commission

Here is a commission I did while we were at Fanime this past weekend.  It's an original character from a fan, it's a Emolga but with lots of fun attitude and personality!  I worked on this in the hotel room, hence the weird lighting.  I love the expression when the customer came to pick up this piece tho, a smile I will never forget :)

Unfortunately we had to leave Fanime early.  I'm sorry if anyone missed our table.  There were a lot of problems in this con that we found that's unfair and disorganized.

Anyways, time to move on and get ready for the next con!

Fanime goods preview

Phew, I think I finished everything on time!  
Last night I was packing until 1 AM but I think it's all good to go! yay!
Oh, and I just picked up my new prints, they will be available at the con :D  
It's going to be my first time selling large prints, I hope they go well (why do I feel so nervous?)

Tomorrow we are driving up to San Jose, I can't wait to see friends and cosplayers! it's been years since my first visit to Fanime, it's gonna be so much fun!

I'll be at table #47 and 48, please come check it out!
As usual, I have stickers to give away, new designs too :)


See you at Fanime!

Still working on Fanime stuff, and there's only one week left...O_O;;

This morning I had trouble with the printer. I thought it was dying on me, and I can not have a dying printer a week before the con, no, this is unacceptable.
I do lots of printing with it, and I still have tons of things I have to finish.  Well the good news is that I found out the printhead was clogged, and was able to clean it before it gets worse.  
Now it's working fine! :D
Phew, I'm not the most mechanical person in the world, I don't even know a thing about maintenance (like cars, what?), but today, I learned that I should take care of the machine, especially the ones I can not live without.

Mareep things

EQLA was a success! it was our first pony con and we were glad we participated in this fun event.
To me, it was an eye opening experience, it was a good crowd and everyone was very nice and friendly :)
I was really inspired by the enthusiastic fans and artists, there are so many unique idea to learn from, which means...lots things to work on! annnnd It's likely we will be doing this again next year.  Yay! time to work!! (isn't it nice to feel motivated?)

This week I'm focusing on Fanime stuff, I got some great idea from EQLA, so I'm gonna try this out.. it's a Mareep thing, hehe
Not 100% sure where I'm going with this yet, but it will be something new ;)
 
Stay tuned!

in the making part 3

Currently working on the sticker pack for EQLA next week~

I making the tags using Martha Stewart stamp set which I bought earlier this year.  It comes handy sometimes, especially when I want to achieve the stamp look (and I love the rustic, handmade things!)  even it takes longer to make, I like the stamping process so much I wish I can do this forever!

what else am I working on....oh! we know there will be quite a few bronies at the con, so we made these brony buttons, the special thing about them is that THEY ARE GLITTERY! XD
This is our first time trying glitter buttons, they look so cute!


I hope people will like them :D
