Thank goodness! I took the day to redo the montral and front lekku for a nice clean line. It’s worked which is nice 🙂 I was thinking about taking a break from the costume because of them but I think it’s going to work out. But yay. It’s also inspiring me to work on other…

Stalled progress
My Ahsoka lekku did not cure as well as needed. So I’m going to see if I can tidy the belt template and start tooling leather.
It took all day
But I am nearly back to where I was. I decided that I was too annoyed by the short back lekku to be happy. Side track to making a new stand for sculpting and I now have wiggly lekku- one attached two on the floor. And so much mess. So much. But…
time to latex
I had a good start yesterday. Having experiemtned with many tools now I will be able to do a poper tutorial on making best use of latex under different circumstances. I’ve used filler, paints, brushes of all kinds, and now it’s finally paying off. My lekku are looking good and my montral can be trimmed…
Ahsoka lekku patterning
I’ve done this before, so thought I’d capture it for posterity 😉 I printed the concept art at full scale. What is helpful with these is the flat back. SO we can use the profile as the very first piece to cut.  This is then taped perpendicularly to card that will form the back….
Ahsoka plans
This is where I left her Montral. The lekku are the next on the agenda. Â I have a cunning plan, but I have managed to move and misplace or actually corretly store so many costume elements this year that I am not sure where all my lekku making materials are. Sadly probably no pictures…
piecesofnever: neimhaille: So I am happy with my tats, to the point I’m going to create another three sheets of the connecting pieces I avoided so as to make it easier. So the side front belly and back of arms will get their coverage. They are mostly my work. The specific idiosyncracities of line width…
They are red! First flat brush then airbrush. I am so getting another at some stage with the ability to hold more paint but wow, such a difference! Luckily the can is twice as long lasting as last time as I was able to paint a fair bit and there is still heaps of propellent….
Well, blech..
From too damp to too warm I let the workroom get too warm so I’ll need to do a bit more tidying of the lekku. I really wanted them done before Hamilton armageddon but hey. I copied the lekku patterns to paper and then again to more paper to be able to print them off…
