#titania

usayoshiI thought they’re not supposed to get wet is she ok ?? 

She’s fine, you definitely don’t want to keep them wet and you want to make sure that their elastic is completely dry before you re-string them so they don’t mold.

What I did was, do a bunch of research to make sure the chlorine wasn’t going to damage the resin itself straight away, then as soon as we were done taking photos, I rinsed her off at the pool, wrapped her up in a towel, took her home and unstrung her, washed her thoroughly with a really mild dish soap and rinsed her again really well and put her on a towel to dry. I also washed and rinsed her elastic and hooks, dried the hooks off to make sure they didn’t rust and left everything to dry. Her wig probably suffered the worst of anything, but it’s okay as well, just needs a bit of wig spray

I think it was at least a month before I was confident her elastic was fully dry (it’s thick elastic) and then with the help of my friends, we got her restrung (it was a process, she has a lot of parts and is strung tight)

Her face-up does need to be re-done, because I use a water based sealant so the sealant broke down a little in all the water and I personally wouldn’t do it repeatedly, but it was also a lot of fun and a great chance to use my water proof camera.

Got my new Space Child pins in, these were part of a commission so I only have a few that I’m personally selling. Here is a complete set of the pins I’ve released so far. I love making these. I currently have the Titania at the bottom still available in my store:

These are so much fun to make, thanks for your support!

I started reading the official Iron King comic adaptation and it made me so angry I spontaneously decided to make my own version. I’ve calmed down since, but here are some character designs.

Explanations:

• I know the changeling is supposed to look just like Ethan, but I still want him to have a nightmare face sometimes. Also, blank eyes as an easy visual shorthand to show who is who.
• Ash has a blue earring to give some color to his very black-and-white design and also tie him in with the Unseelie Court (see also: Mab’s lipstick).
• Machina’s black roots were a coloring mistake, but I like the effect so I’m keeping it.
• I know Machina’s eyes are described as slanted, but since I’ve already used that eye shape a lot for the other fae gentry, I changed it. In my opinion he has a certain droopy-eyed energy anyway.
• Titania’s hair should probably be longer but the curly updo just suits her so well. I like the period drama, princess-like look of it. Also, curly Titania vs. straight-haired Mab for the Contrast™️.
