Crafty Tuesday My Plans for 2016
Jan. 5th, 2016 08:45 amWell first off would be to finish the 2015 projects of which I have a few and then go onto my year long build to Dragon Con with a few other projects sprinked in.
Right now I have
Aquaman
Captain Hook from Once Upon a Time
The C project
Rebuilds of Holmes and Watson for the set for Farpoint
And mystery project #2
Depending on some information I get in the next week or so, I might have three puppets I need done before mid-July.
I have decided to do more female puppets this year. I did Missy, Zelena, and one other last year so I have more experience.
And yes there is a Doctor Strange puppet in the works. I just need to see better photos of the costume to do it. I may do a movie Mordo as well. I do so like what I have seen of the costumes.
I have another doll project I want to experiment with. I have an idea that I am still rolling around in my head. If I do it, it will be the first doll I have done since Peter’s stroke. I feel I need to get back to that art form.
Caroline and I have pinky sworn about two projects she wants to work on so those are in the mix. And she want to make more dragons for conventions and the like.
I might take up a drawing challenge just to work on my drawing so I can get from a negative to a bare positive. I think the only thing that is going to help me is practice and maybe another discussion with Bill Sienkiewicz who is the only person on the planet that could explain negative space and I almost understood it.
Writing I have plenty to do plus some ideas that I need to write up as well. Never thought that would be on the list but it is.
Caroline does want to cosplay Rey this year so that's up on the decks too. The costume is so simple and so complicated at the same time. It’s the staff that is going to drive me nuts.
Right now I have a pile of cut cloth and some heads formed out so that is where I am starting for this year. I’ll report back with what I have done next week.
I am grateful that I have so many creative options and people to consult.
