Book progress! The cover is done, then the inside is halfway done. The second picture is the top part of the open book, then the other picture will be the third picture :)
Not staying up like a crazy person tonight to work on things, but here’s another finished product. Because, you know, who doesn’t love Yukiko like this right?
37 coasters burned so far, only… um… a bunch more to go *sigh* Stop glaring at me, Adachi, you’ll get burned soon enough.
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?
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?
I always have to make something Utena for our table when we go to conventions, because it’s just that awesome and needs as much love as possible. Hopefully, I get the mirror done in time, for now, enjoy a heart-shaped coaster :)
Naoto coaster done :) (of course, I had this all sketched out before Persona 4 Golden had that whole epilogue thing, but I still like how novel Naoto looks). It might be hard to see around the edge, but it says, “I am a woman, and a detective,” because for some reason there’s this idea going around that now that Naoto seems comfortable with being a woman (be it the novel or the Golden epilogue), that makes her less bad ass. Thinking that way just proves her original point of thinking she needed to be a man to get any respect. Why are we assuming she’s suddenly not as cool because she accepts herself? Come on, this is the same Naoto who helped put the pieces together for Namatame, who called Adachi out for his crimes, and who stood with us against Izanami, and that was all AFTER the big reveal. At what point did she become less bad ass? And no, pointing out her being flustered over getting on stage in a swimsuit or getting in a hot springs doesn’t count, being shy does not make a person less awesome.
And no, I’m absolutely not against the idea of Naoto being trans, I already spoke my piece about that in which I don’t really care how you interpret her (or him), Naoto is amazing no matter what. The point of the coaster is to say hey, the girl interpretation of Naoto Shirogane does not ruin her awesome status for me. She can still kick ass, still does, and still will.
Um… now that that rambling is done… enjoy the coaster?
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” :)
The fanciest L that ever did L. I found these coasters at the craft store and wanted to see if I could make L even fancier than it already is. This is what I came up with. Woodburning fancy designs are difficult with the curves and my extreme pickiness fun ^^;;;
Like all the other coasters I’ve been posting, these will be at Anime Iowa this year for sale, yay! Just a few more weeks not enough time not enough time NOT ENOUGH TIME!!! I can’t wait :)
Urm… yeah, uh… cross-dressing Kanji coaster! I don’t know where I got the idea of just having the hair and scar, but then I felt it was missing something so… get bent? I dunno, I’m rather fond of crossdressing Kanji (or any form of Kanji, really…) so… ta da? And it’s heart-shaped because… o.k. you know what, I don’t need a reason, please to be getting bent!
Finished the Alexander and Waver coaster finally my feelings are still a puddle over the two of them. I decided to post some more detailed pictures, because I kind of like how it turned out (which is rare because I’m always so critical). Everything is woodburned, even Alexander, though he is really, really lightly burned to make him look… well… please excuse me *runs off bawling*
A-anyway, made for Anime Iowa, just one of about a zillion things I’m trying to finish. Again, if you’re going to that con, check out our table!
