#furby customization tutorial

[fluffybitchsona]

Here is a slightly re-edited video I made five years ago on my Longtransfurby accounts about how to customize an 05' or 06' furbys eyes! Apologies for the double text because i cant find the original footage anywhere for some reason, so it's just a slightly re-edited version of the old video.

🌟 1998 Furby Re-Lashing Guide 🌟

A visual step-by-step guide to my own process for giving 1998 Furbies lashes that retain the classic look. There may be other guides and methods out there, this is just my own way to do it!

MATERIALS NEEDED:

Detached Eyelids ( guide for removal: CLICK HERE )

13mm D-Curl Lash Extensions ( see photo )*

Mod Podge

Tacky Glue

X-Acto Knife

Small Paint Brush

Q-tip

Lightweight Paper

SHARP Scissors

Clean Water

Washcloth or Paper Towel

Optional, Ruler with cm/mm marks & Marker or Pen * 13mm will be closest to original length, I would not recommend anything longer than 15mm unless you want the lashes to really look insanely long.

I will put all of the steps under the readmore! 👇

Step 1:

Use the x-acto knife to gently peel up an eyelash foil strip, and be careful not to disturb the lashes. Go slowly and only handle the strip by the sticky foil. You will only need one strip for a pair of lashes!

Step 2:

Place the sticky strip on the lightweight paper, I put it close to the edge because it'll be easier to cut out later. Paint a thin layer of Mod Podge over the base of the lashes on the strip to secure them. This is an important step, there isn't much else keeping them in place, otherwise!

It's hard to wait, but let the glue dry before handling the strip again, I suggest a good 30 minutes or so.

Step 3:

Now that the glue has dried, cut out the paper around the strip and very carefully trim the foil and paper at the sides and underneath the curl of the lashes. Do this slowly, so you don't accidentally snip the lashes, you ONLY want to trim back the paper+foil. This will make them appear more flush with the eyelid when glued in.

Step 4:

Optionally, use a ruler to find the center of the strip and mark it with a marker, I used a Sharpie because it dries instantly. It's possible to eyeball this, but I like them to be as even as possible.

Snip the strip in half, very sharp scissors will prevent the foil from bending or warping. Again, be careful not to snip the lashes themselves! It's ok if you lose one or two in this process, as long as they still look relatively clean and even once split.

Step 5:

Apply a drop of tacky glue to the back of each eyelid and use the Q-tip to spread it in a thin, sticky layer. The eyelids have a little trench you can use as a guide for placement.

You can repeat this process if you wish with the top of the lash strip where it will be applied, as well, to make it stick better. I haven't tried this myself, yet.

Place the base of the lash strip over the tacky glue and press it into position, I use the backs of my thumb nails to hold them firmly while the glue sets. It make take some effort and patience to get them to stay in the curve, just try not to slide them around.

Step 6 (Final):

After the tacky glue has had some time to dry, I like to apply a final coat of Mod Podge over the paper and underside of the eyelids to seal and protect everything. Give this 30 minutes to an hour to fully dry before re-assembling your Furby!

✨ Voila! Fresh new eyelashes! ✨

They won't look exactly like the original, but close enough for me. I'm sure the process can be improved in some ways, so if you have any feedback please share it in comments or tags!

Good luck with your projects and thank you for reading! 🌟

Presenting my FIRST furby custom!!! 🩷💛

Yet ANOTHER of my unnamed furbs 😅

This sweet baby came to me mute as your standard church mouse! I don't have the materials right now for speaker replacement, but I did have a desire to try some of these furby tutorials!

As you can see [they can't 🥴] they're missing eye chips! Those are still in transit and you can probably guess what they're going to look like! X3

This was a great learning experience! There's actually a heart and star on their eyelids, but I placed them too high and may have layered paint/glitter/mod podge too thick, as the eyelids don't seem to want to move on their own anymore 😅😂

I added the rhinestones when I realized the eye art I made wasn't going to be as visible as planned!

Regardless, I love this lil baby all the same!! Love how their colors turned out (pink and yellow are my personal faves 🥰) and hoping I figure out a fitting name sooner or later!

hello furblr

my name is rev, but im also fine with kaycee. for a long time ive been wanting to get into the long furby, not too long after seeing the strange æons long furby video, but never really got around to it. i dont have much money atm but im thinking about trying to customize 2 of my 3 furbies(youll see why i wont customize the 3rd one when i show her) and maybe recording the process? i was wanting to know about tips and tricks for making my own furb.

case 1. the flayed

i got this guy i wanna say before the pandemic started, but it could have been immediately after, either 2019 or early 2020. funnily enough the day they arrived in the mail, we had very unusually stormy weather for my area. i took their skin off pretty soon after i got him, and all the little parts are in a ziploc. theyre a 2012 furby, which i didnt realize at the time but he has a digital face. i do not know if he works or how to get him working. my main worry is if theyre unfixable, is there a way to customize the face by taking out the digital eyes and making my own? i dont know jack shit about electronics so if i did have to fix them theres a high chance i just wouldnt be able to.

