Huzzah! Here are all of the art pieces I’ll be putting in the art show at Daisho Con. Long live crafty geekiness. If they don’t sell in the show I’ll have them either:
1. Available on my Etsy page
2. Available at the Holiday Geek Expo here in Minneapolis in December
Sailor Moon, Attack on Titan, Black Butler, and Harley/Ivy. Yeah because I’m an all around geek like that <3
Filed under projects I should not attempt the week of a con after finishing other projects. The Black Butler mirror is making progress, all that’s left is adding the silhouette of Ciel and Sebastian. Debating on adding the title but I’m thinking no, and letting the picture speak for itself.
This entire thing was hand painted, I used dry erase marker on one side to do the lines, then painted it from the other side and wiped the marker off. It actually took longer than the Sailor Moon mirror omg why do I do these things? However, it will be done in time for Daisho, yay!
This was found in a store because it was part of what I assume was a broken cabinet set, or something? Yeah leave it to me to look at it and think, “I wanna paint that 2 days before a con for the art show whoo!”
Here it is! The progress pictures of the Sailor Moon mirror leading up to the final product at the end. Thanks so much everyone for the great response <3 I can’t wait to bring this to Daisho Con and put it in the art show, now I just need to figure out what to set the price at, lol.
This was a lot of fun to do. I’ve had this mirror sitting in my closet for years and wanted to do something with it. With the return of Sailor Moon the answer was clear :) If you click on each picture there’s comments on how each part was done.
If you’re going to Daisho, see you there!
***I’m sorry, for some reason the links don’t save right so it doesn’t go to a new window :( I blame my lack of sleep*
This post is also known as “why do I take on crazy projects the week of a con?” I plan on having a full set of progress pictures when this is completely done, but this is the progress I made today. Started with the blanket mirror, sketched Sailor Moon in dry erase marker so it could be wiped off the glass easily, then handpainted her and added stars :)
All that’s left to do is the symbols on the round parts. The inner and outer scouts (8 circles), Chibi Moon (1 circle), Sailor Starlights (1 circle because they have the same symbol), Tuxedo Mask (1 circle), and Sailor Moon’s locket (1 circle).
This will be in the art show at Daisho this weekend, along with some more nifty things, including a Black Butler mirror and a set of Attack on Titan woodburnings. Gonna finish all the crazy things *__*
Whee art!
New mirror made for our table to sell at Anime Iowa :) No witty comments really, just that it was really fun to paint, especially the face on the glass.
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 :)
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 :)
