A month ago I experienced a spiritual awakening that resulted in a club penguin x ninjago crossover, that another post reminded me of
I haven't kept pet rats since I was a kid, but they still hold a very special place in my heart <3
how it feels driving manual for some reason
My return to dreamland comic I did for my first illustration class in college is back up! Stills looks decent and also I'm posting this around the time RTDL came out so happy b-day Return to dreamland!
You know when Fribble’s arm is out he’s at peak coziness
Probably my favorite photo of them lol. Happy Raturday everyone.
Part 3 of a felted penguin tutorial
Once you have the flippers in your selected mold, use the needle to stuff it in there (note: I used a hard surface to take the picture, but do NOT do it on a hard surface. It won’t tighten it, at least not well, and it might break your needle. Use foam underneath, or any other soft surface you don’t mind getting holes in).
Switch back and forth from either side to make sure both sides of the flipper is tightening the same.
Make sure to keep a bit of loose felt at the ends of the flippers for attaching them in the next step.
Next merge the flippers with the sides of the penguin. This step is pretty simple! This is where I usually place the flippers, but you can place them anywhere you want really.
Here’s what we have now :3
Faceless, but looking pretty neat!
Let’s fix its facelessness. Take a bit of orange felt (I didn’t take a picture of how much I cut… whoopsies!) and place it just above the neckline. This is where you can choose your penguin’s expression. I’m giving her just a regular smile, but it can be anything you want!
I know it looks weird, but it’ll look better soon I promise.
Next take a bit more of your orange felt and wad it up in the middle of the expression you just made. I tighten it there, but if you find it easier you can create its oval shape before putting it on.
Shorten it as much as you can, and try to keep it between the line of orange felt you placed there before!
We’re almost done, should be able to finish in the next part!
