i'm doing another squishy makeover but this time things are gonna be a little
different because i'm limiting myself to using only one color
how is that possible i just thought this would make things a little more interesting
be a bit more of a challenge not that squishy makeovers aren't already challenging enough yeah
they just take forever so i guess this is an added challenge on top of the already existing challenge
that squishy makeovers already present a two in one you guys really get to see me suffer today
yay anyways i'm gonna be picking one of these colors completely at random so i'm
gonna blindfold myself i could just close my eyes but the blindfold is more dramatic
alright blue it is it is the one color challenge so i will be using blue but i'm gonna allow myself
to use black and white too i don't really count black and white as colors i mean
come on come on give me a break so if that bothers you i apologize well that was disturbing
so the first squishy i'll be giving a makeover to is this freak of nature this thing is very
ugly honestly one of the ugliest squishies i've ever seen next to my buddy littlefoot over here
i picked these up at the dollar store sometime back the dollar store squishies are a whole new
level of ugly i don't know if they're purposefully trying to make them cursed looking or if that's
just their style they also have very specific shapes it's hard coming up with what to do
with them pretty much impossible to turn them into anything other than what they already are
i had to really stretch my imagination with this one also the squishies themselves are very cheap
quality so if you sand them down it could create a lot of texture so i tried to sand them as gently
as possible sanding dollar store squishies is less of a massacre more of a gentle exfoliation
gentle gentle that's not gentle the seams on this squishy were out of control but that's an easy fix
i just trimmed them up tiny little cuts teeny tiny cuts i'm not just trying to fix this squishy i
want to give it a whole new life make it a lot more creepier and a whole lot more cuter it's
not perfect but i tried to get as close of a trim as possible the next thing i trimmed off was his
tail i want my character to be able to stand and the tail was kind of getting in the way of that
tiny little cuts teeny tiny cuts i'm not amputating the tail completely well i i guess
i did i just want to rearrange it so he can stand but first i mixed up some soft matte with some
slick paint to add a white base coat i find the soft matte isn't as transparent as regular matte
paint but it does have some texture so i mix it with slick paint to get the perfect balance
thanks to the soft matte it doesn't take nearly as long to paint it white as it used to
sometimes i like to paint squishy parts before i attach them other times i paint them
after i glue them together this time i chose to paint them separately it's a bit hard to hold
the tail while painting it since it's so tiny but i did some maneuvering and made it work
i also have these two little squishy parts i think they must have been someone's ears in a past
life today they're gonna be feet or feet fins i guess little tiny feeties how cute
beep boop i tried to cut them so they would fit snugly against the shark i glued everything
together i ended up not painting the feet fins since they're already white saved myself the
10 minutes the tail sticking out a little bit but that's fine i'm sealing everything in with
puffy paint so no big deal i even sealed in the feet fins ensuring those aren't going anywhere
i let that dry overnight puffy paint takes a while to dry so i gave it plenty of time
and here it is this is basically what it's going to look like except it's not painted yet it was
always important to me that the squishy could stand up on its own after all my alterations it
seems to have some more stability gold star for me so here we go with my one color you're gonna
be seeing plenty of blue today i almost chose a blue background but sniffledorf tore up my
last blue background so yellow it is i mixed up a few shades to get my perfect blue gorgeous it's
actually not the precise shade i want so i'm doing some adjusting i'm going for a nice ocean breeze
kind of blue that doesn't look much different but it it'll do i sketched on the belly of the shark
that way i know what parts to avoid painting it's supposed to be kind of like a great white shark
trying to keep that same sharky vibe as before except hopefully less ugly that's always the goal
i always try to do that i did manage to get some paint on the belly so i'm just trying to touch
that up since it's not acrylic paint touch-ups on squishies take quite a while to do lots and
lots of layering thank goodness for soft matte paint though or else it would take even longer
i didn't do the best job attaching the tail to the shark it's not seamless by any means that's not to
say i didn't try oh yeah speaking of things i'm doing wrong i'm using more than one shade of blue
today i just felt like if i didn't then everything would be one color and that's not really exciting
i mean i'm still using one color i'm just allowing myself to use more than one shade it's still gonna
be all blue so technically no rules are broken at least in my book i'm adding some separation
