Topic: WARNING: Christmas gift in this thread. Christmas spoilers?

[idolminds]

I was going to have this be a total surprise until after Christmas, but he turned out better than I hoped. Que is getting Julia a DS Lite, and people hang charms of their DSs so I figured I'd make a charm. Click the spoiler below to see pics.

Que, don't tell Julia or let her see this thread! I want it to be a surprise but I'm so happy with him I had to post.

For scale:


The lighting kinda sucks because my lightbox is destroyed so I just took it in the kitchen on some paper/cloth.

I know hes not really purple in the movie but I thought it looked cuter.

Sadly I don't think it'll work well as a charm, the ears will bust right off if it gets knocked around. So I'm making an charm better suited for the DS thing. Maybe this would be a good Christmas ornament or something.

But the other charms will stay secret. I'm making a bunch, some aren't done yet, and some are for other people here so....secret.

haha that looks like a Goat with a mask on its face like Dr. Hannibal Lecter.

[idolminds]

Thats totally not what I was going for...

[Pugnate]

Should I put spoiler tags on that?

It looks really really cute though. Honestly.

[sirean_syan]

Sweet. I'm pretty sure she's going to cherish that a lot.

[idolminds]

Dont have to spoiler it pug. I just did the pics because I didnt want que to open the thread and have them right there in case julia walked by or something.

Its kinda fun doing clay again. This dude (and a couple other things) are the first thing I made in over a year.

[Quemaqua]

Holy crap.  She's going to love that to death.  You're going to get more points for that than I am for all the expensive shit I bought her.

 ... I think I need to go buy some clay and learn how to make things with it.  Fast.

[idolminds]

I'll bring some (or buy some there) and teach you. Is fun, except I always try make things smaller than they really need to be. Like it would have been a million time easier if he was the size of a quarter instead of a penny.

Hmmm, maybe the ears would be more sturdy if he was larger. I need to experiment. Maybe match the color better...

[TheOtherBelmont]

Haha that thing is cool, what movie is it from?  It looks very familiar.  Cool gift though.

I thought so, there's so many imitations of that character in anime culture its hard to be sure sometimes. I haven't seen that movie in quite sometime.
