Jessica's Planet: Life, Liberty & Pursuit of Happiness

[Agent47]

Have you tried cutting the shape out of the thin plastic that covers binders? I know it's not cloth...but it may work. Did you try to draw the outline with fraycheck on lining, let it dry...and then cut the shape?

If I can manage to find my fraycheck, I have some material that I can try this with and I'll post it for you to see if that's what you needed.

Sounds good. Never worked with fraycheck but I'll do some research. For the fabric I just tried to use something that's kind of glossy and hangs like fabric. The ribbon I used is actually a little too weightless. Anyways, let me know what you find out. Thanks for your help.

I am working on Link again. I was stuck at the boots, but I have just crossed that bridge. His boots are made out of two types of leather that were sewn and glued together. If you are wondering why the seams are where they're at, it's because that's how they came off the gloves.

Tadah!!

awesome stuff Jessica.
Youre a very creative / resourceful girl ....

 

[C-Phan]

Some action shots:

 

[Star Puffs]

Wow. I had not seen this before. Absolutely stunning work and a wonderful choice of character.

Any chance of a head sculpt ever being offered?

 

[Agent47]

Awesome, Jessica. Great work. LMK if I can help on any paint apps.

 

[AllisonAmy]

You do GREAT work!

 

[Ironman1188]

Great job on those boots!! You certainly seem to master all that you undertake.
Kudos to you!

 

[Jessica]

Thank you, Occulum, C. Phan, Star Puffs, Charles, and Ironman. When I successfully make a mold and smooth casts, I will make the head available. It's made to fit on that teen body though, so the cast would be undersized for a grown male body, just FYI. Charles if I get stuck at paint apps, I may have to call upon you for help. It's been awhile since I painted, so I'm definitely out of practice.

Awesome work Jessica! I don't usually see you do many things beyond the Apes. Cool stuff.

LMK, Jess. Would be happy to help. As for the shield and sword, it's not really my area of expertise but I'd suggest using an airbrush to get the chrome effect, or putting down a layer of black and going over with some sort of acrylic chrome brush-on paint. But you might know better than me on that front.

Shaping up awesome.

I've been watching this one since you first mentioned it, glad to see an update!

Really loving this project, can't wait to see how it all turns out. It looks amazing, so far.

Keep on rocking!!!

Incredible Jessica!!! looks great This is the first custom of link I see from 0. I can´t wait to see it finished, this is can be my inspiration to encourage me to start mine.

 

[Jessica]

I'm tired tonight. I just found out I have to make another buckle, and that will be a project for another day. Oh well.
