I can do this...I think.

Alright! After much self doubt and moping, I have renewed drive to make this etsy thing work!

Throughout July I have been beating myself up. I've only had a couple sales all month and have let it become an excuse to be depressed and not create. Hey stupid! No one is gonna buy anything if you don't make it! I have made a few things, but nothing close to what I should have to show for an entire months worth of time. Without further ado, here are some of my July critters!

My favorite, a zebra-corn!


Some random charms...


And a cutesy pink dragon that I was testing out blending on.


I made a couple more gem dragons as well! Just four more colors and the set will be complete! Of course, that will make it a set of 13. Is that bad luck?




Phew! That's a lot of pictures! I'm going to try and stay motivated so I can post more often, and not just about my own products. I am working on a really cool looking asian dragon tealight holder. I think I got a little overzealous making him. You'll see what I mean when I post him!

My Little Sephiroth Pony...

It's all gloomy grey outside today! The weather here really throws me off sometimes. Whenever it got a little grey in Utah there was sure to be rain, if not snow. Here, NOTHING happens! Silly California.

I've made a lot of charms lately, but I can't seem to get very good photos of them! There is a local workshop later this month that teaches people how to photograph their 3D artwork, so I think I might check it out. I can use all the help I can get!

I finished this little black unicorn over the weekend.

My husband nicknamed him "Sephiroth Pony" because of the ridiculously long silver tail. Horse legs are a pain, I've decided. I'm slowly getting better at sculpting them, but they are so knobbly! Is that even a word? I'm working on a zebra-unicorn right now, and I feel like the anatomy is already improving. I know these guys are kinda cutesy and they aren't supposed to be crazy realistic or anything, but I think you create a better sculpt overall if you understand the anatomy. Practice, practice, practice!
