vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 13/04/2026for the thermochromatic paint and all it's associated work.. So there's no way I can do this for the final weekend at Sherwood.. :( So I'll just be static colored for the coming weekend. 000
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 13/04/2026use on him. The good news: I know why it happened, and I already have a plan to resolve this, and (hopefully) make his color changing permanent for use outdoors, not just indoors away from the sun. The bad news: It takes over a week, from start to fully cured 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 13/04/2026Thank you all, for the overwhelmingly positive response Vulpabrood's new look! The sad news, is that after the weekend of extremes at Sherwood Forest Faire, his thermochromic paint stopped working. This is actually something I fought with, over the last few months in making this paint for 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Ok, it's time! The big thing I've been working on and keeping secret till now, is that I've made Vulpabrood ✨thermochromatic✨! His head and side horns literally change color with heat. I AM THE MOOD RING DRAGON! 0176
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 10/04/2026I took this cause I was WAY too excited to have him back, and I forgot to install his other four guard feathers.. Oh well, more to follow! 000
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 10/04/2026So off came the masking for the optical acrylic I cut and built into him! Also, his paint came out GORGEOUS. 000
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 29/03/2026It's not -perfect- But, it's close enough that I'm not feeling the need to strip it back down to primer, for the sixth time... 000
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 09/03/2026I'm not using a crappy 40 dollar airbrush anymore, I've improved my skillset, I've learned to make my own paint, I've learned how to make things just -look- better.. It's unfortunate that I'm losing this much effort, but I'm not upset about it, I'm happy that I can go back and do it much better. 000
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 09/03/2026So going from that, to his face, made me just feel that I didn't do my best. Now, that's not to put myself down.. But in just the few months I've been working on him now, I've learned A LOT. 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 09/03/2026No. "Good enough" is not what I want for Vulpabrood... I want him to be the best work I can be. What finally sealed the deal, was considering the horns I did. I have no regrets and nothing I want too improve about them.. They came out amazing. 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 09/03/2026 I stopped being happy with them, when I had to cover the Nihilak oxide... I should have stopped and started over then. But I kept telling myself "But I've put -so- much time into this!" and I realized that was just my brains way of trying to tell me that my work was "good enough".. 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 09/03/2026Now, that alone, wasn't what prompted me to take him all the way back down to plastic. I was realizing the poll I asked about the black lines, and that I wasn't upset with the lines themselves, but rather I wasn't happy with their appearance. 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 09/03/2026Wow.. So this is gonna be longwinded (And hopefully inspiring?).. But this happened. Intentionally. I wasn't happy with how one of the secret features came out, so I started to remove it, and as a I delved deeper, I found things I didn't like about how I setup the base. 100
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 04/03/2026For real. This is my life, depicted photographically. 000
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 04/03/2026So. ADHD is a real affliction. Things are messy, so the need to clean them up happens. The "clean up" isn't good enough. Pretty soon, I'm designing my own custom wall storage, because I can't find one that fits what I want. And then it happens: The project now has a mind and life of it's own. 120
vulpabrood.bsky.social @vulpabrood.bsky.social · 01/03/2026Time to reveal one of the big suprises in design! (Cameo from Smolderg) 080
