Q&A

What inspired the idea of creating a universe of blob characters?

I have been making various characters over the years, and I wanted to bring them all together in a single universe. Blob characters seemed like a fun and versatile choice.

What challenges did you face during the process of creating the molds?

I faced several challenges, including leaks in the mold box, underfilling the mold, and struggling to separate the mold halves. However, I learned from these mistakes and made improvements in subsequent attempts.

Why did you decide to mass-produce the blobs using molds?

By using molds, I can easily replicate the base character and create multiple blobs quickly. This allows me to establish a consistent look for the universe and explore variations and customization.

How do you plan to further develop the blob universe?

Now that I have the molds, I can continue to create new blob characters and explore their interactions and stories. I aim to expand the universe and experiment with different designs and materials.

What advice do you have for others interested in creating their own character universe?

Don't be afraid to experiment and try new techniques. Embrace failures as learning opportunities and persist through challenges. Above all, have fun and let your creativity guide you in building a unique character universe.
