The Inner Workings of a Chibi.

Another clock finished (actually, it was finished before I went to L.A., but I didn’t get a change to put it together until now).  This time it’s the Yasogami High pin.  I tried to make the side of the clock look like their uniform collars.  

I also want to do one for Persona 3  :)  

This clock will be posted on the Etsy store for sale soon, of course you can just send me a message on here, too.  Check out the store if you haven’t already: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop

Progress picture of an upcoming clock that should be finished soon. Operation, “Make a lot of stuff for Anime Iowa,” is officially underway :) So this is what the painted face of one of my clocks looks like before I put it inside the clock.
The idea...

Progress picture of an upcoming clock that should be finished soon.  Operation, “Make a lot of stuff for Anime Iowa,” is officially underway  :)  So this is what the painted face of one of my clocks looks like before I put it inside the clock.

The idea is to paint the edge of the clock like the collar to the school uniform, yeah, that gray part with the little black parts that, I swear, look like Space Invaders  ^^;;;

New My Little Pony clocks!  These two were commissioned recently and are all done :)  You too can own your very own pony clock, check out my shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop The pony face is on the inside of the clock with the cutie mark on the side  ^^

She is the one named Sailor Moon!  Wineglass  :)  Newest glass is all done!  Be sure to check out more geeky things at my shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop

As always, all glasses are dishwasher safe so they can be used and washed.

Finally finished the next one!  The Magician wineglass now stands next to The Fool ready to take a mortal blow.  I’m not sure which one to make next, but I suddenly find myself needing to get more wineglasses as I keep making things for Anime Iowa (and for our shop in general)  I sort of want to try The Emperor because my love for Kanji is strong but I also like the design of the Hanged Man.  I WILL do Fortune… someday, that design still sort of scares me to try and paint on a glass  ^^;;;

As always, check out the shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop The Magician isn’t posted yet because I just finished it, but it will be soon  :)

Urm… so I have 32 followers, didn’t expect that at all, thanks everyone!  Here, have some Joker stuffs because… uh… Joker!

As always, here’s the shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop  I’d love to make more Joker things since they always end up looking so diabolical :)  Glasses are dishwasher safe.

Just one this morning, of THAT logo woodburned onto a coaster. I swear, this logo… it’s going to be the death of me but I can’t seem to NOT make things without it on there because I’m so obsessed. One day, I’ll probably make an elaborate wineglass...

Just one this morning, of THAT logo woodburned onto a coaster.  I swear, this logo… it’s going to be the death of me but I can’t seem to NOT make things without it on there because I’m so obsessed.  One day, I’ll probably make an elaborate wineglass then, as I’m painting, curse myself for even trying it  >.<

Anyhow, I wanted to do it in white, because woodburning doesn’t show up too well on black.  And the “Shin Megami Tensei” part is burned around the edge, too.

As always, coasters are always safe to use.  Check out the shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop

This week I need to get back to working on things before going to L.A. for E3, so expect more pictures soon!  (I hope)

Three Grell coasters I’ve made.  The first two are part of the “Born This Way” series I have going, which can be seen here:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/99962739/born-this-way-custom-coaster-you-pick  and the last one is actually the very first Grell coaster I made, before I discovered the wonders of red paint.  I mean… why wouldn't I want to splash something Grell related in red  :)

Everything I make can be commissioned, you can send me a note here or check out the store linked above.  The coasters have a protective coating on them to make them safe to use.

Shadow coasters!  Shadow Kanji and Shadow Naoto are, by far, my two favorite shadows in Persona 4.  Not just because of my feelings for the two characters, but because of how interesting I thought both of them were.  

Shadow Kanji’s coaster actually says, “Born this Way, so GET BENT,” because it’s part of my “Born This Way” set seen here:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/99962739/born-this-way-custom-coaster-you-pick on top of the whole “thug with a soft spot” the whole sexuality thing was thrown in there, too, which just added an entirely different, and interesting, dynamic.  I thought it was really powerful when his shadow was like, “I just want to be accepted." 

With Shadow Naoto, I really, really like how the anime did that whole scene.  That shadow seemed to get really uncomfortably close and pretty much drove Naoto to break down, which I loved, because that’s what the shadows are supposed to do, right?  Force you to face something you don’t want to admit to.  Not to mention that she had to face her shadow alone (everyone else was outside the door, watching from T.V. screens, which added to the, "I don’t want to be alone,” vibe)

And thus, coasters  :)  

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  ^^;;;)
