Need some advice please on FLocking
« on: May 01, 2012, 07:26:38 AM »
Ellis is being kind enough to send me a bit of flocking to use on a pony. I have had someone request a Harry Dresden Pony with a stubbly beard. Like a 5:00 shadow. I wanted to do it in flocking because it would be super neat..

But I have no idea HOW to do this.. Do I paint the stubble on and then add white flocking to the paint and it will still show brown? Or do I use brown flocking? Ellis is sending me some brown I think.

A step by step guide would be super useful if anyone is willing to help.

Also, where is a good place to buy it online? I thought Dollyhair sold it but I didn't see it there.

I bought mine off ebay, and I used the same stuff in this tutorial

I did it over a spotty pony and the spots still show thru, so your beard would show thru if painted first. Never used coloured flocking, co cant help with that,
Looking forward to seeing your custom!

Whit is all I had and I sent you about half the bottle. you should have enough to practice on ^.^ Just use a shade darker paint and all will be well.

Thanks Ellis! I think the white may be the better choice anyway :)
