The Inner Workings of a Chibi.

2 Black Butler coasters made for Anime Iowa, which is coming up at the end of the month here.  I’ve never made anything Alois, whereas I ALWAYS make something Grell because… it’s Grell, and who wouldn’t want to make something Grell.  I also feel the need to paint Grell’s hair and glasses, because, paint everything red  :)  Also, Grell’s is a heart-shaped coaster because… yeah, Grell  ^^  

These will be at our table at this years Anime Iowa, so if you’re going to that convention come check us out!  If not, then you can always check out our shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop or here http://www.facebook.com/pages/SewnTogetherReflections/135314263255585

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.  

So…

Gonna be up for a long while woodburning and things like that.  17 coasters done so far, only… um… a lot more to go.  So, randomly, you can harass me if you want because I’m awake, or ask me things, or something I dunno?

Suddenly, I have 50 followers.  No way, guys!  That’s awesome!  I never thought I’d have more than like, 10, or something as I post my crafty things and such, so thank you!  Here’s a big post of things I’ve finished for Anime Iowa.  Well… the Mario mirror is almost done, I have to finish his other hand  ^^;;;

So we have a mix of things: Persona 4, Zelda, Mario, and even Teen Titans.  All of these were done by me and you’ve probably seen the coaster sketches I posted.  This is what the final product looks like (the coasters and mirror will have protective coating on them to make sure they can’t be damaged and stuff)  The top picture is what my house starts to look like as I make things, the coasters are sitting on top of my box of controllers, lol, otherwise they’ll overtake the kitchen table and counter (it’ll get to that point soon though, I know it will).

And another coaster done, probably the last one for today since I have to go to work now. If you’re going to Anime Iowa this year, be sure to swing by our table. We should have a lot of fun things there, including plushies, and mirrors, and clocks,...

And another coaster done, probably the last one for today since I have to go to work now.  If you’re going to Anime Iowa this year, be sure to swing by our table.  We should have a lot of fun things there, including plushies, and mirrors, and clocks, and wine glasses, and coasters, and Naoto hats, and possibly ponies?  

Randomly, is anyone going to Anime Iowa that’s on my tumblr?

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  :)

That moment when…

… you’ve sketched 26 coasters to woodburn for Anime Iowa and 10 of them are Persona 4 related.  I know that doesn’t sound like a lot, but there’s like, only one or two from other series.  Persona 4 keeps dominating.  I have got to move on!

After a few more sketches… I can stop whenever I want, I don’t have a problem!

Woodburned buttons with catchy sayings. This is a new item at the shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop This is the first set I made, I just… had to! Phoenix Wright, all the way :) You too can “Suit Up” with these snazzy buttons.

Just one this morning, of THAT logo woodburned onto a coaster. I swear, this logo… it’s going to be the death of me but I can’t seem to NOT make things without it on there because I’m so obsessed. One day, I’ll probably make an elaborate wineglass...

Just one this morning, of THAT logo woodburned onto a coaster.  I swear, this logo… it’s going to be the death of me but I can’t seem to NOT make things without it on there because I’m so obsessed.  One day, I’ll probably make an elaborate wineglass then, as I’m painting, curse myself for even trying it  >.<

Anyhow, I wanted to do it in white, because woodburning doesn’t show up too well on black.  And the “Shin Megami Tensei” part is burned around the edge, too.

As always, coasters are always safe to use.  Check out the shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop

This week I need to get back to working on things before going to L.A. for E3, so expect more pictures soon!  (I hope)

Two more Black Butler coasters, this time it’s the Undertaker’s turn.  I love him so much actually I pretty much love everyone in Black Butler o.k.?! and I wanted to do something with his normal form and then that, ahem, other form of his that’s really awesome with the kick ass scythe.  But then he had that whole thing with his face at the end of the record, and I just couldn’t help myself  ^^

So the first coaster is normal Undertaker, the second is… well, if you read the manga you know where it’s from  :)  As always, coasters are woodburned and safe to use.  You can always check out the site here for commissions and other items that are available now: http://www.etsy.com/shop/snowtigra?ref=si_shop
