The Inner Workings of a Chibi.

Progress picture!  This is the mirror that was originally meant for this complete project: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m1ymkyhHjp1rt1zjto1_1280.jpg but I had messed up Izanagi.  My partner recently found the mirror, since the picture of Izanagi was poorly erased and said, “Do Magatsu Izanagi and Adachi.”  At first I said no because I had messed up the picture so bad, but then I decided to try and fix it.

This is the progress so far.

So this is going to be two mirrors.  Magatsu Izanagi’s mirror is going to have the pattern of the sky for Magatsu Inaba.  Adachi, on the second mirror (and pushing the two mirrors together will connect their faces, like in the Souji and Izanagi burning I did above) will have yellow caution tape.  

Oh, and still looking for good pictures of the Pierrot arcana card, if I can find it, I want to paint it on the glass of one of the mirrors.  If I can’t, I might just paint the back of the card.

I’ll post the completed picture when do.  It’ll be available at Anime Iowa in about a month :)

ARGH!  That awkward moment when you make something and you feel like you should do more to it but you can’t decide what or if it needs more at all and you’re being picky because it’s so simple >.<  My lovely partner says to leave it, because adding more would be too much, but when I look at it I just want to paint Teddie’s face on the base of the glass but then when I picture the end result it feels like it would be too much.  Why does my brain do these things!  

Suggestions?

This one isn’t done yet.  I want to write in fancy writing “Funtom,” I think, but the main part of the glass is done  :)  All the wineglasses are dishwasher safe so are completely usable, so you can feel as wealthy as Lord Phantomhive himself as you sip on your glorious drinks :)

As always, check out the shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop the glass isn’t posted yet, but it will be soon! (or just bug me on here if you’re interesting in it)

Best accident ever.  True story.  I got a commission for Princess Mononoke wineglasses of the tree spirits and I had them painted on the glasses themselves… then they got broken (the box fell, something, I don’t even remember).  The only thing that survived was the base of the glass.  At the time, these were much rounder wineglasses and the store I got them from didn’t have them anymore.

They had this style instead.

I immediately fell in love with this style and thought, “What if I painted the tree at the bottom of the glass and made the stem brown?”  I sent the person who ordered them a picture and she loved them.  

So yeah, best accident ever.

As always, here’s a link to the shop: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop check it out for all of your random dishware coaster clock geeky needs  :)

I suppose this works for Shin Megami Tensei in general, but this was inspired by Persona in particular.  This also works for people into tarot as a whole  :)  This is the first of what will probably be many wineglasses since I also want to do something for The Magician, Judgment, and some other ones (I really want to do Fortune but I don’t know if I can ^^;;;)  

The wineglass represents The Fool.  It is hand painted then there’s a protective gel on it that makes it safe for use.  It can also be washed.  This glass in particular is available for purchase right now so if you’re interested, feel free to let me know  :)

Oh, and also, thank you for all of the hits on the Shin Megami Tensei clocks!

Oh snap

I think I may have figured out how to make Persona 4 arcana wine glasses  O.O  Making things ahead of time for cons = fun  :)

As a friend of mine recently said to me and my partner, “I’ve seen some geeky rooms in my day, but never one like this from two girls.”  My partner and I bought a house last August and when we saw we have two extra bedrooms on the first floor we knew what to do.  One will be my office, for writing and art and things, and the second is… well, this  :)

Everything is hand drawn and painted by me and my partner.  She did the Sonic painting inside the closet and the Tetris on the side of it (which she decided to do a messed up game of Tetris instead of a perfect one since “this is what happens to me when I play).  She also painted Jack Frost on the side of the window, and we’re going to paint shadow Teddie above it since he looks so cool.  Meanwhile, I did the Konami code above the door, the Portal painting with Wheatley, the Starfox ship, and Katamari (she helped with the portal and Wheatley) in space, and the pac-man around the shelves.  The TMNT picture above the portal was also made by me.

Our ceiling is black, which we plan to paint a portal on the moon once we get the chance.  Portal 2 fans will know why  :)  We also are going to paint a MegaMan level above one of the windows because we got an awesome 2D MegaMan item from Anime Milwaukee.  Also thinking about getting the King of all Cosmos on the ceiling, too.

All of the figures, video games, manga, anime, blu rays, standees, and everything is a combination of all of our things.  Once we got out of the apartment we had much more room to spread things out.  There’s more figures in our living room, more of the "fancier” or high quality ones, like a lot of our comic book figures and such.  The living room is also where all of the game systems are (but we’re trying to figure out how to make room in the Geek Room – which this room is called – for the Magnovox Odyssey my dad just straight up GAVE me)

The Geek Room does NOT have all of our figures, there’s still some randomly in boxes that we need to get out  ^^;;;  Our next project is painting the bathroom next to the Geek Room in an underwater Mario theme.  We already have the walls painted blue and all of my little Mario figures are around the sink.  

So, in conclusion, my geekery spreads across everything, clearly.  I’m lucky to have a fantastic partner who’s just as geeky as me (she’s more anime while I’m more video games, but combined it makes wonderful things like this).
