I keep forgetting about the Lemmy groups, and my health sucks, so this post is just trying to make my addled brain remember these groups, heh.

Anyhoo, this project is for my elder son (if anyone remembers the Vault Boy one I made for my younger son a few months back), and I’m attempting a few new tricks.

  1. I stapled this monks cloth to a painting frame. It does look like I’ll need to do some tightening once I’m done, though. So I hope I can figure that out.
  2. I painted the outside, eyes, and mouth, and I do like how the mouth and eyes make the fabric pop.
  3. I found a larger needle that came with a kit on one heck of a sale at Hobby Lobby, and that is what I’m using. However, it is a tad too large for the yarn I got. So quite a bit of it looks rather frazzled, :thinking:.
  4. And I’m attempting (all-be-it a poor one) flow. (I have no idea what the proper term would be, heh, but it’s where the thread leans in one direction, or flows along a line so each row…erm…flows with every other row. (Oof! Well hopefully you can understand that gibberish, HAH).

Meh, regardless of the issues (and boy can I not draw worth snot) it still looks pretty darn good. Now for the body…:grimacing:…The proportions are just a tad off, but it’ll have to do.


woops! Guess I didn’t post about the Vault Sweet Vault here…Well, here’s that one.
