its the Armstrong siblings. the other ones.

As ive had a period of getting back into the lisa games after like. 7 years? i did have an idea of making a felting of these two. two. beforehand. and well. i sure did. twice.
made two pairs because A) im not putting thought into the pain that be, and B) that i can keep one set for myself and sell off the other to some lucky bastard.

listening to the game sountracks the entire duration of making this and nothing else. it is amazing music, but having it up over and over again had almost tempted me to blast a hole into the walls.

also in part that i wanted to test and flex my skill in getting buddy to latch onto rando, to do that whole piggyback thing. its cute.
which i had especially wanted to do it in a way where they can still seperate instead of having to be attached by the fibers.
really fucking proud of it.

when doing duplicates, i tend to do them together at the same time so the steps are done one right after another because im pretty damn sure that had i completed a sculpture as is thats fine, but then i gotta do the same shit aaaaaall fucking over again well.
well i suppose theres a reason yall dont see much animation in this psuedo portolio of this website, ey?

wifi is acting up so i had to wait for the next day to work on this web page.
but now... without furtheer ado- try not to kick my ass.

please.

enjoy.

WIPS

getting rando in first. bulking out his overall shapes with scrap wool which is really only good for filler. bits and pieces at a time.

bird meat legs of a mother fucket.

taking a turn to do the buddys now. shes at a smaller, simpler shape so putting some of her skin on already.

attaching the legs onto the randos now, now I'll say here that i take his pixelated sprite as wearing some sort of a mc hammer parachute pants situation, so thats why I've added extra material to it. Also in that the photos do not tell that the torso area is pretty firm and dense for all the stabbing i had done, while the leg parts are rather soft.

now before i go putting on the outer skin wool of the pants, I added a layer of gray to factor in the chance that the filler wool would poke out from between the fibers. sure the brown could be done as "dirt", but rando isnt like. dirty. despite yknow- the apocalypse setting. shrugs.

those shoulder pads things rando has on whatever theyre called. i heard that when theyre smooth bald as armor, thats fine.
BUT putting spikes on them is always gonna be used in a fantasy setting because its a stupid ass idea to put spikes on something right next to your little fragile head with highly pokeable eyes. helmets wont do shit.

looking it up. ah theyre called pauldrons. I guess paul was very proud of them.

ANYWAY. so im here making two randos yeah, both got 2 shoulders. so that means i gotta make 4 pads. okay.
motherfucker but theres 3 spikes on EACH shoulder.
so gotta make 3, and another 3 for the other side. and then do it some more because theres the other guy to outfit on.

12.

each spike is something i had to do one at a time and theyre tiny little shits that i had to pinch between my fingers to hold them in place as im driving the needle back and forth to shape it
so that was all just PRIIIIIME TIME to stabbing myself over and fucking over again.
THE THINGS I DO FOR ART. FUCK YOU AI USERS YOULL NEVA BE SHIT

huffs. moving on.

now rando is starting to get more recognizable.

i like to make colors be mixed and marbled, more realistic, more organic. as i was preparing the skin tone, i threw in a rainbow.
because my idea was that since the lisa games mostly take place in an apocalyptic setting, it should be reflected on these feltings- in that adding these extra blue and green and reds to the flesh is to be like. cuts and bruises and the such. yknow how it is.

Aslo now i can put the proper layer to the pants. added some extra hues so theyre not just blank black. its the little things.

getting a pile of buddys limbs ready

before committing to putting randos skin on, i debated if he should have bigger boobs.
OF COURSE hes gonna have bigger boobs! who the hell do you think i am? i may be dumb but i aint stupid!

putting a bubber band on the rando because i want him to hold a pose with his arms bent up. as for when buddy is clinging on, it'll appear as if hes holding onto her legs to keep her stead. but if buddy is off, itll look like hes having his fists up at the ready to be going for a fight.
yeah yeah make the bondage jokes later.

getting buddys face. mixing colors to make her bandage look dirty and scuffed up.

i tried to make her hold neutral expresion, just a small straight line to her mouth. like.
'_'
yknow.
however due to the round shape of her head, different tilts and angles will affect how it looks and would sometimes make her look like shes smiling. ill put that into consideration for later.
no i couildnt just tear off the mouth because it will cause a lot more trouble than its worth with displacing more fibers.

now buddy got her limbs. looks like shes cheering here. happy to have them on finally.

my favorite part of this whole project.

getting buddys poncho. which was formally brads.

now for randos iconic red skull.
i thought i can poke out the eyeholes, but ending up having to fill them in anyway.

getting the head parts the last to put on for them. buddys hair, and then poytail. as for rando, his little gay ass horn.

yay.

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

my fingers got fucked up. so much so ill show yall the damage of index, middle and thumb.

551 stabs. with 9 days working on this.

GALLERY

theres gonna be 63 photos here because theres 4 people to photograph. i spent 2 hours just doing the wips section... now i gotta do this shit.
for the outdoors, I did the pair that i'll keep for myself, as the inside photos are to the pair that would be hopefully sold off. not getting the fibers all scuffed up rubbing against moss and rocks.

probably felt good to be around greens...

H-hey bu-buddy get d-d-down from there. It's n-not safe for you

NO facka you I'm queen of da world!

WHUUAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

SHIT I-I GOT YOU

WOOH YAH I WON IM ALIVE YA HEAR THAT RANDO

rando?

now for the indoor photos.

buddys arms can be manipulated a bit if theyre up or down. up is default, but if the poncho is pulled over then itll hold them down.

the poncho fits buddy just fine, even conformed to her shape afte a few days!
as for rando...
cant even fit his head through.

rando is around half of a foot long ruler. bigger number with horn included.

while buddys length is a bit more complicated, as she is in a sitting pose, and also just there with leg outstretched.

now getting at all the different angles

hey comso, meet them.

he dont care

showing the slight differences between each pairing.

when there is no piggyback, i can lay rando on the ground and with his arms bent like that, it can look like hes doing push ups with buddy cheering him on to beat his past high record!

hooh.

there done. finished. its over.
took 4 hours to write all this stuff down for webpage.

someone get a sprite png of the piggyback. put it in the wiki. for me. please.
