Hat Work II

Hat is pretty much done. I might go back and add the gold detailing someday.... but for now, I'm not going to bother with them. It looks nice, to me, as is. I did wind up adding some detailing trim on the bottom. The black with black hair seemed to have this weird 'void' effect.  on my eyes.

Flintlock Gun V

One of the guns is finished!
 I'll have to take some photos of Hrist with it. Sadly I really need to get her some 'grippy' hands. sword holding hands don't work to well with these haha. Or borrow some of Poofie's tacky tack stuff.
Now I just need some more sealer and I can finish up the other gun!

Hat Work I

Not sure what happened to my first photo before I put the back flap on. Looked like Hrist was a soilder/helmet thing going on. Was most amusing for me to look at.

Hat work is going well... or was. I don't even care how straight those stitches are right now I was barely able to cram that thing in my sewing machine. I might rip them out later and hand stitch..... probably not, but I might. Working on stuff that's 5inches in diameter with my big ol'hands sure sucks... I might skip out on the 3D design for the forward piece. I'll see. maybe after a break, I can always go back. Wish I knew for sure though cause a red stipe has to go vertical if I do use it... it's be easier to sew that in now vs later.... hmmm :X

Flintlock Gun IV

Lots of work on this gun! Gotta put the double barrel one on hold for a bit, only have enough sealer for one gun atm and my sealers pretty $$$ that I use.
Been mixing up my own paints to get the color I want. The brown got rubbed right off after this photo was taken. Ironically the gun will have a lot of white coloring to it vs the usual 'black'

Flintlock Gun III

 Guns have arrived! Lot of prep work on these to do.
Still need to decide on a paint scheme for them too. X_X Got 3 ideas in mind haha. Ah well. I'll get around to deciding eventually.

Hrist's Coat XI

Phew, the coat project that keeps on going!

 Lots of work! Sewing in the sleeves gold has so far been the most annoying thing I've done yet. I had to fish around for the holes in a very small cuff that I can stuff one and a half fingers up haha. Real cramped work space = Not fun. But it had to have been done, and it was! And hour later of course... and now I just have one left!
Slowly going together. Can't wait to put it on Hrist. If all goes well I might get my gun shipment tomorrow in the mail. If not, Saturday is looking to be the day for that. Still nervous about the scaling on them.... X_X If not I'll have to resize and re-order haha.
