightmares that I had to conquer, but I think it turned out nicely!

Saint Pearl! This design is truly amazing I’m so glad I finally got to draw it digitally lol

wikipedia no longer being anywhere near the top of search results when looking up anything feels eviscerating

Hey i’m a fashion design student so i have tons and tons of pdfs and docs with basic sewing techniques, pattern how-tos, and resources for fabric and trims. I’ve compiled it all into a shareable folder for anyone who wants to look into sewing and making their own clothing. I’ll be adding to this folder whenever i come across new resources
