If Mario were Captain America, this would be his shield. Crossover madness! Got this idea really, really early in the morning (or really late in the evening, whichever you prefer). It’ll be for sale at Anime Iowa in a couple of weeks. I’m trying to think of other random superhero crossovers like this, any thoughts? I’m already doing Green Lantern/Yoshi next, any more?
A sort of close of picture from the massive post I made of coasters. Playing with shading with a woodburner is fun :) I also feel the need to paint Naoto’s hat no matter what I’m doing for her, I don’t know why ^^;;;
Sadly I didn’t get to the entire team, but I do have two more on the way: Adachi and Yukiko (with those weird glasses). It’s convention crunch time, so yeah, this blog is going to be full of random things I’ll be selling at Anime Iowa.
Here’s what’s coming out in the gaming world this month. I’m super stoked about Kingdom Hearts, which I got to play at E3 and it was really, really fun :) I actually had a regular customer at the store/friend come in and PAY for my copy of the game for my birthday O.O
Making progress! Anime Iowa is soon so things need to be woodburned and ready to sell. First up is – surprise surprise – Persona things! The first coaster is of Minato and Thanatos, the second is of Naoto. Expect much, muuuuuch more Persona things being posted soon. This is going to be like a craft blog for the rest of the month :)
Guys. Guys! What is this?! I just… oh my god! It’s Marvel vs. Capcom, with 3 studios, and… adorable chibi versions of characters beating the crap out of things. Please let this come out in the U.S. and NOT be like Shonen Jump All-stars and never ever come out. I just… look at all the games in it!
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 :)
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?
Persona 4 Naoto victory quote: That’s what comes with underestimating me.
Persona 4 Arena Naoto quote: That’s what comes with not knowing your place.
I don’t know why I find this interesting. Maybe my mind is thinking too much, but it seems like in P4, her quote means, “Hey, people don’t think I can hold my own, but I can,” and in P4 Arena she’s past that and is like, “Don’t try and fight me, I’ll just humiliate you if you even try.”
I dunno, it’s early, good morning!
Another review I wrote up after E3, this time it’s a hands on preview to Playstation All-Stars :) Are you excited for this one?
