    If you ever try something like this again, try looking at the sculptable foam. I know cosplayers like kamui cosplay have used it before. You would probably be able to skip the silicon completely

    • @claritey
      @claritey Před rokem +104

      The only problem with sculptable foam is that it isn't very flexible so it would only work in areas where there isn't a lot of movement. Sculptable foam had some awesome uses though, I used it to cover my prosthetic leg to give it a more realistic shape.

    Oh my gosh- thanks to you I know if I ever wanted to make anything with silicone, I'd research it to the ends of the earth before I began! I didn't even know there are like a zillion different kinds - but of course there are! You live, you learn hehe I'm Sure the other mould would be usable for something - like a bag, or a dress, or head something ohh or arm band etc! Xxxx So much work, but each thing you do you get better at it and have more knowledge for the next thing! That's so interesting the painting the layers of silicone on to make the mould - it worked super well!!! I was thinking that if you laid it flat to do that it wouldn't work but it's amazing! And ingenuous, INGENIOUS with the attaching it on to the tights! I never would have thought of that in a million years! I wouldn't have thought tights would be strong enough ! It looks SO GOOD 💖💗💕🐙🐙
    I Actually love the peach/red octopus, the tips of different colour give the illusion of movement and grip and that it's gripping on and holding on and wrapping itself around your leg, and pulling you towards itself!!!! The purple is super cute too- now you can have a choice for dress up or cosplay purposes which you want to wear based on the colour!!!! Love xxxxx

  • @dzud803
    @dzud803 Před rokem +3

    if you ever wanna sculpt again for a project, I heavily suggest Milliput! It's a type of clay that, once it hardens, it'll be rock hard! You'll get two tubes of it, you have to mix these two different clays of Milliput together, two equal sized blobs, once they are molded together they should be one color instead of two colors, no streaks, spots, etc, then you can start using it! It's best for smaller objects though as once they're molded together it'll start hardening, it hardens in three to four hours, highly suggest this stuff, I use it a lot and it's really nice!

    Item idea:
    Shoes of the deep:
    While the octopus is part of the shoe you have a swim speed of 15ft and can breathe underwater
    or
    As an action you can detach the octopi from both shoes, they become familiars for one hour. If they die while not attached they are teleported back to the shoe and cannot be re-used until you finish a long rest
