    Yeah, she's admitted at panels and on other videos that working with the hot stuff for so long has probably caused a bit of nerve damage. It's not that her tolerance is high, she literally doesn't feel the heat anymore.

    Your English is excellent, and your accent is very cute. I never mind subtitled videos but this was really nice, as I could pay complete attention to what you were doing in the video without having to read. Transparent worbla seems like a completely different monster than regular worbla, with less workability. I think for some things it could be really cool, but I don't think it will replace regular worbla for things like armor making or props.

    LynneBat You have to work actually completely different then with normal Worbla. It colds down really fast, burns your finger easier and loses it's shape very easy when it you heat it up again. You really need to practice to work with that material, so you also have to find a new way to add details to it.
