I fail really hard at making the 'cookie cutters' but other than that the tutorial is going smoothly.
You worded it awesomely and it was not only a joy to look at, but a joy to read and try as well
Keep up the good work! You deserve cake.

You can cut them all by hand, but the cookie cutter thing only helps with the consistancy since you'll need so many of them. I did the first one by hand and got lazy and ended up with an ugly cube. I didn't incinerate it though. I didn't have the heart to.

Good thing this was here, I've been euthanizing too many of my companions,

I've always wondered how the cube was made....
Great tutorial. I may make one sometime.

Don't know anything about Portal OR companion cubes, but the instructions were well written and well illustrated!

do you REALLY have to kill it?????
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
<3 You are awesome. I was thinking about trying to make some cubes after I saw the ones you made. But, since my skills at crafts rarely go towards using tin snips, I'm just gonna make plushie companion cubes. But I will have to try this sometime.

Thank you for making this ^^
Now I can try my hand at it - but if you don't see any new art from me in a few weeks it means I've probably cut my hand off somehow, lol

Also, you may not believe me, but the only things I'm missing to do this right now is the foam and the wood xD I actually have tin and snippers laying around x3
