Yeah, I see pixel people shooting guns and immediately think Oregon Trail.

That is actually a little joke I put in there.
The man on the right is the player in Gun Fight and the man on the left is the player in a clone game Outlaw. So it's basically a who would win in a fight set up.

I've got a couple of things finished. Just making sure I don't want to do more. Also had a couple of things not work, but I may remake them.

Using a reference picture from Checkpoint I have the current face which took me 45 mins to try and get right. Still needs work. Not sure why I put the exclusion version here.

Next round of improvement tips please.


The thumb is much better! It looks great!

Late off the mark, but proposal submitted. Too many things I could do, still not quite sure which it will end up being...so here's a pretty picture instead (it's bigger on the inside!):

I love it! I loved your LRR scarves from last year - you do beautiful work.

Found her, too. Now my Carmen won't be lonely at Desert Bus. Speaking of which, I need to get my project on paper so I can start getting it on fabric.

It's not looking good for my more complicated project (the time is just not there... maybe next year) but I did get one thing finished and ready this week! So I figured I'd offer a preview.

It was supposed to be just the coasters, but then I was at a craft store with some friends looking for things to paint for fun, and I found that box and knew what I had to do.

I've finished the basic under-felting (is that a thing?) for my Worm. He turned out bigger than I was initially intending, so he's about 8 inches tall and 6 inches front-to-back. I used Pinewood Derby weights to keep him upright.
