Ok, Iā€™ve heard good things about cosclay, but I didnā€™t know it came in glowing blue! :heart_eyes:

I felt like I was writing that myself.
So many supplies for random projects, and every time I want to make something, I buy more. :zany_face:

Ooooh Iā€™ve heard of cosclay before. I follow ā€œNorth of the Borderā€ on YouTube and Adam (owner of the channel) uses it fairly often. His videos are really fun to watch. Iā€™ll look for one where he uses cosclay and link it.

I do this because i donā€™t have a dedicated craft spot so i buy, i use, i put somewhereā€¦ then canā€™t find anything. So buy more.

Judging by the swap thread, I suspect a lot of people will be playing with cosclay soon :joy:.

Iā€™m looking forward to hearing how you like it and how it compares to other clays youā€™ve used!

I ordered a silcone mat & roller. I am so excited to experiment this weekend. If it doesnā€™t work out, it may break my heart. I have such high hopes for this to be fun.

Slip is kind of hard to make. :zany_face:

I started my test sculpture. I used Sculpd. When i opened my sculpting drawer i had Nara & Premier in there. Sooo, now i have four kinds of air-dry clay. This better work out because i have a lot to use this year.

Iā€™ve only worked with air dry clay once and it turned out ok. Iā€™ve never worked with paper mache, so I guess Iā€™ll stick with something Iā€™ve had experience with in the past. Now to make a decision on what to makeā€¦

While drying last night it formed a few minor cracks. Im going to fill those today with the slip and start attempt #2.

I have the base and I am now adding some detail before I add another layer of paper mache. I need to figure out what to do with the hollow base. I think I want to fill it with something but nothing too heavy. Off to do some researchā€¦

I have done two practice pieces. I am hoping one works out. I like it so far. It was so much fun to play with over the weekend.

I love this daylight savings! More light in the afternoon makes me feel amazing! My cats are a little confused with their feeding schedule, but they will get onboard. Also, I feel like I am getting off work early. Ha!

I made what is (probably) the Real Thing yesterday, so I guess that counts as picking a subject!

And my daughter had a girl scout lock-in at a local mall over the daylight savings night, which involved getting there at 10:30 & leaving at 5:30 am, so there was no way anybody was getting enough sleep this weekend. :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Yes! I have my subject picked out. Probably going to start building one thing tomorrow.

I love daylight savings because it means more sunlight later in the evenings and walking the dog at night is much more pleasant!

I have the main thing Iā€™m doing picked out, but not the theme.

I have several ideas floating around for the theme and Iā€™m tempted to do one of my partnerā€™s daughters themes since she likes anime like me lol

I started one piece but havenā€™t been able to get back to it yet thanks to working until 2am, hedgehog care, and having to pack up my momā€™s bedroom and bathroom the last few days. Sheā€™s doing renovations.

I have definitely picked my subject.

I mostly survived DST. I kind of hate it because now I donā€™t ā€œwakeā€ the chickens up until 7 am and they go to bed an hour later. But mostly I dislike this type of change. It disrupts my routines.
