When the sun goes down and the night is coming, the sky gets the most beautiful colors. I caught some of these colors and poured them into these "Dusk" dice.
These are still raw and need some sanding and inking.
Blep artist cup! The notch often comes when a piece's rim is wobbly or imperfect (like when I bump it by accident). It's perfect to hold a brush. Instead of balancing it like a goblin.
this was the pattern that got me into knitting sweaters, and the pattern that got me into knitting color work. it took years and several sweaters, shirts, and other color work projects to work my skills up to the point I felt comfortable with this, but for a while this was what was guiding my knitting journey. now that I'm on the other side, I do feel a bit lost. it's really fun having something that consumes you like this—I feel like I'm always chasing something that can be that light, that can answer questions about what to do next, that can give me a metric to measure against. until I find that again, I'll just be making what feels right in the moment
also, wearing this sweater feels like you're getting a big, warm hug from a tentacled beast, which I'm sure some of you freaks are into
Meet Shyrsirru! Aahhh I can't tell you how happy I am with how she has turned out, but here she is! She has a fully custom PVC articulated armature, 100% hand sewn, sculpted, painted, and fabricated by me. I'm really pleased with her, and I really hope you enjoy her too!
Shyrsirru measures 92cm from nose to tail tip, about 38cm from the ground to the top of her horns, and she also has a 72cm wingspan.
Thanks so much everyone for your support, I really can't do this without it!:)
Nobody knows the true colours of a changeling, for they can be everything they want to be. But in that splitsecond between forms, you may be able to catch a glimpse of something gray and fluid like. These are the "Changeling" dice and they still need sanding and inking.
