Progress pictures of woodburnings that will be available for Anime Central. First is Death the Kid from Soul Eater as a big woodburning piece.  The second is two Game of Thrones coasters, I hope to have all of the houses done for Anime Central along with the Hunger Games, too.  Last, but not least, is Superman, since I’ve kind of been geeking out over him lately thanks to Injustice and the upcoming “Man of Steel.” Batman has always been my favorite, but lately…

For Anime Central I’m trying to have as much woodburnings as I can, but Detour kind of wiped me out since I sold over 70 coasters out of the 100 I had.  We’ll see how this goes  :)

GUYS OMG YOU DON’T EVEN OMG OMG OMG!  HE TURNED OUT SO CUTE!  LOOK AT HIM OMG!  PONYSONA COMMUNITY REJOICE PRAISE JIRAIYA!  He’s my favorite so far, just TOO CUTE!  *hugs him*  Mine mine mine mine mine!  (but she can make more  ^^)

OMG!  Last woodburning done before the weekend!  Cowboy Bebop, man, where do I begin?  Despite how many times Cartoon Network has played this (are they still playing it?) I still have so much love for this series.  I thought a cool, silhouette of Faye Valentine would be great for a last big woodburning for Anime Detour.  If I magically have time left in the next two weeks I might do another big burning, but I doubt that I will, so Faye is the last one for this con  :)

Picture one:  All finished!  White smoke and all!

Picture two:  Beginning sketch

Picture three:  Woodburned, minus white smoke.

See you in space, cowboy!  Or rather, see you at Anime Detour  ^^

Newest woodburning done!  My wifey brought it to my attention that I should make a couple of big ones for the table to sell since Sebastian turned out so nice. First up is Evangelion. With 3.0 being a thing I figured it would be a good idea :)

Picture one: Starting sketch
Picture two: Sketch with parts shaded for burning
Picture three: Burning in the dark parts, including the entire left side
Picture four: Now with shading ^^

This took… a whole day, just like Sebastian did :) One more big woodburning to go then back to burning the coasters that are left.

Next week: painting! Clocks, glasses, mirrors, ect.

Week after: PANICKING because ANIME DETOUR!

Hey guys!  Remember this crazy project?  It’s almost done!  I’m sketching the very last tarot card right now!  I hope to have the entire set done by the end of the week  :)  This set includes the arcana in Arena, in just… well, everything Persona 3 and Persona 4  ^^  

I’m debating on whether or not I should have one last card with the image that’s on the back of the cards.  This one right here.  

The entire set will be at Anime Detour in a few weeks.  I think, maaaaybe, whatever sells I want to try and remake for Anime Central.  I might change my mind since this entire project has been insane  ^^;;  The coasters can be purchased individually since I don’t expect anyone to be crazy enough to buy all of them.

Thoughts on having the face as a card to go with it?  Thoughts on the project as a whole?

Thanks to the positive response over the coaster I did I thought, “What goes best with a coaster?  A glass!”  I use to do glass painting a lot, but then the glass paint I used to use was discontinued, so I stopped.  Then, a friend got me some glass stuff for my birthday last year, but the glasses kinda sat around because I couldn’t come up with any ideas for them.

Then Rise of the Guardians came out.

Then I discovered new glass paint.

I’m still testing it out, really, since I’ve never baked it on there before.  So in the next two days I’ll know if it actually work/can be washed, ect.  I figured it was safe to make Guardians, because if it doesn’t work my partner will keep it.  If it does work, well, it’ll be at Anime Detour with the coaster  ^^

The glass is hand painted and I actually dipped a pencil in the paint to do the snowflakes, just to try and get the lines done properly  ^^  I hope everyone enjoys this new Rise of the Guardians glass and coaster set  :)

With Anime Detour fast approaching, it’s time to get some woodburned coasters done.  Of course, Jack Frost has made an appearance thanks to my obsession love for Rise of the Guardians  ^^  I also plan on making some sort of wine glass or goblet or something, hopefully in time for the convention to match the coaster  :)

As always, feel free to send me a note if you’re interested in a commission, or you can check out my Etsy page.

So I finished a Young Justice woodburned coaster set this evening  :)  The main cast from the first season.  This set will be at this year’s Anime Detour in a month.  It’s convention crunch time, so I’m woodburning things like crazy!  

Of course, I do take commissions as well, so feel free to send me a note or check out my Etsy store.

Guess what, guys!  My wifey is caught up enough of Naoto hat orders to offer them again!  It’s perfect for cosplay, or just to wear, or because you love Naoto so much  :)  

Please allow up to three months since the item is pretty much the most popular thing we have at our shop (though if you desperately need it sooner, send her a message to see if its doable) 

Here’s the Etsy listing for the hat:  Ta da!

Also, if you need the hat in a certain size, please let her know so she can adjust accordingly if it differs from her pattern.

Our new Frog Mario bathroom curtain!

When we moved into our house, I agreed with my wifey that we could turn this bathroom into an underwater Mario level.  We’re still working on the bathroom, but here’s my contribution.  This curtain is made out of tiny 1 inch squares matching the pixel design.  Took me months to make, but it’s now so incredibly worth it!

*gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasp*  LOOK AT THIS OMG!  To go with the Geeky theme of our home, there is now a PIXEL FROG SUIT MARIO CURTAIN IN OUR BATHROOM!  Snowtigra is the best wifey EVER!
