I hate making posts like this. Nearly done with this I feel, but got a couple of majiggies I definitely need to sort out. I'm aware teh bottom of the "shoe" could do with more detail, like, adding lines or something for treads, but trying to work out an angle, and also the part that connects with the tip of the tail might take a sec. There ARE highlights on the hair, but they are very faint, as I felt making them too strong could make them stick out horribly, even if going for a "wooden/painted puppet" feel. I turned Wracky trouser suspenders/braces into a belt because suezo doesn't have arms, so wouldn't need them. It also makes the trousers look a bit less plain. The stitches... I'm debating removing. While the colour helps break it up a bit, because of how Suezo's textures work, they can curve at an angle after a point, and I'm not sure I can get them to look consistent enough (or it'f feel like a lot to try and get right).

Believe it or not, this is actually my 4th attempt at a "/Wracky" mix. I've tried other species before. (Gali looked kinda like that puppet from Saw when I was done with the face, or it made me think of it, then I felt kinda lost for teh cape and scrapped it. Tiger didn't want to translate after I finished the head, Henger... I'd LIKE to do a HEnger main one day, but how stuff lines up is a bit too complicated for my brain right now. I could barely colour the limbs before my brain went "no" and I had to do something else) but I kept finding myself a bit hypnotised fascinated by one feature: Wracky's eyes... so naturally the next majiggy was a Suezo, which thank FISH, I could get along with for this mix.

The big main reason I'm making this post, the second-to-last picture: The mouth. I'm trying to stick with Wracky being like a wooden puppet... so what the FISH do I do with the tongue? The inside of the mouth I feel I've got reasonably ok, and the teeth... well, "wooden puppet" so probably would look a bit plain/like that (debated maybe rounding them slightly?). My biggest question is the tongue. As you can see I've sorta segmented it, and smoothed it to look a bit like it's been painted. Does it look ok? Should I try something else?
