Daenerys

 

Today I learned that the Internet is Dark and full of terrors  hahaha
Just a personal experience on Reddit =)

Anyway, I'm learning to tell people that when I make a fanart, I just use the character and some details and just mix them to my likes. This image is an example, some people is disliking it because she should be bald, according to the book... well, I haven't reached that part in the books! >.< 

This is just the Targaryen girl with her signature dragons =)  that's it, don't look for anything else, you're not going to find it...

And her eyes does have a bit of purple! but the scanner is not picking it well, so, there ya go xD

As for the technical info, this lady was made with colored pencils on Strattmore Toned tan paper. Size 5,5" x 8,5".

The original is a gift for my husband, who likes it a lot and I'm proud if it ^^ 

Thank you for watching!

Custom ponies production stopped til further notice =(

 (Pony in progress, missing its gross factor because her blood won't shine without a gloss glaze T^T)

Today I went to my local Home Depot, with hopes to find a polyurethane water based glaze for some charms I'm making and of course, for my custom ponies. My surprise was that I just found oil-based glazes from Minwax, and that they're not going to carry more polyurethane glazes for wood any longer. This is a crazy situation and sadly, all my projects will be delayed til I find something good to work with.  Sculpey Gloss Glaze whas my favorite varnish, until it started to crack the painting. For some projects looks cute and it adds some elements of surprise. But in other projects, well, it's disappointing

So, I won't be working on the projects I expected to work before closing all sales during mid-November, in order to avoid Xmas rush and mail delaying. It happened to me once, sent a pony on the first week of December and it arrived til February. =|  And I was lucky it got there!

I will be working on ponies, but I will have to take them with me to the USA next time I go, hopefully now as a permanent resident.  I'm sad, because I have a couple projects that will be shipped to Europe that will cost 10 times more to send from USA than from Mexico =(  But quality goes first.

I'm in the search for this water based glaze, it must exist something !  I have some charms on hold and I don't want to deliver them with cracks!

So I guess that I will be focusing this couple months to my drawings and paintings more than my crafts T.T


Well, happy weekend to everybody... <3

An article I found by Adeline Halrvorson

Adeline Halrvorson is a lovely woman we met at the Scottsdale Festival of the Arts back in February this year. She's a very impressive artist that made me understand how far somebody can go with acrylic paints. She makes some wonderful horse paintings (of course, this caught my eyes first!) and you could not believe they're not made with oils!

This is her website:

http://www.adelinehalvorson.com

Today I went through her website again and found on her FAQ a link to an article she wrote about the progress of a big painting she made. I wanted to store the link somewhere, as it is a wooonderful source of advice on technique and process!

Visit her site, she's amazing!

Have a wonderful day!

Drawings for a local convention this weekend

Good morning <3

Soooo, faithful to my work routine, I completely forgot about this convention hehehe  I just came back from Az a month ago and well, the last thing in my mind was to prepare for this Con =|

But I'm doing well, I'm having fun preparing some drawings to take with me, it's been a while since I worked with pens, and I'd like to think that with all the practice I've been having with semi-realistic drawings I've been able to work faster on this manga-style ladies =)

I would like to make from 15 to 20, but with the time I have left, it's going to be a miracle if I get to finish 10 hehehe. I still have half day today and the whole friday to make this work =)  I already have the sketches for the 4th and the 5th ladies and hopefully will finish 3-4 more today. If I get to have 8 by the time I leave for a movie tonight ^^

I will have this ladies for sale next week =)

Thanks for reading,
Have a lovely day

Designer Toy Awards Nominee 2013 - Best Customizer !

I was recently surprised that my submission for the Designer Toy Awards 2013 was accepted!  it is kind of a weird contest, because there's a public voting process to choose 5 of the 9 finalists per category , and the remaining 4 will be chosen by a board of judges.

I'm in awe because I'm participating in the same category as Jeremiah Ketner!  I loove his sweet looking customs, such an honor! Of course, being unknown means that I might not have many chances, but it is awesome to be there... sadly, I'm spamming my own fb accounts for votes hehehe

If you'd like to vote for me, please go and register at Designer Toy Awards 2013  and go to My Nomination Page  and click on "Confirm Selection". You can vote every 24 hrs in each category!  I will appreciate any help!

Thank you!

Nearly finished ACEO card

After 3 weeks I'm finally being able to work on this lady of the first 4 ACEO's I planned to make. This Lady is part of the "Inner Secrets" serie I'm developing.  She's still keeping some secret from me, but she's now speaking clearer than she used to, it is just matter of time for her to let me know something else <3

She's already on hold, but other girls (ACEO sized and bigger drawings) are available on my etsy store <3 

Thank you for reading, have a wonderful day!