between his limbs it's hard to make straight lines my hands were kind of shaking quite a bit
especially since i've been sitting at my desk for like six hours already
so this isn't a shark it used to be a shark now it's just a corpse it's very carefully stitched
together by the little guy that's gonna be inside the corpse it's like a shark costume of sorts
just made out of an actual shark cute cute i kept getting little specks of paint everywhere
it's the most frustrating thing so many touch-ups are required i know things are looking like a mess
but again that's not to say i didn't try i don't know if the eyes are looking evil or
derpy i wanted them to kind of look derpy this shark must have been some level of derp derp
because he managed to get killed by a seal that's the murderer inside the costume little reverse
food chain for you today the seal is wearing a shark costume to avoid being eaten by another
more capable shark this way he kind of blends in with the crowd swims by completely unnoticed
i hope you guys like that concept took me a while to come up with it just by looking at the seal you
would never know what he's truly capable of no one would ever suspect him of being the murderer he is
anyways this maggot is my next makeover candidate this might look familiar it's one of the squishies
that mariah elizabeth sent me i'm pretty sure it's the squishy that she flickingly discarded after
making fun of his beautiful udders and stealing his wings he's here for a second chance at life
lucky him i've got just the home for him a giant turd turd i felt like since he's missing his
wings he needed something to keep him warm hence the turd it's actually the turd that little red
riding hood plopped out so it's nice and fresh from a couple months ago it's already painted
white from when i painted those human squishies a while back i just never got around to finishing
the poop been holding that one back for a while stay tuned for the poop so our little maggot
is going from a butterfly to a maggot to now a snail some twisted evolution for you i used the
spare squishy part i had for its tail this time i felt it would be best if i painted everything
white after it's all glued together i also added a little wizard's hat out of spare squishy parts
it doesn't look like a wizard's hat but i think it does once i'm done with it
i have wilfred here from the dollar store he has some really pretty ears
so i'm chopping those off and adding them to my snail i just felt it wouldn't look much like a
snail without the eye stalks i didn't have spare squishy parts that i could substitute for him so
that's why i had to force wilfred to donate today those aren't the only donations i'm collecting i'm
stealing some feet from mariah's turtle it's okay though mariah also took the feet off one of these
so they're used to it i tried shaping them up into perfect little circles or at least as close as i
could get they're really tiny not the easiest task they're the snail's eyeballs gently hot glued on
top of his eyestalks i didn't do anything about the headphones the maggot was wearing i just plan
on camouflaging them with the rest of the squishy they're meant to be like chubby cheeks kinda like
how honey and booboo have i sealed everything in with puffy paint as best as i could it's
harder than it looks just trying my best here i'm actually pretty happy with this concept of
using the poop as the snail shell for the longest time i didn't know what to do with it i think it's
perfect for the snail though i'm sticking to using only blue for the snail as well blue is
the color for today blue it is i didn't feel like blindfolding myself all over again to pick another
color for the snail it's going to look very different from the shark though not just because
of the shape but also because of the shades of blue i use i painted the snail himself a lighter
color just so he pops out a bit more i'm fixing up the mess on his head like i said it's meant to
be a wizard hat that his eyes are kind of poking out of i didn't have a hat squishy to use that's
why i just cut and pasted this trash together i'm just working with what i have guys i added
some decor to the hat tried to make it look more wizardy and magical headmaster dumble snail maybe
that'll be his name i'm still deciding i went a little crazy with the polka dots on his shelf
i just didn't know when to stop kept adding more and more and more and more and more way too many
if i'm being honest he's got some dandruff going on on his shell but he's not worried he's smiling
through the pain his eyes look a little done with life you can always tell what a person is
truly feeling if you just take a look into their eyes he's been through a lot been slowly slugging
through life he's gained a lot of wisdom on his adventures you can tell by his wispy mustache and
goatee thing he's got going on i really like this guy but the shell just looks ridiculous
it looks way too busy there's too much dandruff going on poor guy i've decided to tone it down
i covered up most of the polka dots a little bit of a home remodel if you will i did keep the giant
polka dots made it look more like a shell and less of a pile of blue poo so here's the results of my
first ever one color challenge yes it is one color all blue and black and white just like i said one
