Oh no.. not boxes again...  LOL Thats a lot of work with all those tiny buttons and domes... eeeek the eye strain and fiddly fingers stuff... Speaking of.. does anyone know if you can get tiny (belt) buckles.. to go with 1/6th scale.. hoping I don't have to make one if they are available, I only really need one if poss. Well not much from me today, I had a few other things to sort out... in between I continue to smudge and gouge at the face and eyes of my sculpt... I keep saying I will put it aside until I get further on with the pose... but noooooo.... I can't leave well enough alone... hehe.. |

Not laughing just glad its not me ;D if I wasn't working I'd give you a hand -too bad  it was a rough day of learning so not easy breeze here Hope you get your boxes ready in no time Donna maybe tomorrow you'll feel like making round eyes or else hope you are satisfied as is (eyes are your friend -well so I keep telling myself) Jules when you say make and take - do you mean the people buy what you make |

aaah excellent you can buy buckles.. thanks Blue.. yay don't have to figure out how to make buckles... Fantail...Hope you have a nice restful evening after your hectic day... heeee "eyes are my friend" The eyes will have to be good enough... they are looking better, not perfect.. but better, and I'm stopping for awhile, while the goings good..  Trouble is the books I have studied and the tutorials I have watched.. the teachers get the faces 'like that' first time, they push the tool here and walaah the perfect mouth, and the perfect nose and so on.... doesn't happen like that for me...  Blue if you need a hand with cotton snipping-button stitching-boxes sourcing... yell out. I can spare a coupla' hours.. |

each eye must be pushed pulled poked squished fixed refixed and reset at least 800 times. anyone that does it in one hit is either BSing or just plain superhuman .... or their name is Mark Denis just poke it ever so gently once and its done........yer right what polymer planet are they really on ? gotta run. am on a mercy dash............ off to save the wizard |

Fantail - the make and bake means each stall has to have some mini craft activity that people can do and take home.
This year I only have a table, so I wont be offering a make n take

My break is only half an hour and can sometimes be ramdom as I never know when the real workload will hit, besides if a day with you and Donna isn't enough then half an hour will be just a wink
When things have settled and I finally have my sculpting and eyes made I'm sure we can arrange for a get together some weekend.
I tried to sculpt to day but my clay is a bit soft
Hope you all have a productive day tomorrow too

Hi all... Bll, your poor wee man, all spotty for his big 5th birthday.. I cant believe it was a year ago we saw his last fabulous b'day cake... Oh no, Blls in line for finger drop-off. blue I think you need to kick that rabbit hole again soon... Anubis is toooo quiet.. Lindi I cant believe you've got through another three cuties already... (geez I've only squished one face around).. they are gorgeous as usual.. I like the hair too. Hiya Jules.. hope you're going well with your armature and sorting for the show.. fantail.. I really missed you yesterday as well... I'm very happy you have your job now and you're settling in well.... but it would have been great to see you. We'll definitely have to sort out a weekend catch-up soon. Blue.. I'll be seeing you soon.. Have a great one everybody... |

Donna the older boy Ethan is very much an angel, he is just so well behaved and such a good boy But little Dylan... he is a very active and curious little boy, and as much as I love his character he is going to be a handful! Lindi all your new little girl look very sweet. The viscose hair looks great. I have some of this but I've never got the hang of using it Bll that is such a shame about your son getting the spots on his birthday But its still great that he is going to get past them In America they have Pox Parties, so its probably still a good time to have the party so parents can expose their kids if they haven't had them already And the Batman cake sounds great, my son would absolutely love that! |

Thanks, but not going well (I'm SUCH an amateur - big mouth small teeth, always biting off more than I can chew!). the pox party is good in theory, probably not as an ambush. SIL not bringing the cousins even though they already had CP, apparently there's a chance you CAN get again. 2 of his friends have just had, one hasn't. I can see it now: "Hi, welcome to the party! BTW, want chicken pox?" oh dear, never mind. |

LOL I can see the "Surprise!!" now
From what I have read if you only get a small dose of the Pox you can sometimes get it again
