A new sculpture! Finally... I feel like I never sculpt anymore since I'm always sick or have some 500 other things going on or projects to finish, but I'm trying to schedule time to do it more often this year hopefully..! Just a generic fantasy creature as usual, but did try making the eyes a little more sparkly this time.. hrmm..
#sculpture#fantasy art#fantasy creature#art#elf#lol what are the tags I should use... I still never know.. EVIL social media.. hate the idea of tagging anything ever anyway. but alas..#I also would ideally like to start selling them again and open up custom commmissions and stuff again once I can hopefully get paypal#stuff sorted out. and find like.. a good way to do things.. etc.. I did still want to sell them through auction instead of agonizing#over setting prices being afraid they're either too high or too low. So being able to just be like. Here. this is $50. or more. or less.#negotiate. the worth is whatever you feel like it is so i personally dont have to make that decision. etc. lol... But etsy doesn't let you#do auctions or like pay what you want type stuff so.. then I was thinking ebay? but idk.. ANYWAY.. I want to set things#up so I can sell stuff again hopefully. I still haven't fully recovered from the costs of when I had to take my cat to the vet and put#them down last year and etc. So it'd be good to sell a few things. perhaps.. maychance... perhamble... so on and so forthe... ANYWAY#I was going for whiter more milky sort of hair that blends in closely with the skintone but after the paint dried it seems more yellowy kin#of. which is fine. But just not exacltly like my mind vision lol..#Also it's like... wow... someone with face spots and elf ears and a half open mouth with a gap tooth and wavy hair and kind of downturned#eyes... revolutionary... never been seen before... every sculpture I have ever made surely doesnt look licherally exactly like this... LOL#but maybe it's just a style. so what. People have their motifs lol.. Im just getting back into sculpting. I shall sameface in peace. huzzah#Just like the only thing I ever carve out of avocado pits anymore is eyes. Because that's just whats fun to do. I'm going to accumulate lik#25 similar avocado eyes and have nothing to do with them. I was thinking of stringing some together into a necklace of eyes or something li#like that but.. hrmm... ANYWAY.. Love to do the same things repetitively. :3c

every day when i wake up i say to myself “dykeyuu you are not purchasing any sanrio merchandise today” but then i find the deal of the century……..
#like. i only buy it if i know for sure ill NEVER find it at that price again#2007 corduroy keroppi that literally doesn’t exist on the internet? $16#i came across it by chance and it took me hours to find evidence that anyone else had ever owned one#found a chococat one too from the same series but it’s pricier…#but it’s the only one listed anywhere that i can find so. perhaps#sike i found one in the philippines there’s TWO corduroy chococats on the internet#i mean there’s literally one reddit thread i could find from years ago confirming that this series existed#and it’s only got like two commenters who only vaguely remembered the series#and a handful of worthpoint entries confirming that a couple of each of them had sold on ebay at some point#all the other sanrio corduroy plushies i could find were from other series#there’s a hello kitty and my melody from the same year but it wasn’t the same series#both series were rereleases in 2007 and the original release year for hk/mm was earlier than cc/k#20in 2012 fiesta keroppi? $40 when he usually goes for $100+#(this includes shipping…)#was devastated to find an etsy listing for the 2010 limited keroppi build a bear for $85 that had already sold…#the next cheapest one of those is like $140#and dont get me fucking started on chococat#no build a bear should EVER go for $500#like be serious. maybe it was limited edition 14 years ago but it’s still a damn stuffed animal#manifesting they rerelease the original sanrio build a bears to beat the price gougers into submission#the intersection of two special interests: sanrio and buying things from people who don’t know what they have#throwback to the 1993 keroppi squeaky toy that i thrifted for 25 cents#just looked it up to see and i found the exact same one but only on worthpoint#he used to be a keychain… mine is just the little guy with no chain#comparable one from the same year same size/material etc just different design goes for $20+#context i refuse to make a worthpoint account and pay them just to see what things sold for on ebay they can kiss my ass#me when i need to infodump but gf is at work and has already heard like half of this

how will one go about buying a pin
Once the pins complete production and i have them in hand, they'll be available on my etsy shop! i'll make a post announcing their arrival and listing when the time comes, with a direct link to them :]
#they entered production towards the end of july and based off previous pins i imagineeeee they Should be ready soon. hopefully#maybe earlyish september or thereabouts?#i'll be able to talk about the pins more once they're actually completed and on the way to me LOL. and esp once i get them in hand and--#--start grading them. and once i get the backing cards and oouuughh much to plan. much to do. but im excited :]#also as a blanket statement if there is some issue with etsy or shipping to your country please feel free to reach out privately when the-#--time comes and we can try to figure out an alternative!

