Description
I was making a few leeches for a wedding cake and for some crazy reason I decided to make a tutorial out of it. This is my first ever tutorial so forgive me if it's vague.These aren't painted as my paints are still in transit. But they're still cute!

I think I farmed them so much when I was starting out that I went insane and started to like them lol.

Lol I thought you saw it! Thanks, that's where my flip-flopping through avatars has come from. I like the leech one day then my character the next.

The power of the leech compels you @.@ lol
Thanks! It looked so plain and boring without something but I'm surprised it's so liked.

I love this! The drawing at the top is so adorable, and seeing how your leech comes together is really great. I might have to make a couple myself. What kind of paints do you recommend for them, though?

Blackash In reply to mori-sayurii [2010-01-05 03:08:06 +0000 UTC]
Thanks! I just use cheap acrylic paints (reeves is the brand) but I find it's better to use lots of thin layers instead of one or two normal thickness. So just add water until your paint is at an ink like consistancy. Oh and let the coats dry.

I liked the drawing at the top too xD
You are really patient, I could never find myself doing those, I fail with these xD

Thanks! I had put it together and it looked so boring. You might surprise yourself, it's really not as hard as you think.

1. The drawing at the top is cuuuute.
2. That looks insanely tedious for the size you made them. I don't think I could've made one antenna, much less two, without messing up several times and throwing it at the wall. >_>
3. You made these for a wedding cake?! D:

Thanks! I dunno if I want the leech or my character as my avatar though T.T
The worst part is adding all the little balls, other than that they are not all that difficult.
It's a theme cake! I am super excited about it cause I'm making the topper too. I made a couple gobbies a goobbue and a golem with these too. If I ever get my paints in I'll post them.
