A windstones phoenix painted with reference to a black rooster. Completed using multiple atelier acrylic and folk art colour shift paint washes.

Most makers I’ve seen get a nice edge by rolling the fur under whilst they are gluing down. I’m a clutz so I decided to pre-roll all sides that would need it (eyes, nose, jaw) using a simple whip stitch. I also decided to roll the bottom edge of the hood to get a nice…

Because of the glue/knots in the wig, I had to install the zipper by hand. The rip stop zipper backing I was able to pass through the sewing machine, but everything else was secured down with a back stitch. This took aaaaallll day and I am exhausted 😩

These figures were all painted over the Christmas/New Years period and I’ve just got around to getting good photos. All were painted using atelier acrylic paints and pearl ex pigments. – scugog and sal by #homemadehorrors – faffnuff by #missmonster – foo puppy by #windstoneseditions

It is done! I finally have a proper ref sheet for K’ramyte. I am so, so proud of this. Created in #procreate, ~65 hours total work. Brushes by procreate, #crowartist, #line_bienkamp_draws. Text is Inkwell, added in CS6. K’ramyte is my own character. Do not use.
