This is the second shot at doing a dtd. The first one wasn’t done as well and warped/stretched when I had to be cut out quickly due to overheating, so it was shit trying to pull a pattern from it. This one is much better (although I am disturbed at how much my legs hyperflex!).…

More work on the feetsies! I carved out the toe shapes using the dremel and sanded smooth, before using my gas stove to heat seal the foam again. Claws were made from apoxie sculpt, sanded, and glued into the toes. Hot glue is along the toe bottoms as an extra safeguard against toe tears, and…

Made up the pattern and cut the foam feathers for the tail, shapes based on a raven’s tail. I also carved the pygostyle nub which the feathers will be inset into and the nub will be covered in fur. Next up is sculpting the feathers!

Made some donut fabric weights for my future SIL, then decided to make myself a large set too.
