If you’re new here…Welcome!
Those that have been here a while should know by now that mixing mediums is what I do!
And this Falkor custom is no different! I want this to look as legit as possible, so I’m pulling out ALL my chaos for him.
Started with his nostrils and now to his eyelids! Because lets be honest, they MAKE his face!
Falkors future owner had a choice to make, and decided on the top color for his eyes…We both agreed that though his eyes are brown in the movie, these would be so much better and maaaaaannnn are they!
Shoutout to Darkside Eyes for these gorgeously painted eyes. Grab yours from her here: https://darksidecrochet.bigcartel.com/
I’ve been using Darkside’s eyes for several years now, and always save them for the most perfect projects!
Seriously though…How absolutely incredible does this look!
I swear I blow my own mind sometimes and what I’m able to do and create.
Getting and learning how to use my printer and create my own 3D models has been a literal GAME CHANGER for my craft!
While I may use 3D printing to take my work outside the box and to the next level, many have told me that it’s “not crochet” anymore, when YES IN FACT IT IS!
Just because I’m using printed pieces to bring life to my work, doesn’t make it any less crocheted. It’s all in the DETAILS which is exactly what my printed pieces are…Details. They are NO DIFFERENT than using safety eyes and the like!
Just look at that face! Insane how two little printed pieces bring so much life to this piece.
I am so beyond excited to continue working on him. However I’m also incredibly nervous to keep going 🫣 There’s more detail work to be done to just his head alone. But first I need to get his ears done!
Then…then comes the endless brushing, and brushing, annnnnd brushing some more. Wish my luck I don’t screw it up! I want his head finished and good before I even begin to work on his body. Because if I do someone mess it up, it’ll be far easier to redo the head than it would be to restart him as a whole entirely.
