New Pictures Up!

I've finally put up some new pictures on the merchandise page! My photography skills are not so fabulous, but these picture are still a vast improvement thanks to my new camera.

I have also changed the design of the "depressed" hair clip, to make it look more cloud-like. Behold!

The rest of the new pictures are after the jump.

New Merchandise Pics

I am in full-on constant sewing mode now, and making serious headway on the stuff I want to have done before Bishie Con! These pictures are absolutely terrible - I stuck a business card in there for scale, but did not think of the fact that a white business card on a white background is basically invisible... also holding my laptop out at weird angles while trying to control Photo Booth sucks, so this is as good as its gonna get until my new camera arrives.  >.<  Try to imagine the cuteness in person, un-blurry and with okay lighting! Without further ado, pics of what I've finished in the past few days:

More raincloud plushies.

Keychain sized raincloud plushies!

Keychain-sized Cheese-kun. The hat brim is made of a single large sequin!

Another full-size Cheese-kun (about 15" high).

The merchandise page has also been updated in a major way with all this new stuff - all the prices are listed there, so check it out!

Raincloud Plushies

I have officially finished my new batch of raincloud plushies!

Dr. Horrible included for scale.

The idea for these started with an old gray blanket I had, which was chewed up in some parts, so I wanted to do something creative with it. Add some blue beads and fabric paint, and voila!  They've also got a little loop at the top, for hanging, which is really the best way to appreciate the rain. A few of them lean a bit to one side or the other, but honestly it just makes them cuter. ^__^

I've also found a decent temporary solution for the no-camera problem. Combining my roommate's nice floor lamp (and it's "daylight" light bulbs) and my Mac's photo booth actually gives pretty decent results. Holding the laptop up, and trying to tilt it at the right angle while using the track pad is pretty hard though... but at least I can update the merchandise page with a picture of these guys now.

Only a week until I head to Chicago!

Cloud Plushies, etc.

I've spent a while today making some (pretty adorable, if I do say so) raincloud plushies. They aren't quite done, but I am still camera-less anyway, so no pictures yet.

I am still gathering my old pictures (some taken by friends, some by me), so those are still forthcoming. :)

The conventions page was also tweaked a little bit - I think it's complete and accurate now! (Until I sign up for the next new convention...)
