ACEN report thus far
1. I’m apparently a gorgeous Princess Tiana and got my picture taken more times than I thought I would. This led to me getting lots of free swag, from keychains to ice cream. Also got recognized by non con-goers who were driving around and got my picture taken from someone’s car window. Also, I caused quite a few people to squee in delight. I consider this a win.
2. My woodburning is apparently awesome, and one person expressed interest in hooking up in regards to an upcoming project he has while another expressed interest in getting an entire coffee table woodburned.
3. Our table neighbors have an amazing webcomic called “Grave Impressions,” a 1940s yaoi comic that not only features older men, but is historically accurate to the time (as in, the characters use the same lingo from that time period, their clothes are accurate and everything). They also do amazing watercolor fanart, so we commissioned them do to some of our characters from “Hunters: Seeking the Storyteller” and if that goes well we will commission more. I will post pictures of the commissioned work on my writing blog.
4. Old 1980s kung fu soap operas are gold.
5. Yaya Han is the nicest person ever :)
6. Kalafina gives an amazing concert and are also adorable as they attempt to speak English to thank everyone for coming.
7. The traffic is still just as insane.
8. HOMG NAOTO SHIROGANE FIGURE LESS THAN $100!!!
9. Kanji and Naoto is everyone’s OTP at the con. My headcanons bring joy to people who read them. And they also bring me free stickers of Kanji dressed like a girl and an adorable Kanji keychain (I swear I got more free swag at this con than any other con).
10. Somehow I gained more followers, like… 5. I don’t even remember the cards having my tumblr on it, but… hi new followers :)
I think that’s everything so far?
You guys one of the other artists setting up had a Kanji and Naoto print. I’m not sayin’ I pounced her like a hungry lioness who craves the pure subsistence of her OTP, I’m just sayin’ that I now have a Kanji and Naoto print to add to my Persona collection :)
All done and ready for ACEN! Please feel free to come by our table if you’re at the con this weekend :) We take custom orders on everything at our table, so if there’s something specific you want, feel free to let us know.
Hi guys! So this is why I’ve been so scarce on Tumblr lately (that and spending time with my dad). We’re getting ready for Anime Central this weekend and have been working like crazy. This isn’t all of the coasters I’ve finished, but it’s the most recent ones.
If you’re going to ACEN, be sure to come look for me! Sewn Together Reflections, booth #41 :) We’ll also be taking commissions on everything offered at our table, so if there’s something in particular that you want, just let us know.
Two more clocks ready for Anime Central :) How about some Pinkie Pie with your TMNT? Two childhood franchises that got awesome reboots ^^
Be sure to check out our Facebook page for more up to date progress pictures on the things we’re making!
So I’ve never posted an artist alley map to show where our table is before, but Anime Central is HUGE, so I think I should. This is the biggest con we’ve done so we're super stressed and never OMG pretty excited. Our table offers clocks, woodburnings, mini plushies, hats, and all sorts of things. This is where we’ll be in case you’re going to ACEN and want to swing by for purchases, ordering things, or just big smiles and hugs ^^
You can check out our progress pics on our Facebook page along with some finished items so you can get a hint of what you’ll see at the convention.
See you guys there :)
Progress picture of yet another insane project I shouldn’t be doing, but am doing, for a con. Anime Central is next weekend, but I’m still determined to get this done. This will be a big woodburning of the MCs of Persona 3 and Persona 4 (Souji/Yu/Minato/Makoto). Still not finished shading, but I only work on it before work in the morning ^^
Anime Central, why are you so soon?! More importantly, why am I so insane with woodburning projects?
Two more clocks done for Anime Central! This must be what it means to be on a roll?
First, there’s the DBZ clock. The outside edge is painted to look like the dragon, with six dragon balls inside and the 4-star ball on the second hand, so it goes around the clock (thank you DBZ abridged for continuously reminding me about how much I love this series). The second clock is Fluttershy, done in an outline style, with her cutie mark on the side. She’s the pony that gets asked about the most as far as pony clocks go, but I never remember to make one. Now I did, yay!
This brings the clock total up to nine for the table. I hope to surpass that number by the time the weekend is here and we head out for Chicago (going to stay with my dad before the con ^^)
*loud screams of joy* I FINISHED IT! I FINISHED THE SET! I finished it for Anime Detour and it got cleaned out. I won’t have the whole set for Anime Central, but I will have some, and if you’re going to the con you can order some from me to have shipped to you :)
ALL OF THE ARCANA INCLUDING THE EXTRAS IN GOLDEN! I DID IT! OMG!
