i have like 473827482 video games to play

but you know what i’m gonna do

i’m gonna buy more video games

T-that’s not me at all, ahahahahaha… ha… *looks at Geek Room and cries*

Wow something NOT Kanji and Naoto related… for now (dun dun dunnnnn!)

That question about my gaming preferences got me thinking… I haven’t gamed in a while!  I mean yeah I beat the hell out of New Super Mario Brothers 2, have been playing Lego Batman 2 a lot, but… jeez, I haven’t bought a game in a while now.  Guess that what happens when you don’t work at the game store anymore  ^^;;;

What the heckles is even coming out besides Assassin’s Creed III and Liberation with the awesome lead female character (want to cosplay *__*)?  Is there anything else that matters?  I mean yeah, the Golden, the Wii U (which not gonna break my neck over), Lego LoTR, that new Shin Megami Tensei 4 if that even becomes a thing anytime soon, Paper Mario, but… anything else?!  I mean I’m excited for Injustice, Bioshock Infinite, and like Ni no Kuni and God of War (a little… I’m not sure about this whole prequel thing…) but… that’s not til next year.  I feel like I’m missing something. 

Halp?

This is the clock that I built.  Got the wooden M and the clock parts and put together a (hopefully) fancy clock dedicate to Super Mario Brothers.  I sketched the levels on there then burned them onto the wood.  This clock was at Geek.Kon this weekend and was purchased (thank you wonderful customer!), but you can always order another one, of anything with a letter like that, not just Mario.  The next project I think is taking a P and putting Pinkie Pie all over it  :)

That crazy mirror I started?  FINISHED!  Here is a collage of the progress, from a couple of red squares to the end product.  Man, oh man, this was a pain in the ass fun to make  :)

If Mario were Captain America, this would be his shield.  Crossover madness!  Got this idea really, really early in the morning (or really late in the evening, whichever you prefer).  It’ll be for sale at Anime Iowa in a couple of weeks.  I’m trying to think of other random superhero crossovers like this, any thoughts?  I’m already doing Green Lantern/Yoshi next, any more?

A sort of close of picture from the massive post I made of coasters.  Playing with shading with a woodburner is fun  :)  I also feel the need to paint Naoto’s hat no matter what I’m doing for her, I don’t know why  ^^;;;

Sadly I didn’t get to the entire team, but I do have two more on the way: Adachi and Yukiko (with those weird glasses).  It’s convention crunch time, so yeah, this blog is going to be full of random things I’ll be selling at Anime Iowa.  

Here’s what’s coming out in the gaming world this month.  I’m super stoked about Kingdom Hearts, which I got to play at E3 and it was really, really fun :)  I actually had a regular customer at the store/friend come in and PAY for my copy of the game for my birthday  O.O  

Making progress!  Anime Iowa is soon so things need to be woodburned and ready to sell.  First up is – surprise surprise – Persona things!  The first coaster is of Minato and Thanatos, the second is of Naoto.  Expect much, muuuuuch more Persona things being posted soon.  This is going to be like a craft blog for the rest of the month  :)

Guys.  Guys!  What is this?!  I just… oh my god!  It’s Marvel vs. Capcom, with 3 studios, and… adorable chibi versions of characters beating the crap out of things.  Please let this come out in the U.S. and NOT be like Shonen Jump All-stars and never ever come out.  I just… look at all the games in it!

Posting progress pictures as I go just because  :)  As I said before, I had to sketch the grid on the mirror with pencil, but now I’m painting in the pieces to create an 8-bit mario  :)  It’s more than halfway done now, I have to do the overalls and maybe touch up the red a bit more (the mirror is finished wood, so it takes a couple of coats of paint to get it to really stand out).  

In random news I haven’t woodburned anything all day  >.<  Fortunately, I close tomorrow, so I should have time  :)