Couple of simple cards experimenting with scrap paper and some bolded lettering. Can probably tell where my measured guidelines were off but they came out satisfactory lol
#Calligraphy#My calligraphy#I should probably set up an etsy shop or something but#I'm petrified of most social media besides tumblr lmao#Call that cringe if you wish#And I know it's near-impossible to get started without promoting like that

I appear to have once again accidentally bought some very rare expensive vintage sewing patterns at the op-shop for a couple of dollars.
#like there is So. Much. Treasure. but I want different treasure#the real problem is that I just like having them so even though I COULD sell them for like $80 each on etsy#they will instead just join my hoard#but I have ordered my new bed so once that gets here I can re-arrange my setup so it is easier to digitise patterns#because I will be able to store the excess fabric in under there and free up my photography wall#and I probably won't fully digitise them but I want to at least start uploading the image files of the patterns#with the grid so people can print them to scale if they want to#if people are doing it for money then I should be able to do it for the common good#also what was the licensing agreement on the Vogue Paris Originals patterns?#because they use the designers names but the copy implies that they just bought one of their items#and took it back to America and drafted a pattern from it that went into print#and that PROCESS is entirely legal in American copyright law#but there is no trademark information regarding the designer's names/signatures#but is that because it was the 60s?#most of my IP law knowledge is post-1996 when the WCT took effect#I am just saying that if Vogue basically stole the designs then I should be able to return the favour

My husband now knows the joys of archive.org and I am elated
#it started when he asked to see all the new books I got and he was like do you have any about secret societies#which are his special interest (adhd)#and I didn't really have that many in my occult books#so I offered to try and find him some and after browsing Etsy for a bit I thought#I should show him archive.org#and now he is over the moon lol#he's not a big reader but I told him he can find all the audio books he wants

What's like one big goal you're hoping to accomplish this year?
(PS I hope you don't get COVID! Even a "mild" case sucks, my sense of taste has yet to fully recover months later!)
Oh BOY that’s a complicated question hahahah. To try and put it simplistic as possible - figure out what I want to do with my life. Or like what path to take?
#first of all thank you! I really hope I don’t get it either. I mean I’m not super worried about me cause I know it’ll suck but I’ll be fine#but now that I live with my parents I’m scared that I’ll accidentally give it to them and both of them aren’t doing the best physically#but there’s nothing I can do now…. tbh I’ve been slacking with masks and being cautious so I should probably go back to that#masks are just expensive and I’m broke#need to either find my disposable or buy new ones#I hope your taste comes back soon!!! that sounds awful 😔#anywayyy to your question#right now I just kinda feel lost in life#I need to feel like I’m going somewhere again#cause right now I just feel like I’m in limbo????#obviously would love to figure out my mental bullshit but idk how realistic that is#honestly would just love to figure out everything that’s wrong with me so I can start to feel idk normal?#idk this is probably more loaded than you were expecting haha#but especially ever since the move I’ve been so fucking lost and I want to figure out my life but idk where to even start ya know#but yeah I guess that’s my goal#on a smaller scale I would love love love to get more traffic and sales on my Etsy#I just really want to make my Etsy shop a way to be creative and make money at the same time#cause paint and art shit is expensive 😭#and when you’re already broke it’s hard to justify buying paint or canvases ya know#buuuuut if I get more sales and a bigger profit then maybe it’ll be worth it???#also I LOVE seeing my paintings somewhere else its just so bittersweet#cause I love my paintings so much so it’s hard to let go of them#but the thought of someone else hanging them up and seeing them everyday????#it’s so heartwarming 🥺#like I could help warm up your space???? with color and some love 🥰💖#I just love it so much#thanks for the question lovely 🥰🥰🥰#ask#lovely mutuals

ah the eternal cosplayer struggle: which version of the show’s color grading do I take as canon?
#cosplay#cosplay plans#RRD cosplay#I'm still waiting on my red fabric to arrive#and I want to make just a couple of tiny adjustments to the mockup before I start in on the black silk organza underdress#but in the meantime I thought I'd spend some time trying to figure out her earrings#there are a couple of versions for sale on Etsy that are eh pretty close#but I feel like I could get closer and probably for cheaper#the question now is really just what sort of red I should be going for in the lower stones of the earrings?#carnelian red? ruby red? garnet red??#I've found some carnelian bezel-set charms that look like they'll work#but on the cusp of ordering I suddenly worried that they'll be too bright or orangey-red#hrmm#both the necklace and the red fabric are on their way but shipped internationally so taking their sweet time#maybe I'll just bookmark stuff for now and come back to the earring question once I have those two in my hands#hmm hmm
