*exhausted breath*  O.K.  This is the last progress picture, the next picture will have ALL OF THEM WOODBURNED!  But this is ALL of the tarot cards in the arcana for Persona 3 and Persona 4.  This includes the extras, like Adachi for example and the face on the back of the cards.  There are only 8 more left to burn  *happy dance*

This whole set will be at Anime Detour in a couple of weeks  :)

So I don’t know all the intricacies of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (have only seen a few episodes) but I got a commission for a Pinkamena clock.  The first time I heard about this version of Pinkie Pie was at Anime Detour last year, when someone commissioned me for a coaster or a wooden button (I don’t remember which) and just called it “The Pinkie Pie with straight hair.”  

This newest commission, the request was to make it look, well…. disturbing, lol.

It’s not finished, but I wanted to post a progress pic.  I still have to do the eyes, obviously, but I had this moment where I woke up this morning, went to my computer, and saw this like, “Oh shit… I actually drew something like this?!  Wow…”

Progress picture time!  (again)  When going to the fabric store, I discovered wooden books on clearance.  I’ve never seen them since then, and I debated with myself on what to put on them.  After seeing the first episode of My Little Pony, I knew :)

The outside is woodburned (still need to finish it) and the inside was going to be colored pencil, but I’m going to paint it instead (but woodburn the pony inside).  Hopefully should be done tonight  ^^

I’m not sure what to sell it as, though.  Any thoughts?  I was thinking like a jewelry box or something?

Progress pictures of the Jack Frost mirror I’m making.  I originally was going to leave it at the four woodburned ones, but after realizing that there’s many more Jacks out there, I thought they all needed love.

The only ones I didn’t include are the ones in Soul Hackers, who look like the standard Jack Frost but are just different colors, which wouldn’t really work on a woodburning since I’m not going to paint it.  

Debating on either painting the Shin Megami logo on the glass, or painting “HEE HOO” on it  ^^  Leaning more towards “Hee Hoo”  :)

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  :)

Another mirror in progress before I go back and finish Adachi.  This idea sprung in my head in the middle of being half awake  ^^;;;  The lines on the mirror that create the grid had to be drawn on by me first so I could paint the squares as close to perfect as I could.  Can you guess what it is so far?

I told myself I would start woodburning things this month since Anime Iowa is in a few weeks, but there’s still so many things I want to sketch out  >.<  However, with the heat index being in the triple digits tomorrow, I’ll definitely be staying INSIDE and working on things  :)  

… I still haven’t made a single MLP clock >.<  Need to get on that, so no more Persona stuffs!  … uh… after the mirror is done  ^^;;;  

Progress picture number two (because for some strange reason I actually like how something I’m making is turning out).  I still need to paint his eyes yellow, and I think I’m going to try and make the red parts of Magatsu Inaba a bit… I dunno the word for it, like, kinda fuzzy?  Static like?  I’ll probably have it finished when I come home from work, then I need to start doing Adachi on the second mirror to match  :)  is a smiley face really appropriate for this?! 

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 :)

Sketching a button for Shadow! Adachi that says “Cabbage Patch” and a crossdressing! Kanji one that says, “Marilyn.”  

Fucks given = Still Zero

Also, my partner found an old mirror I had sketched that was supposed to be Izanagi, but I had messed it up and tried to erase it but the pencil was too dark.  So she says, “Turn it into Adachi’s persona,” and I go, “No… o.k. yes.”  Pictures soon!

Randomly… I need to move onto another series to make, seriously, or the whole Anime Iowa table we have is going to be Persona Con 2012.
