Seems to me that is the main difference in the two. <BR/>I absolutely love the way the flowers have turned out.<BR/><BR/>PattiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-59765231688894217202009-03-11T17:43:00.000+00:002009-03-11T17:43:00.000+00:00Thanks :-)I added more buds but it didn't work.One...Thanks :-)<BR/><BR/>I added more buds but it didn't work.<BR/><BR/>One of the problems is room. I have made each bud with a stem and then glued that little stem to the the main stem. This limits how many I can get in.<BR/><BR/>I always try to do them as they are in real life. As I said in an earlier post, the real buds have stems and aren't just stuck onto the main stem.<BR/><BR/>I think in this case I'll have to compromise and glue them straight to the stem.<BR/><BR/>To be honest, at the top you can't even see whether they have a tiny stem or are glued straight to the main stem so I think it'll be Ok...just not my preferred method of working.<BR/><BR/>I also agree that the sizes are very off. I think that is why I'll do better starting from the bottom.<BR/><BR/>As for the buds needing to fall more randomly...as they are now, with the little stem, every single bud is poseable so you can set them however you want.<BR/><BR/>But if I omit this small stem you'll lose that ability :-(Tallulah Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490186975270835647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-46190215630465101792009-03-11T17:35:00.000+00:002009-03-11T17:35:00.000+00:00I think it looks lovely and a heck of a lot better...I think it looks lovely and a heck of a lot better than I could create, first try or otherwise!<BR/><BR/>The middle buds could be smaller and closer together, and I think you need more of the flowers themselves...you have probably already said that to yourself. But this little plant is fantastic. <BR/><BR/>I'm applauding, not laughing. :-)MiniKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15395914933366678553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235889128352131983.post-27400542038785074152009-03-11T17:30:00.000+00:002009-03-11T17:30:00.000+00:00Jayne, the only things I can think of are that may...Jayne, the only things I can think of are that maybe the middle buds are a bit too large and the real plant seems much more full and the buds seems to fall more randomly. I think the way you did the actual flowers is brilliant. You have an amazing amount of patience!Dehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14913354060868655220noreply@blogger.com
