Happy 25th Birthday Final Fantasy!!! (Post 1 OF 2)
NOTE: These are the final revisions of the posters I’ve been creating since Sept. 2012. Due to tumblr’s picture limit per post, the remaining posters are in the following post.
Due to this anniversary occurring this year, one of my best childhood friends for life Max of 17 years and I got together this past summer to reflect on Final Fantasy. I fondly remember of the days when him and I first met at the back of a school bus. We found a strange bond through our talk of video games and reading video game magazines on our journey home from school. One day, I saw him reading a white book that got me curious. It was the strategy guide for Final Fantasy VII, a new game that just had come out. I was curious because the only Playstation game I had owned at the time was “Crash Bandicoot”, and I played that disc to death. The memories “Wow, this guy sure has bright, spikey hair!” and “What is that big, glowing green thing he’s facing?” immediately come to mind flipping through the pages of his guide. He showed me the game case on our walk from the bus stop to his driveway at the end of the street. “Man, that is a BIG game case! This game must be epic!” I stared in amazement. “I’m only at the beginning, but it’s pretty fun so far” Max replied.
Little did we know how much that game would impact our lives and our bond of friendship for years to come…I ended up beating Final Fantasy VII 100% complete during the ENTIRE course of my summer in Junior year of high school. That was a crowning achievement I’ll never forget.
We all made friends through Final Fantasy: we talked about all the different games as they released in game stores, we drew fan art, we made fan fictions, we watched the movies, bought the figurines, listened to the gorgeous soundtracks, and even cosplayed as the favorites who remind us just a little bit of ourselves. To think, this magnificent video game series almost never was…if if wasn’t for a little hope and faith of game creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, Final Fantasy would never have existed, and he would’ve went back to the university to continue studying electrical engineering. Thank you Hironobu Sakaguchi. Thank you Square. You gave me a best friend, and now I’m giving my appreciation through these vintage posters.

I normally make pony clocks, but I wanted to try something different :) Discord’s color scheme is all over the clock, his face painted on the inside. I decided that it would be best to mess up the numbers because… it’s Discord ^^
As always, feel free to send me a note here about clocks, or check out what we have on the shop’s website :)
New clock made and available for purchase. I had to take a crack at something else Madoka Magica after doing the Kyubey clock. The crazy colors spoke to me ^^;;;
And, as always, check out all of the other items at Sewn Together Reflections :)
Two new Grell related items made over the weekend. The first is a wooden heart plaque with Grell woodburned onto it, the eye painted with small specs of red. The heart was given to me by my friend pinkstarpirate, who knows I do woodburning and I thought I could come up with something ^^ The second picture is of a newer version to the Cheshire Cat Grell clock I usually make. To go along with the Cheshire craziness, the numbers are flipped and backwards and just odd ^^
As always, you can check out the shop here for commissions or to see what’s available. The heart is available now and the clock can be ordered here ^^
How much is that Jack Frost in the window? In the Geek Room rests this little guy, one of my favorite persona in the entire franchise (he’s so cute!) This corner of the window has him hand drawn by my lovely partner then painted by me.
We’re thinking about drawing and painting Shadow Teddie above the window, at some point. I swear these walls are going to be covered with so many things ^^;;;
And yes, those are little P4 keychains in the one picture. The wooden circles? Sketches by my good friend of Kanji and Naoto (hard to see in the picture since I was trying to get a close up of Jack Frost)
Just now getting into this series – or rather, these short clips that would make a lovely series – and I’m already in love with it. Had to make something for the local comic book convention this weekend. When I sketched it, I realized that there wasn’t much room on the wood for Batgirl, then I realized, “Paint her on the glass, duh!”
And thus, this mirror was born :)

Grell Appreciation Post! One thing I always find myself making for conventions is things for Grell. I absolutely love Grell, so I always try to have something at the table, whether it’s a mirror, or the Cheshire Cat clock, or coasters :)
As always, you can check out my website here for commissions and things like that: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop
Adventure Time! I’m pretty excited about these things, especially the clock. The clock was my first attempt at turning a box into a functional clock. With a double A battery, the hands will go around Finn and Jake, their faces side by side. You can open the top and fill it with things, too. Above that is a mirror of Finn and below is a coaster of Fionna.
I’d love to make more Adventure Time things of the other characters. As always, I do take commissions, and you can feel free to check out the site here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop There’s no Adventure Time stuff up at the moment, but you can always ask for a custom item :)
