Crochetin' abooout

So yes, I found a little thing on the internet..

I've decided to crochet a bunny. Yaaah.... I've crocheted a bit before, first time was in school, I made a rastafari hat in pink black and beige.. I never wore it.

Took it up again after seeing these cute things called amigurumis which is basically crocheted figures like bunnies, bears and even pumpkins and cupcakes, BOOYAAH! And yes I made a pumpkin for halloween last year.. and a ghost.. and then I made christmas hats for mine and Mr Fianceé's dragons, and the baby dragon and the flump.. Also made some hearts..
ANYWAY!
I'm making a bunny. So far I've got the head stuffed and ready to be pierced with a needle to go on the body, which still need to be done... Started on one of the floppy ears as well, and something funny is my hand is aching.. Christ.
"AAwwhhh... My hand hurts!!!"
"What have you done?" (SOMEONE I KNOW would ask if I've used whipped cream by now. But it's okej, he's a FAIRY! HA!)
"I'm crocheting a bunny....."

So much for having a gamer hand..

Hm. I'm sidetracking on my mannekin, it's trying to break it's waist while flopping about with it's arms and doing a ballerina foot. Oh well.

How did the clock turn 3 btw? I swear it was 2 just a minute ago.. Anyway, here's the bunny head and mah yarn, because it's awesome, but not as awesome as my pants! OH YEAH!

Toodles!

Late night craftin'

Hai!
And no, not in RIFT, lol. And yes I'm playing RIFT, I'm on Whitefall server as well but yeah, also I have an awesome name and chloromancer is awesome.

ANYWAY!

Been making earrings, again, because I love earrings! Made some red ones for now because I'm not sure if I'm happy with the purple/black ones atm, it feels like the bead at the bottom of the chain is too small and I don't have any bigger black beads, so may have to go to Panduro Hobby one day and get some.. Unless I order off Ebay and ask Mr Fianceé to bring 'em for me...

Hint! I love ebay and most craft stuff are waaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper on there, especially if you're looking for 925 sterling silver or silver plated stuff, I hate gold because of the colour so that's a no go for me! (even my engagement ring is silver coloured, but it's actually gold, well white gold as they call it because of the colour..)

I also baked a chocolate cake today, thought why not and NOM it was tasty!

Oh well.. I should probably head to bed now.. Studying need to be done tomorrow..


Toodles!

le home

And thus I set my foot down in Sweden the land of Vikings...
Yeah... I'm up very late and I'm making earrings, though I think I've gotten make-up remover in my eye so it keeps tearing.. Grrr.

On another note I've made a succesful attempt to paint the horn on my chaos space marine, well another coat of bleached bone is needed, have to check if I have any at home..

Oh well I shall be updating soon I hope.

Toodles!

Mr Fatty Foot has a sock hat

Hai!
Sorry I've been bad, very bad, at updating lately.. Been tons of stuff going on so it slipped my mind.

Have managed to paint a bit though and chaos space marine now have hornyish horns! Err. Well I've been working on the horns. Just leave it at that possibly, lol.

Bit meh as well because one of my bracelets broke yesterday, made it myself and it's hopefully not hard to fix but being in London without my jewellery making tools it's a bit impossible..

To cheer you up though, one of my feet are swollen (for a year and a half now...) because I stepped wrong a looong time ago so when my sock got "stuck" I had some fun!

Toodles!

Mr T is finished!

Hai!

So I've now finished my terminator and to be my 3 or 4th actually finished model I'm well proud!
Been working on him a few hours a day for like 2-3 days and as I mentioned before have half followed the step by step guide from the How to paint citadel miniatures book (the ultramarines tutorial).

What's left is to do some kind of basing for it which my fiancé is going to help me with, either will be slate or cork, maybe some snow.. Ideas?

Next I will probably aim to finish my slaaneshy chaos space marine and then I'm veeeeery tempted to paint a space wolf!

Oh well here's the result and my finished terminator (unless I realize I've forgotten something, lol)

Toodles!

Mr T is evolving!

Hai!

Well I had fun today! Mr Terminator now has a pair of arms that are painted and step 1 highlighted (space wolves grey is needed for a in your face highlight! (like on his very plate-y body..))

Anyway.. He's not fully done yet so keep that in mind when you admire his blueness, not SWG'd everywhere yet but it's a little taste..

Yeah, the arms aren't glued to him as you may notice, well.. It's easier to paint like that atm plus they weren't glued on when I found the model so.. HA!

Anyway, eyecandy!

Toodles!

Chaos and terminator!

Well, hello there..

Found some space marine terminators from the assault on black reach who were undercoated and half assembled so I thought I'd have some fun and paint one like an Ultramarine! I'm following(ish) the step by step guide from the book "How to paint citadel miniatures", really good book tbh and it has quite a few step by step guides and lots of tips for painting!

Anyway, mr terminator was undercoated with chaos black spray when I found him so I went from that, did a thin coat of ultramarine blue then washed him with a mix of regal blue and chaos black to get detail out and the recesses dark, then painted him with another thin coat of ultramarine blue and after that a little highlight on the edges with space wolves grey mixed with ultramarine blue.. Then I had a moment of LET'S INK HIM!!! and washed him with asurmen blue.. Possibly not one of my best moves though he looks nice but he does need another ultramarine coat to even the armorplates out..

This is what he looks like now though!

I also washed my purply little chaos marine with leviathan purple and omg that WAS a good move!! He looks very tasty, though in need of some highlighting and the rest of the painting, only done the armour.. HURR!

Pic!


Also thought they might like each other (not) so they posed together!

Poor mr terminator misses his arms...

 Toodles!

Teeheee teasy tease..?

Well, err. Working on a little photoshop thingie and thought I'd show a little tiny piece of it! It'll be 1080p so.. Got red on my mind for a few days now so I had fun googling it and found some nice inspirational pictures and off I went, lol!

Oh well here goes..

Have I mentioned I'm in London atm btw? Just thought I'd squeeze that in looking at the time.. Bob (my laptop) tries poking me in the eye telling me it's laaate, 1:26 but that's Swedish time! So Bob, cool down will you..? (he's boiling tbh.. prolly the Battlefield Bad Company 2 session's fault..)

Now I shall sleep though..(after my 500 situps..)

Toodles!

Some more updates

Hai!
Suddenly june has gone and july is here.. bit of a shock..
Went past Hobbycraft a few days ago to have a look around and get some stuffs, also checked out the yarn I found online and it was different from what I though.. I imagined quite a thick yarn but it was quite "slim" if you know what I mean, obviously I should've figured looking at what size needles you need lol.

Got some brushes and a little palette thing to mix my paints anyway and a mini mannekin! It's mega cute!
Look!!

Also started on one of my chaos space marines, going for a pink/purple slaanesh-ish style (now that's a mouthful..), they're undercoated with chaos black spray and then watered down warlock purple mixed with some chaos black, first highlight is warlock purple with less chaos black in to make it lighter, will probably wash it down with some leviathan purple and then another highlight of warlock purple/chaos black and then bit more extreme with warlock purple only.. then i need to figure out the details.. skulls will probably be bleached bone/skull white, gun you can all but guess.. lol. think I have to see how it looks though.

Oh well here's some pictures!

Also strange weather today.. bit cloudy but still nice!

Toodles!
