ok please note i had no idea what i was doing for any of this and theres probably a much better way to construct a base BUT this is what…. ended up happening
the vague shape of it is getting there … . .
needs more bands
MORE BANDS
becoming a flat onion
the top is removed so i can get inside of it
… and then a band of cardboard is placed on the inside to support it ( its standing !! )
the bands are cut on the places where they jut out and then overlapped and taped, so the shape is smoother but its STILL an onion
so i cut the whole damn thing in half and added a big band of cardboard in the middle to lengthen it out. the Orb is being born
its rounded out a little bit more on the sides and then the mouth is cut out
FABRIC
F A B R I C ( this is the point in the game where my gluegun stopped working, and so everything from this point on is glued by me heating the sticks over a candle flame. nice
the seams on the fabric are cut and glued into place ( and hand stitched in a lotta places and a lot of em look, Really bad in the back h hah HA ) and the teeth ( fleece, cardboard to keep em flat, and a little bit of stuffing ) are thrown in the mouth
tongue cuttin
handstitched the seams on the tongue, got the base for it ready and the eyes cut out
the EYES ( cardboard with white on one side, black on the other, and a little thin strip of black going along the edge ) ( also the pupils arent glued down yet hey )
EYES
TONGUE
THERE THEY ARE
tulle time, so much goddamn tulle
SO much of it just everywhere on the back its a mess, the back looks like an awful grape but it doesnt matter its the BACK
heres the Looking Hole ( theres black mesh netting over the top ) – the little pink eye details are also in
and then here it is, this Mess ( tights and boots both are probably gonna change but Oh Well ) i dont know what the tongue was doing so crooked in these shots but its TOO LATE
Welcome to the 2018 Reigisa Creative Works Exchange!
This year, to celebrate our boys, @iwatobies will be hosting a creative works exchange from December 14th to 24th.
What is the exchange?
Basically, it’s a Secret Santa except everyone gives to everyone and everyone receives, so the pressure of creating the right gift for a specific person is removed. Every post that gets tagged with #reigisaexchange will be reblogged here, so anything and everything that people want to give as a gift to the fandom at large will be shared and celebrated!
What to make?
Absolutely anything. Art, fics, gifs, AMVs, interpretive dances to the sound of iced tea being served—everything is welcome. HOWEVER, we will also collect prompts and ideas from our followers, so if anyone wants some guidance on what to make, there’s something to choose from. We kickstart on Rei’s birthday so maybe some content for the best butterfly is in order?
Kyra, why are you starting talking about this in September?
Because making stuff takes a long time so I want everyone to have lots and lots of time so there’s no rush and no pressure!
On October 5th, we will publish a full list of prompts and suggestions for creators, and then wait to see what everyone comes up with!!
The more people who participate—by suggesting prompts, by promoting this post, by making wonderful art/fics/interpretive dances—the more of a success this event will be! And it doesn’t matter if you don’t think your interpretive dancing is the best out there because every creator has something unique to share! So please consider marking your calendars and giving a little something to the Reigisa fandom, because I, for one, am super excited to see it!
I got pretty fed up with looking for words to replace said because they weren’t sorted in a way I could easily use/find them for the right time. So I did some myself.
