Needle felting: bandom version

[kyaa_kawaii]

 In February I picked up needle felting again, something I used to do when I was a lot younger but forgot about when I started doing ceramics and pottery in art school. (God, I love clay. Give me some clay and an oven and I'll be happy for a while.) So I started felting again, got new wool, and then I thought, I should do something fun! What would

oh my god oh my god oh my god i am CRYING with JOY and AMAZEMENT his little SCARF AND MIKEY'S UNICORN NOTEBOOK AND HIS HILARIOUS GIGANTIC ROSARY and his FACE, oh my god, i am insane with covetous glee right now, i don't even know what to do with myself *_____________*

Heeee, I'm really glad you like him! I was worried you'd think I had messed him up too much or something. Like, the Gerard you had in your head when you wrote the Unholyverse. But I loved making him and I am proud of him so I'm really glad he made you insane with covetous glee. :D

bexless pointed me here, but I LOVE ANGEL FRANK SO MUCH! His FACE! His TATTOOS! *flail*

:D I'm so happy you like him! He's absolutely one of my favorites and even though his tattoos were hell to make, I'm glad I managed to do them at least.

Oh wow, those are really really cool! And so tiny and pretty and the attention to detail is amazing. Priest!Gerard's scarf and rosary! ♥ ♥ ♥

And how you manage to make Frank look like himself is incredible to me.

Thank you! The detail work is one of my favorite things about needle felting. ♥♥♥

Haha, I think it's mostly the jaw. And maybe the eyebrows? Idk. I just know that the jaw took me almost as much time to make as his whole head. Anyway, I'm really happy to hear you think he looks like himself!

oh wow! Those are so cool and amazing! How long did each take?!

[kyaa_kawaii]

Thank you! I worked on Gerard for maybe two, three days. In total he took about 14-16 hours to make. Frank took me about five whole days to make, but he was a WIP for almost two months.

Wow! These are so awesome! I had to try needle felting in uni and I have NO IDEA how you created those masterpieces from it! WELL DONE! :)

Haha thank you! I know it sounds lame but really, it's all about practicing. And you need to be patient. And willing to spend 5 hours working on one head. ;;

[slashxyouxup]

That's probably what I'm lacking then, haha. But really, these are just amazing! :) You have some serious talent!

[kyaa_kawaii]

Yeah, probably. :3 It's also important that you like it, considering the amount of hours you spend on doing it. Aw, thanks again! That's so nice of you to say!
