My little Kobold is all finished! What a cutie!! I put so much love into this and I am so proud of how it all came together. Sculpted by hand with @monsterclayusa and cast in urethane. You can preorder a blank cast kit to finish your own lil goober this Friday at 2pm PDT and a second batch will drop next Friday, same time. There are new tutorials available on the free tutorial page in my shop. You can also check out my process for creating these masks by supporting my p a t r e o n ❤️🐉 #missmonster #missmonstermel #sculpture #dragon #mask #monsterclay #kobold #dnd

Calling this outfit done in time for LBM/ MCC.

Amazing mask cast from Missmonster, painted it, made the glove & hood and collected some stuff for the outfit

Snagged a miscast last week. A few holes and extra bits but worth the work.

Imma make you pretty.

I'll grind it soon, along with a Sentinel I bought last year, but I need to plan my painting.

Absolutely over the moon about this mask from @missmonstermel . Quality practically drips from every aspect of it, from the beautiful painting to the care taken in the placement of the padding (of which there's a generous amount too). It's so comfortable and fun to wear I just have to make a costume for it now!

It's finally time for the last member of the Zeron Brotherhood, Zeron Omega! It's hard to pick a favourite though they inch out Alpha just a smidge for me. Unlike the rest they do not have a paint online making this the best reference we've ever had.

This orthographic is of course by Fury Galluzzi and the OG character designer is @missmonstermel!

The design thread for the Zeron's is mostly ready to go, just want to hold off a bit just in case Fruiz uploads anything regarding them. There's one piece that is currently only in miniature that would be fantastic to see in full view. Watch this space?

Howdy, this is the barn owl that recently sent a request, wanted to say it was for a therian moodboard, I still really liked the moodboard but maybe if you could change the second plush (the jellycat one can stay it's really cute) and the mug

no problem! ^^

here you go, i hope this one suits you better!! enjoy and have a nice day :]

Hey! I hope you don't mind the message - I just wanted to say, your tags made me cry. I'm so happy that our makin silly lil creatures over here could mean something to you all these years later. You absolutely can do what you want, and make a living at it, and more people need to hear that. Everyone in our lives told us we couldn't - we were just too stubborn to listen. I sincerely thank you, I'm going to look at these tags anytime I feel discouraged, and I hope we can make you a monster one day. <3

OH MY GOODNESS!!!! I didn't see this originally and finally checked my inbox and saw this.

Now I'm feeling teary eyed ... I genuinely think it was artists like you both, Melissa Curphy (@missmonstermel), and Allison Theus (@crispyfishsticks) who showed me at a young age you CAN make awesome monsters and be wonderfully successful and HAPPY doing so.

I'm not joking at all when I say I found your DeviantArt over 10 years ago and it stuck with me ever since. I've kept up with Homemade Horrors since then on multiple platforms. It was always a dream of mine to have a custom monster made by you both, and now that I have an actual career position (transgender healthcare, which still doesn't feel real! That this is happening and it's Real!!) I may be able to afford that someday. ❤️

For reference this is the post and tags and if you like the looks of this gorgeous creature you should DEFINITELY give them a follow!!!!! Homemade Horrors are AMAZING and everything Worms and Bones make together is always so full of love and creativity.

Who would you say are your biggest inspirations, artistically?

i'd say to begin with tim burton is up there. i grew up with a lot of stuff he made/worked on without even knowing it tbh lol

currently it's just a big mishmash of the many artists i follow online. i guess if i were to pick out a few uhh...

spoonfayse with his many odd characters/creatures/settings. very dreamlike images and comics. really like his MSpaint drawings since he has such a good feel for form and can simply accomplish it with solid blocks of color. people who can do that still blows my mind lol

missmonstermel makes really cool/fun monsters with amazing linework and detail, but she's the one who really got me into mask/costume making. i remember following along while she was making her werewolf costume and i used it as a tutorial for making my first mask!

Dendril's work also really got me with it's dreamlike, surreal quality. but now she's doing more cartoony monsters and they're always so lively and exaggerated with very good form and texture. a lot of her halloween themed art also feels really nostalgic :>

The artist is still active on Tumblr.

Somehow ended up being airbrush day today for these noggins. Still a bit more painting to go before that phase is done though. The Chophound (green one) only took me literally 6 years to get around and finish oops.

Skull one was made by me, green Chophound was sculpted by @missmonstermel

I just broke down crying at a sculpting video by @missmonstermel. Their work is so incredible, and so detailed, and I am so, so angry at my parents for discouraging my interest in costuming, puppetry, and art in general. I was told over and over and OVER again that I wouldn't make any money doing that (from my dad, who is a failed professional artist).

And now I feel like too much time has gone by, and my hands are now too unsteady, my mental and physical health too poor (from decades of directionless depression), that it's not worth starting over.

I turn 40 next year.

Fuck.
