Everybodyyyyyy!
So it seems like most folks who take commissions make stuff to sell in the interim...So I'm considering doing something like an etsy with stuff I can make.  I can make anything.  But what has kept me out of this for so long is that I don't like/buy the same stuff most people do. And what most people want will be different from that.  And also price.  Since everything's original, and I use worbla and the like, it's moderately expensive.

But irl friends helped. Suggested mardi gras masks (which would be really fun, designing) (~$30 for materials/time?).  Batarangs are easy & batman's always popular (~$8 for foam-cored worbla rangs, depending on size...). Can make other masks, like superhero masks (price depends on size/shape obviously...).

Things I want would be like the locket from Ni No Kuni. But who would be searching for that/ want to buy it?  Also that would be like $15 which I don't know how many people would want to pay for it. :/

Mrrr.  I don't wear jewelry so I wouldn't be able to really design stuff.

I guess I could also just make armor parts from games - like, gauntlets from skyrim/WoW, etc.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Hey everyone, long time no see! :D  I had a record breaking costume year in 2013, and I want to make 2014 even better! :3  So with my commissions list drawing thin I'm throwing up my ad for 3D art commissions to load up for the next year!

If you're watching the gallery, I'm trying to slowly upload Origami Cyclone & Silver Knight pictures - sorry if it floods you! D:

If you can dream it, we can build it!

its a year later than my last journal. i cant believe how fast the past year has gone either. great year.

Im moving here in two months to okc, unless gearbox picks me up down here in dallas.  have gone to so many cons, and made so many costumes & friends and such. its crazy.

still uploading stuff here as i get the time and the need arises....you can see my work now takes more time to do, so i upload far less :P but each piece is more satisfying. :)

what has changed in the past year? well, i went to like 5 conventions. Jak, one of my parakeets got an upper respiratory infection at the beginning of the year and didn't survive. Kiera is still owning singing to the radio though.

I won't be going to botcon this year due to lack of funds - though there are many people Id love to meet there this year.  so many people.

Thats about it. im a very simple person. :P
