Your creation is so cool. All the eyes and the glow in the dark feature, awesome! Great job on the entire figurine. I particularly like the colours you used and all the detail.

He’s adorable. I can picture him kind of awkwardly walking. Waddling, as it were​:wink:

I haven’t heard of cosclay before. I like the bendy aspect of it. Besides bendy-ness does it make him slightly squishy? It’s swirling in my head about marrying this with something 3D printed, but nothing cohesive (it’s still only 6:30a).

I, too, thought the bestiary page had come from a book. Kudos for being able to manipulate AI to get it to do that!

Thank you!

The cosclay, once baked, has a slight give to it. It’s halfway between a rubber ball and a traditional polymer clay bake (super firm and rigid). It’s an intersting feel. The only thing I’d worry about with a 3d printed base under the Cosclay is the base melting or creating noxious gasses during the baking process because Cosclay does have to be oven baked. I did a write up comparing various clays and their pros/cons in the Sculpture Swap thread if you’re interested. For a 3d printed base, one of the air dry clays might be a better choice.

I really enjoyed your article!
It made me miss paper mache. I think the last time I used it was…uhhh…I think for one of the Halloween swaps at least over 14 years ago.