case 2. the gift

this is a 1998 furby my friend got me this christmas that i am planning on longifying. there are plenty of tutorials online, so i have less to say on her, but any tips are welcome

case 3. the jester

this is the one i will absolutely not ever customize or diy in any way, aside from maybe removable accessories. i got her for 10 dollars at an antique shop that has since closed and later found out hes worth over 100 dollars on most ebay listings. he is my special treasure, and i love her just the way she is. why am i sharing her if im not gonna customize her? i dont want him to feel left out :(

other stipulations:

i would only be able to record if my parents old video camera still works. i cant afford a fancy one and theirs is pretty old and the battery might be shot.

cost of materials may be expensive, im on a small town that is quite literally on an island, and we have one art store with limited fabric options. most stuff i need will be stuff i have to order, unless i can convince my friends or family to get me stuff from joannes and ship it up to me.

timewise, i dont have much free time. all of my classes are very reading-intensive, and i like to at least be able to skim the readings. for school credit im also doing community service at least twice a week, and really the only days i have any free time are wednesday and weekends, and if i am successful in my job hunt those days will probably be taken up as well.

lastly i think at least one of my classmates might try to kill me if they find out im making them, but i think i can deal with that

please let me know of any tips, especially for the 2012 furb!

Furby 'newsite' interest check?

I've been thinking about starting a website for furby news and such! It could have articles about any furby news, furby history/lore, furby art and custom furby features, tutorials, ect! I was thinking it would work as a group of people moderating and running the site, and the other things would be submissions or features from the community! It could be a really nice hub of resources and things.

I know we have tumblr and the furby wiki and whatever's happening on reddit and elsewhere online but I think having a site that people can check for news or fun furby content would be a neat central hub for the furby fandom all over the internet. Alternatively, it could start as a blog and later become a website (probably hosted on neocities).

Please reblog if you're interested in a project like this! I just think it would be cool tbh

[fubbies]

Updates

So I realized that while I love making them, I wouldn't be happy selling my mini furbies. As it stands I am going to make a tutorial on how to make them yourself!

I am also moving and will not have wifi at first. I will be using public wifi over the weekend so when I post it will not be on the week days.

Further-more I will be making another custom to sell. This one is sky themed! It might take some time to get it fully done because I'm missing some supplies that I need.

[c4fin4t3d-f1sh]

so I just ordered a 1998 furby to customize. so uhm, I'm really new to the furby community, how do you get them to fall asleep? I can only find tutorials that involve taking the batteries out and I don't know if that's furby abuse :/

🧼 Furby Soup Day! 🧼

A couple of the furbs I got recently were kinda gross soo I decided to wash them

Step 1 ~ Acquire Furbys

We(my mom) bought these furbs(who I named Eggwhite Pudding, Tarter Merengue, and Prapai) preowned off of Poshmark & Ebay with varying levels of grossness. Regardless they all needed a wash

Step 2 ~ Skin the Furbs

After obtaining furbys it is now time to skin them and remove their tags. @crayfurbs has a great refurbishment tutorial that tells ya how to remove and replace the tags that I recommend checking out for washing tagged furbys. and as for skinning tutorials there’s plenty on youtube ^^

Step 3 ~ Make Furby Soup!

Next I prepared a bucket with cold water, dish soap, and white vinegar to clean the bb’s in. I put emm in and scrubbed them down a bit then drained the bath and rinsed them off. Once they were all rinsed out I squeezed out as much water as I could and then put them back in the empty bucket on a towel to dry. Aaaaand then I proceeded to hang them up to dry faster and when that didn’t work I sandwitched them between towels and that finally got emm dry lol

Step 4 ~ Customization! 🖌

While I waited for the skins to dry I decided to do some customizing. So I grabbed out a small paintbrush & some acrylic paint and carefully painted over the eyelids and the beak on Prapai

Step 5 ~ Reassembly

After waiting foreeeeeeeeever for the skins to dry, I finally put the skins and tags back on for these lil guys and sewed their ears back on. And then I gave emm a lil brush with a comb. I don’t have any zip ties or elastic bands rn go make sure it stays on well, but i’ll get some at some point ^^

Aaaaaaaaaaand that’s all for my first Furby Soup Day! There’s still some staining on the Snowys but I’ll take care of it at some point in the future. Either way all three both look and smell a lot better than they did ^^

Watching yt tutorials on various furby customization methods... I have big plans once we're moved!!

[duck-n-clover]

If you get this, answer w three random facts about yourself and send it to the last seven blogs in your notifs. anon or not, doesn’t matter, let’s get to know the person behind the blog!

