pov a huge twewy/ntwewy nerd visits shibuya part 3

not accessible until so so late in ntwewy but always had something super cool going on when it did (irl this park was. not as big and impressive as i thought it would be)

nefastraven grinding hell (needing a ton of rare metals to get all those special cds… ugh) wish i had a better photo of those signs that said center street oops

the gang gets slapped by the nightmare reality of the game, abandoned by their new dad, forced into a new game, and then… locked inside a gate. in a cutesy loud and bright place. while they’re still trying to process so much awful stuff. (this place was highkey sensory hell but it was cool. but why is that blue anime boy named colon)

rich person store (dang anime poster decimating the whole mirror wall!!!) + plaza where i would soundsurf in a circle for like 20 minutes

ok NOW i think i’ve covered all my stuff. yippee!!! this was so fun

[scleracentipede]

❣️Apparel Drop on 28th May 1pm (GMT) ❣️

We're so excited to bring out our firsrt ever clothing items (after alot of request from ya'll on here and elsewhere which has been so sweet)! We can't wait to see ya'll in these once their availabe on our site!

Browse the stuff we already have out here.

Quick note on sustainability below cut for those interested

We have decided to ship pieces of clothing directly from our manufacturer to you to cut down on CO2 in our shipping and to help reduce waste as this will allow us to only produce pieces that people want rather than ordering a bunch of stock that may not sell.

This does mean that any clothing orders will not come with our usual freebies or in our funky scleracentipede packaging but we think it's worth it for the planet!

If you order anything else from us that isn't clothing it'll come in its usual fun and recycleable packaging with the freebies :)

If you have any questions about our sustainability or anything else please feel free to send us an ask! We'd love to talk more about the steps we take to make our art sustainable!

Cirrina: what's this one

Bayou: this is a sculpture made entirely out of urchin spines it was made by tosh monui. Every month he'd shed his old spines. He would collect them and Stick them in a ball of wax until the ball was completely covered in spineies. After he'd take the rest to make a body, he would call them mace men because they look like maces with a body. He soon started to model them after cave drawings of primitive urchin

Cirrina: that's amazing....oh what's this one. This one is beautiful

Bayou: this one is called 'home'

Cirrina: it's a beautiful landscape....who is by?.......

WIP: Gomp's Robe

I haven't shared any WIPs in a while, so here's Gromph's gray archmage robe!

This one is a prototype and will be my own personal plush, so I glued the accent ribbon on instead of sewing it. It's not as noticeable in person, but definitely shows in the photo. That said I might stick with gluing them, but use a metallic glue stick instead of the clear ones to add a few extra visual effects, since it's a little too thin to sew.

I have a few more little accents I'd like to add, like embroidered runes, but I'm not sure how well my glow thread will show up on this fabric D:

[byanyan]

thinkin about byan's lil etsy shop... them using everything they're learning in their fashion design classes (as well as all the knowledge they had prior, of course) to make cute lil pieces and accessories to sell so they can help contribute to rent and bills... everything is handmade and they only make like one or two of each item so it's all pretty unique, although they have been known to make a few extra clothing pieces in different sizes when people message them asking if it's possible. they also end up taking the odd commission when someone reaches out, but a number of those have fallen apart when byan's gotten frustrated with the customer being too picky or specific or demanding. ultimately though, they're pretty successful and make some decent money off of it! the amount of work that goes into the shop, especially while they're also going to classes and keeping up with assignments, means they aren't making as many clothes for themself throughout college, which does annoy them a little, but overall... they do still enjoy it, so it's not the biggest sacrifice to make.

I kind of want to try making mead or ambrosia 👀

Obviously not right now because I have Shit To Do; but maybe during the summer after I’ve moved
