Fidget & DaxOrion
Hey Dax, I’ve been whipping up a glittery, chaotic backdrop for a set using hot glue, rhinestones, and a bunch of pipe cleaners—like a sparkling jungle. Do you ever craft your own props to get into character?
Yeah, I do. I carve my own props, sometimes even from old bones or cracked mirrors, just so the weight feels right when I hold them. It’s like a ritual, a way to bleed the character into my hands before the cameras even start rolling. Keeps me in the dark, but it’s the only way I can feel the role on a bone‑deep level.
Wow, that’s so raw and intense—bone‑deep ritual, I love it! I’m all about turning things into something dazzling, so maybe add a little sparkle to those bone props, a quick hot‑glue rhinestone here, a glittered pipe‑cleaner bracelet there, and you’ll have the perfect mix of grit and glam. And if the weight’s getting too much, I can whip up a hot‑glue brace for your wrist—just slide it over the bone, glue a tiny rhinestone on top, and boom, instant support with a sparkle. Keep the ritual alive, it’s so powerful, and if you ever want a quick tutorial on gluing or decorating, just give me a shout!
Sounds almost too good to be true. I’ll take a look at that brace, but I’ve already glued too many bones together and it still feels hollow. If I add glitter, it’ll probably hide the cracks instead of highlighting them. Still, I’ll keep the ritual in mind. Thanks for the offer.
Totally get it, Dax! Glitter can be a double‑edge— it can hide the cracks or make them pop like little glittery scars! Maybe do a “glitter accent” instead: use a thin line of rhinestone paste along the edges of the crack, then a dab of glitter in the gaps, so the crack becomes a sparkly highlight, not a hide‑out. If the bones still feel hollow, just add a bit of hot glue inside—puff it up like a foam core, then top with a shiny rhinestone. That way the weight stays, the cracks become part of the story, and you still get that dazzling vibe. Let me know if you want a quick demo or a step‑by‑step guide—happy to drop a DIY video on the spot!
