Today, my boyfriend and I went to Little Tokyo, up in LA, and I got a couple more model kits, a LOT of origami paper, and a new wig for a costume I'm doing in August. I will be streaming the building of the models.
|
That sounds fun. What kind of costume is it?
|
A human version of a Transformers character.
|
I hope you will take pics when you are done. I am interested to see that.
|
it's mainly just a dress I have, plus a wig, some contacts, and some work with foam and resin for a prop.
|
Stupid cat is almost done! (In pics, tail isn't on, but in reality, it is I jist didn't take pics after attaching.) Just needs eyes sewn on!

KITTY OVO
|
that's adorable!
|
Just waiting to hesr back from the person on the correct eye color. In the pic I have they look like a light gold color, but I know lighting can effect the color appearance sometimes.
|
It looks so soft <3
|
It's not quite as soft as I hoped it would be, but it's pretty soft.
|
Still looks cuddly. Do they plan on it being a sit on the shelf sort of item or a comfort item?
|
I don't know. I'd make it the same either way, so I didn't ask. As the woman ordering it was a bit older (I'd estimate age in the 50's), I'd guess shelf decor, but who knows?
|
I have a bunch of stuff to embroider with now. :3 and a drop spindle with roving, and a couple nalbinding nals(needles). so I've quite the score.
|
That's such an adorable cat! :D
I've been meaning to get back into sewing. My machine has been finicky and honestly, I don't have the patience nor attention span to try to figure out what's wrong with it. I used to sew everything by hand before the machine and I think I did better by hand than the stitching that my machine does! I've got some cloth pads I'm going to sew soon! Hopefully when I can afford some nice flannel and Terry cloth. I find sewing by hand to be pretty relaxing. (So long as I have no deadline!) I sewed my first cloth pads myself when I was 16. :D |
Mine likes to whine when I use it for the first time in a while, but once it's done it tends to run smoothly
|
Now that the award scroll has been given out I can show you guys. I chickened out and had my husband do the illumination because mine is crap quality.
|
Oooohhh....that's pretty!
|
The illumination really makes it.
|
oooh that's awesome!
|
working on knitting up a dice bag for my entire collection.
|
Is that going to have to be a fairly big bag?
|
It is. I have 34 individual sets consisting of 7 dice each, two sets of 10 d10s, a set of Vampire: The Masquerade dice, three random d20s I got somewhere, a d100, and a crapton of unique d6s (in other words: holiday edition/convention edition d6s commemorating an event/holiday).
|
I'm impressed that you know basically the exact number.
|
I had to count them so I'd know how many pouches to make and in what sizes.
|
That's fair. I used to just use a half a pillowcase that I put a drawstring in, but recently a friend crocheted me a lovely pouch.
|
I have a full set plus one extra
|
I have never bothered to count mine, but I know I have 20+ sets plus a bunch extra from various places.
|
i have one full set, plus an extra d4, d10 and d20
|
|
ok, i actually thought about the dice i have.
i have the random d4, d10 and d20. i have a clear set, minus a d10 i have a clear purple set, minus a d10 i have 2 d10 that go together (one black marbley the other white marbley) ^^these make up two sets then, but i tend to think of them as one. *shrug* the random d4, d10 and d20 actually fit into necklaces, the one with the d20 i got at a pride day faire, and i made the other two for the d4 and d10 (they look like they go together) i always had them with me back in november when i was working on my NaNo, in case i needed to figure something out. :) |
I have...I think 5 sets of dice? I bought them for....some reason I can't remember. I was just gonna get 1 set, but tbh it was actually about the same cost to get the set of 5 than to just get 1 set.
I don't actually have a use for them irl, but maybe I should use them for craft project decision making. XD |
I have a goal to have a dice collection that rivals Laura Bailey's.
|
I don't know who that is....but I believe in you, you can do it!
|
She's a voice actress who also plays D&D on Critical Role. She's married to Travis Willingham, and they have a son named Ronin. She also has a HUGE dice collection, and brings about half of it with her to D&D on Thursdays (Critical Role is on Thursdays at 7pm GMT -8). The pink dice bag is bigger than my head.
|
I mean...who she's married to and children is irrelevant to me, but that's good to know I guess?
XD Ah, critical role. I have heard it, but never watched? Listened? to it. |
There's an episode tomorrow night, and you can catch up on past episodes on Youtube or on their podcast. The show does fundraising for charities at various points in the year. 826LA, Operation: Supply Drop, stuff like that.
|
I'll have to look into them.
|
Critical roll go in trouble recently for doin a Wendys commercial and a whole module for them. Since Wendys has appalling labor practices it landed them in hot water with a lot of their fans.
|
I never worked in fast food,
But I always kinda assumed most fast food places treated their workers poorly and had them work in poor conditions. :( |
