It's been a long time coming, months since I made my last Hanna character, but I had a sudden moment of creativity last week! I'm really pleased with this one, despite much complaining at him during the making ("I hate your stupid hair, Lamont" and many many other similar and more extreme comments, heh), having to, at one point, pick his eyes off with the point of a knife to move them, and ridiculously impractical fabric I used instead of buying more cos I'm a cheapskate and would rather dig out old scraps from under the table with the spider nest (it frayed as soon as I so much as LOOKED at it so every single edge had to be seamed or hemmed properly, which at that scale meant it took about six hours to make the thing!), and his arm dropping off several times til I ended up supergluing it to the inside of his sleeve, heh
But he's done, and he's all Lamonty and squishy and adorable - he's really soft cos I padded him out with felt and tissue
I don't have any more Lamontish background sets, so he gets to hang out in Worth's office. Made him some boxes to carry so he at least has one prop all to himself, heh
Lamont Toucey belongs to *vert-is-ninja and is from her fantastic webcomic Hanna Is Not A Boy's Name
Aw, people have said that before, but I think it'd be REALLY hard to animate these guys cos they are poseable but the wires are so springy you have to manhandle them quite dramatically to get them into new poses, so making tiny adjustments to animate smooth motion would be impossible. I might try anyway, one day, though!
Thanks! It was quite hard to figure out how to do his hair, in the end I just smushed it around with a paintbrush handle and a needle then added the loose bits after
Thanks! I enjoy thinking up details to add, my favourite prop on the desk is the stack of post-it notes which are cut from real post-it note so they really do peel apart and stick to things along the top edge
