    This video is incredibly helpful & informative on how to get started with LPS customs! I’ve only made one LPS custom character so I’m totally going to be making more in the future. I really am a beginner when it comes to this stuff, so this video is simply perfect! I also totally agree with you about the eyes being the most important part of the custom, as the eyes are what really brings the character to life. My first LPS custom is a shiny grey robot corgi named David and the eyes I made him are just a solid red color, no eye shines or pupil, but I kinda like that on that particular type of custom, as it shows that he’s a robot & not a living pet. Of course, the possibilities are pretty much endless when it comes to eyes. The eyes on your customs are insanely detailed and incredibly made! Anyway, thank you for this very well explained video on how to make customs. Also, great job on the one you did for the video, I love that base color!

    At the beginning of the step u guys will do instead of doing sculpting it after the oc is done, do it before u paint the oc in a thick layer of white paint. Then let the base dry, then u can pint and do what ever u want with it

    Thank you for making this tutorial! I've made customs before but you can see some lumps on the paint and stuff so your advice can really help. Using the paint directly or adding lots of water to paint the base coat really makes the paint every uneven. I've dry brushed the base coat before and it really helped, but for some reason I forgot to do it after a while 😅 so thanks for the reminder!
    I really wanna make a wolf custom with a great dane base by sculpting the fur, but the best clap I have is polymer sculpt. Can you give me the link to the polymer clay sculpting tutorial ? Thanks!
    Oh yea, for a suggestion, maybe you could make a deeper sculpting tutorial on clothes, hair, and other accessories? And maybe a tutorial on how you get inspiration for original character customs? Sometimes I have issues on designing a unique theme and design.

    Hi cobalt!! When you were mixing your kneadatite clay it was so smooth!! I have the exact same roll but I always end up with yellow chunks and i’m not sure if i’m doing something wrong, they become very hard and I can’t really break them apart

    • @cobalt.studios
      @cobalt.studios  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I know exactly what you’re talking about and that usually happens when it’s older and the the blue and yellow pieces have been touching in the middle for a while. They become more solidified, so to prevent this, just cut them in half and don’t mix in the part where they touch in the package. Hope that makes sense!

    what are your custom specs? (what brushes do you use, sealant, gloss layer for eyes, etc)?

    • @cobalt.studios
      @cobalt.studios  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I believe I covered most of that on the video :)
      As for brushed since I don’t think I mentioned that, I don’t use anything specific, just ones with soft bristles

    • @quackk2b2t
      @quackk2b2t ปีที่แล้ว

      ahh,, yea i found the brushes; at first i wasnt able to see the glossy sealant packaging
      ive been wondering though, how do you get such fine detials/strokes? i tried the eye stroke but even with my finest brush the stroke is too thick,, (im painting a eye redo so i cant really add paint to the sides to fix the mistake since i want to keep the original plastic fur there)

      @@quackk2b2t the matte and gloss sealer I use are pod podge and Liquitex. Both brands are good for both things.
      Using fine details brushed definitely takes practice and some are super super tiny. Getting the brush a bit wet (not drippy) with water fist helps slick the bristles together so they’re more fine and thin if that makes sense

      Like actual fur? Just don’t paint it. You can always cover it with masking take to ensure you don’t get any paint on it. And don’t put sealant on it either

    • @cobalt.studios
      @cobalt.studios  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It should be ok, just definitely do t get your custom wet and I recommend not sealing it. I’m guessing you’re going to use tempera paint? It does crack and won’t hold up over time. Acrylic paint is very cheep, and apple barrel is a good way to start out. Why won’t your mom let you use acrylic paint?

      Ooh ya I could definitely make a tutorial on that. Gradients are tricky but it helps to get a base of both colors, let them try, and then add a wet layer of both and blend. A bit confusing to explain through typing, sorry about that. Hopefully it makes sense and helps :)
