I finished my beautiful lacy beast! It took me a few months, 11 yards of cotton sateen, forty yards of lace, and many hours of hand sewing, but it’s done!
This dress is based on this ensemble from the 1860s. The dress is made of cotton sateen with tulle, chantilly lace, alencon lace, embroidered lace, and beaded details. The vast majority of it was hand sewn.
The bodice is lined with cotton, lightly boned, and laces up the back. The skirt closes with hooks and weighs eight pounds thanks to all the embellishments. It has a twenty four inch waist and is worn over a steel boned corset, hoop skirt, hip roll, and petticoat. All of which were made by me!
It was a process, with lots of ups and downs but i’m really pleased with the end result. Construction notes and more photos can be found here!
My heart is beating fast, I can’t sleep and I’m thinking about Pokemon. Seeing all these classic Kanto pokemon scattered all over my hometown is just giving me an unbelievable amount of feels.
We’re really seeing something pretty cool happen right now, right in the middle of all the crap that’s happening. The world is nuts.
Going back through these watercolors from the archive- think I might revisit this series soon :D
Anonymous asked: were you the creator of the sam and phil comic?
holy shit I didn’t think anyone would know about that these days, yes! but sadly I think that story has passed into the graveyard of ‘things that I have lost enthusiasm for’, even if I have affection for it

Animation software is, by and large, very expensive and out of the range of most people seeking to get into animation. As of March 26th, this software will become open source and available to all prospective animators!
This is 2/3 of a band called Too Many Zooz (they’re lacking their trumpeter here), the song is called ‘Flightning,’ and the genre is “brass house” (which i think they made up but hey i dig it). They have a handful of songs on Spotify and just successfully Kickstarted their first full-length album.
