Yay Halloween is soon! I'm making my own costume--as you might have noticed, I've got an ANBU mask in the works, with a progress photo in my scrapbook. I just finished painting it tonight, and I'm pretty proud. :3 It should be obvious to anyone looking at it that it's not a professional job (it's definitely not symmetrical, and not on purpose), but I think it looks pretty sweet! Especially considering I've got about zero experience with clay and paint.

Now to figure out how to attach a strap. Securely. I'm really afraid that the mask is going to fall and shatter, or that the holes for the strap will crack. Argh. And then I need to work on my vest (I'm improving a vest I made a few years ago for the same costume...it was made entirely by hand, with very limited resources...I had to get very creative with the fastenings, which I tend to rectify before this Halloween). And arm guards! And shoes! Oh my.

I also bought a little sketchbook recently and have been toting it around to work and such. I've only started one doodle in it, but it's looking pretty cute (a Halloween Picc pic!), so maybe I'll finish it. And I have ideas for other Halloween Picc pics. Poor Picc's been collecting dust for a while...she deserves some attention.

Art requests:
I can't promise they'll get done in a timely fashion, but I'm happy to take requests, and I'll do my best to finish them eventually. Nothing too offensive, though, please.
