I've been so slack on actually uploading images!
Here's a whole bunch of process pictures of my monster making.

First, here are the fabrics I got my images printed on!  They turned out exactly how I had hoped!


This image is of the patterns I made to construct my monsters from.



One of the monsters, in progress, I hand stitched everything (mostly because I was far too lazy to unpack my sewing machine.)


The following in-progress shot is of a grimlings (it's what I call em) that may or may not be complete tomorrow.


Then I made the eyes!



Now for the teeth, I made molds of my baby teeth out of this paint on rubber mold stuff.  Then I poured resin into each tooth mold (there's 8 total).



Once the resin is set, I can peel out each tooth.


I combined them with this air dry porcelain I had and then treated them with coffee.

I combined them all on the monsters.  
Here are the finished 2 ready for show and tell tomorrow.











For future Grimlings, I'm going to find some 20-25mm glass cabachons for the eyes.  For the big brown one I really wanted big eyes, the 10mm cabachon eyes I made were too small for my liking, but had the perfect effect.

The blue Grimling monster I used baby safe eyes.
I also liked how those turned out.
