How can I create fur markings on felt for a tiger?
Can I use Fabric Mod Podge to prepare the surface for marking?
- Fabric Mod Podge will give you a wet look more appropriate for reptiles.
- Stiff hold hairspray keeps the surface looking like felt but stiffens it (as it does for hair), so for a lion, the sprayed areas will become stiff and may not bend nicely - Hairspray is better reserved for heads and faces.
- Archival ink can be used with carved eraser stamps to make markings
- Micron pend in 05 of larger - waterproof and permanent also works well - use a light touch to avoid damaging the nib.
- Uni Posca paint pens -. 7mm pin type (the finest nib they make) also works well and will yield the darkest color.
