    Quick tip, since it wasn't mentioned in her video: this featherweight boning often comes in a roll, which causes it to coil when you may want it to lay flat. You can iron the boning to make it malleable and then allow it to cool in whatever shape you want it. Be sure to keep the fabric sleeve on it while you iron to avoid the plastic melting to your iron. Happy sewing!
    Side note: though you may find some beginner sewists using zip ties as boning, Nefertity is correct in warning against it. Zip ties will not only degrade over time, but can also lose their shape, requiring you to replace them to maintain rigidity.

    Wonderful tutorial!! I'm currently working on a dutch angel dragon premade that I plan to sell at a convention, but I'm struggling quite a bit with how to go about applique'ing the smaller designs onto the wing minky. The tutorial you made on how to make wings was definitely helpful but I'm still not quite getting it. As an idea for your next tutorial, do you think you could go more into detail on how you applique markings into minky?
    Any elaboration would be a huge help. Love your work, keep it up!!

    hey neffertity, this question is off topic to the video, but do you ever plan to make a quadsuit in the future? Maybe of your dragon character? I'm asking this because I can barely find any tutorials of quadsuits and I'm making one for Halloween this year. Thanks 👍👍

    • @Neffertity
      @Neffertity  2 года назад +2

      So to begin with, I doubt I will ever be able to do a quadsuit because of my scoliosis. The back pain is too much for me to take the strain a quadsuit would put on me.
      And following that, I want to mention that quadsuits are INCREDIBLY DEMANDING to wear, and I would not recommend one for anyone with back or neck issues, and not for minors either.
      This would put your health at severe risk, and is very ill advised.

    I'm not doing this for vies this is simply artist to artist. Do you mind if you take a look ant my oc named Sydney? She is a Fnaf security breach oc but she's leaning to be more of a furry oc and I'm thinking of getting her commissioned when I get a job lol [NOT ASKING FOR COMMISSION]
    I'm not sure about her design as her color scheme is extremely used and not really original. I was thinking of making her a more original character by making a furry type as a test but again, she dosent look original .
    I'd extremely appreciate if you had a quick look at her as I'm only in grade 7 and trying to get my name out as not many people know my art