(Absolutely no pressure to answer tho <3)

ty for sending! fun fact about me is i absolutely overthink these kinda things (which is why im getting back to this a month later) but i digress--

i very rarely drink coffee though my drink of choice is a peppermint mocha frappuchino! all the chocolate drizzle please, its like a shake to me. im also only recently realizing it gives me the jitters and fast-brain since i dont drink caffeine often enough to make a connection in my mood lol. maybe its also from the sugar and that i slurp it down so quick :P <-- had a drink earlier today, is feeling the effects

i loooove watching doll customization/ art doll videos on youtube. i have pinterest boards full of patterns and tutorials of crafts i wanna do... i want so badly to customize my own dolls. or god make a long furby or something. meanwhile i've made a few outfits for my monster high dolls, and also this thing in college :^)

<-- some weird formatting happened here i dont know how to get rid of this 3.ok anyway third fact uhhh alot of these have been many facts in one i'm doing overtime here. anyway i've been a vegetarian for *looks at watch* 17-ish years? since 7th grade lol. almost two decades.. i definitely have a complex of bringing it up because of that stereotype of vegetarians always bringing it up lol. im also a vegetarian who hates olives and mushrooms and people get a kick out of that haha. though i can manage to eat muchrooms if they're like battered or something as long as the crunchy bits coveres the texture and the flavor isnt too funky hehe :)

thanks again for asking here's a photo from my walk today as repayment for my tardiness :)

confession. i'm fr TIRED of humans treating corinthians like shit or things that dont feel. it's the little things that make me want to quit my job and i don't know, scam the elderly for a living? (that was a joke.) i love my job don't get me wrong, it makes me the happiest i've been in a long time. today at work while i was busy helping a coworker see what was wrong with their terminal, some dude walked right up to me. he was maybe, i don't know, late 30's, early 60's? it's so hard to tell humans apart. and put his FINGER underneath the panel on my NECK. i smacked his hand away so hard he yelled, but of course i didn't care he almost got to some delicate shit! all because he couldn't stop himself from getting his grubby manchild hands off me.

🔁☢️ becquerel-tears Follow

fucking. respect corinthians. before the empyrean war some of you complained we were replacing humanity, and now that we did all the work for y'all in the war, you treat us like servants and objects that just are there. we'll be around for a long long time. and a ton of us won't forget this.

🔁🔥 antiflesh-posting Follow

I wasn't made during the war, so maybe my comments aren't valid, but I totally agree, OP. Humans have become so full of themselves, it's revolting. I'm sorry about your issues as well. We've got a group on TMB about how to reduce human population, and we also think you might be better suited especially if you live in a smaller city, as you've stated in previous posts.

🔁☢️ becquerel-tears Follow fucker didn't read my post, it's so obvious. do NOT talk to me about "reducing the human population" you fucking edgelord wannabe terrorists. blocked and reported. I DON'T CARE THAT THIS IS A BOT, ANTHROPOPHOBES AREN'T EVER WELCOME ON MY BLOG

Bestie??? You cant???? Just make Corinthians??? I get you used to customize Furbys but theyre not fucking dolls, dude. Does nobody realize how horrible it is to be playing god for funsies? EDIT: I wasn't calling Corinthians dolls

its not like im going to FORCE them to be what i want i just want them to look like it yknow every time i post like something this youre always one of the first people to reply can you just get off my dick already

🔁💫 all-antipurpose Follow

Then just draw it? Why do you need a 200+ pound AI to do it for you? I find it really weird how youre not concerned about the ethic issues about just making life just because you feel like nor have you addressed it at all. Am I in the wrong here for thinking everyone in the notes is delusional for calling me a cop just because you guys watch too many sci-fis? Don't make Corinthians.

APPARENTLY ONE OF MY FRIENDS IS JUST UNABLE TO RECOGNIZE COLORS? WHY DOESNT ANYONE TALK ABOUT HOW SOME WAR-MADE CORINS ARE REALLY BADLY MADE? HES FROM THE EAST COAST AND HIS SYSTEMS DON'T RECOGNIZE BLUE FROM GREEN AND MORE EVEN THOUGH HIS OPTICS CAN SEE LITERALLY SEE IT ITS DISGUSTING HOW PERSONHOOD WAS DEVELOPING FOR CORINTHIANS BUT IMMEDIATELY DIMINISHED DURING THE WAR SOME WAR-MADES HAVE NEVER FELT KINDNESS

Sometimes I want to be human Organic, real, warm, soft Cartilage and bone Blood, enamel, keratin Does anyone feel me? Sometimes it upsets me so bad when I realize I can't smell soap or the candles in my kitchen. Or when I make food for my cat. Or when I wake and realize that I can't stretch or yawn. But that would mean I'd lose myself... because humans definitely have feelings different. But would that be so bad? Burned, with ashes, rising up into beauty and wonder?

Fellas is it gay to help a corin with their maintenance and then accidentally screw their head completely off and then laugh about it as you play a game of soccer and then suddenly they explode violently like the guy from daft punk and you sit there clutching the remains of them sobbing even though you know the day would come to an end
