The Inner Workings of a Chibi.

Making progress on the next wineglass.  I still have to paint the base in the design as this one that I did for the first wineglass, “The Fool.” (http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3jx50xQ7y1rt1zjto1_500.jpg)

This one is actually taking longer than planned, at first glance I thought the design wasn’t too complicated, but as I started painting it I realized that wasn’t the case.  Glass paint is pretty thick, so I ended up doing the eyes like… twice, because I didn’t like how they looked the first time.  But I think I got it now  :)  

Which one should I try next, I wonder?  I was going to try “The Hanged Man” I think.  I really wish I could do the whole Investigation Team, but looking at “The Chariot” is a bit terrifying.  

This glass will be available for purchase when it’s done at our shop with “The Fool” (http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop) and just like the other glasses, it’s completely usable and washable.  

Oh, by the way, ignore the geekery behind the glass (TV, Xbox, wii, there’s a PS3 somewhere, and the display case of Disney things  ^^;;;)

What am I doing?!  Now I’m pairing personas together along with their masters?  Well, if this is the road we’re going down, let’s just do it!  

I thought it might be cool (maybe?) to show progress pictures of the things I make, sort of a before and after.  Starting with two new coasters of my OTP, Kanji and Naoto!  Before I burn something, I sketch it on the wood first, then burn over the lines (and sometimes paint parts, too, still deciding on that for these two).  

In the first heart-shaped coaster is Kanji and Naoto kissing.  I don’t really draw kissing (in fact, this might be my first time) so I thought I’d give it a shot.  The second is of their personas, Take-Mikazuchi and Sukuna Hikona, with Sukuna Hikona kissing Take-Makazuchi on his cheek (possibly might make the awesome, big persona blush).

Lately I’ve been doing a LOT of Persona 4 things.  I’m trying NOT to, because I need to make a variety of things for our table at Anime Iowa (and our Etsy shop in general) but I can’t help myself!  I’ll post more things tomorrow, probably, including the Magician glass progress  ^^

Yep, have to make a mirror or something, it must happen.

my heart exploded

always reblog red pandas

*gasp*  Red Panda!!!

You know you have the perfect mate when…

… she decides to get Kanji and Naoto cake toppers custom ordered for your birthday because they’re your OTP.  And also finds a place to make a Teddie cake made out of cupcakes.  My birthday isn’t until July, but she started looking into things early to be sure  :)  

Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazztastic!

“SOMEONE TOLD ME I NEEDED TO USE THE STORE’S SEAMSTRESS AND I LIVE 40 MILES AWAY AND CAN I PAY BY CREDIT CARD” “Yes, you can pay by credit card over the phone.” “I’M REALLY UPSET ABOUT THE SEAMSTRESS” “I understand, Ma’am… whoever told you that you needed to use our seamstress was mistaken. We do referrals.” “WELL I WAS TOLD” “Yes I know. How about you give me the card number and we take care of this first?” “Okay.” (gives card number.) “And the confirmation code on the back?” “I DON’T KNOW IT IT STARTS WITH A 3, THE REST IS ALL SCRATCHED OFF.”

Ma’am

Ma’am you are as dumb as a box of hair

kindly get out of my life

Sooooooo many stories with THIS, but here’s the most recent:

Customer: I know you guys are probably sold out, so where can I find a Diablo 3 colletor’s edition?  

Customer:  What are the chances of someone cancelling there collector’s edition so I can buy it?

Customer:  Can you check other stores to see if they have a collector’s edition?

Customer:  What do you mean you don’t have any?

Customer:  Are you really sold out?

Customer:  How many did you have?

Customer:  Do you have any extras?

Customer:  It’s been so many years you’d think they’d make enough.

Customer:  Can you call your other locations to see if they have any collector’s editions.

Customer:  What was in the collectors?  Just curious, I know you’re sold out and I don’t want it… oh really, all of that?  That does sound good, can I buy it?

*sighs*

*looks at picture of long-haired Naoto again*

*feels good about things*

Of muses and disliking them

Oh sure, the Magician will be easy to paint, no problem, says the muses.  

LIARS!  >.<  

By the way, says the muses, you should take that big block of wood you have and do a woodburning of the end of the second opening to Persona 4, you know, when everyone is standing on the TVs.  It’ll be fun!  

FUCKING LIARS!!!  >.<  

Well you should definitely do something with new, older Naoto on it, they say.  And as soon as they mention her name I’m like, “YES!”  I’m so easy  -_-

Wow

Uh… seeing since the wineglass here has the most hits I’ve had on tumblr (http://brichibi.tumblr.com/post/22443320060/i-suppose-this-works-for-shin-megami-tensei-in) I should go ahead and make more.  Seriously guys, thank you so much!  I was honestly just messing around with an idea and it seems to have worked out great  :)  

This item (and others) are available on my Etsy page, and requests can be made (http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop) I think I’m going to try and do the Magician next ^^

I’m feeling a bit Wicked today (see what I did there?  Hahaha… ha… yeah…)  Anyhow, these are the things I’ve made from “Wicked,” because I’m in love with the cover.  The first is a mirror.  The mirror is a dark brown with parts painted green, then the face is painted on the glass.  The second is a new item that’s actually available for purchase!  It’s a wineglass :)  As always with glass things (and my things in general) it’s completely usable, with a protective gel on it so it can be washed.

Be sure to check out the shop for other things available, or to request things: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop on the shop is also my partner’s adorable plushies and other things, like hats ^^

And now for something less political and more, well… me  ^^ the end of the video is the best!
