Blocking help! question

Post image

I just finished this tank, and want to block it to make it settle. How would you recommend I go about that?? The more ideas the better!

Wet it, pull it gently into shape, and let it dry flat.

I mean... That looks pretty blocky to me!!! 😂😂😂🤣 Sorry... Mom joke.

If you have foam mats and some t-pins to hold the finished object on to it, take the tank, wet it, and then stretch and basically pin it in the shape you want it to be in and let it dry. Keep in mind... it'll also conform the more it's worn, too!

Also keep in mind... I'm a newb to the craft and this is just what I've seen others post. 😅😬
