It seems Lil Cthulhu shouldn't have made fun of one of the other Elder Gods about it's drinking of pink lemonade.
Seems Lil Cthulhu got punked in return.

Grrrr raaaaaaa....
Just another day of zombie wrangling. This one will have a little more detail but he's pretty much done. The final thing is a design on his shirt and maybe a little more "blood".
I think all the time I've spent on this little guy alone today equals item done for the day, don't you? Don't worry it'll be done-done shortly. I just wanted to get the post up before I forgot so I can go back to watching my CSI.
Up next, his delicious beau. Yum.

Today was the final final touch to chibi-Vic (see yesterday's post for the update), made lunch for the rest of the week for the hubbers, and then wracked my brain over a couple of Zombie Mini Plush for a friend of mine, who I may or may not feed to a pack of wild kittens after I'm done with these. Here's a sneak peek at the finished sketch.
Wish me luck! xx ~Static
You remind me of the babe.
What babe? The babe with the power.
What power? Power of voodoo.
Who do? You do.
Do what? Remind me of the babe.
(Exerpt of Magic Dance ~David "Awesomesauce" Bowie)
Here's a little voodoo babe for ya...
Please excuse the table pic but I'm too, erm, tired (read: being lazy) to get to my light tent. I'll likely get to it later and post the result to Flickr. Alrighty, off I go. I've got a chibi to finish, a beta to read, and Nekos to plot!

Here's a couple custom requested Ivory Krampusses playing together before they went off to their new home. One's obviously a little shy, the other not so much...
Always happy to make more or other create other critters!

I did a trade a while ago with the lovely Dr. Igora Fauxbia, of the Zombigurumi Love Lab. Now I know what I will look like if I ever become zombified! Sorry I don't have a full body picture but my workroom has been a disaster until recently and I just couldn't wait any longer to post about my Zombigurumi.

Some of the details might not be obvious at first glance, but believe me, they are just perfect. Dr. Fauxbia got my curly black hair obviously but my nose ring, double labret (in silver thread, no less) and black plugs are there too. Love it! The dangling eyeball and scratches are such a great touch.
Thanks again for the trade, Dr. Fauxbia!

Here are the goodies I sent to Nitebyrd, my stalkee this year.
Pumpkin jingle bell earrings, a witch eraser, Halloween foam stickers, 4 zombie rubber ducks &, la piece de resistance, a Bloody Zombie Head Pillow Slip Cover complete with pillow! Which, let me tell you, was not easy to find a box for. I had smush the pillow a bit to make it all fit. Hopefully things didn't get too wrinkly on it's way to the coast.
The Bloody Zombie Head Pillow Slip Cover is 16"x16", Grey Woven with an envelope back. The zombie silhouette is black synthetic felt with hand stitched blood accents in cranberry, edge stitched in green to the cotton print background, and framed in 3/8" black satin ribbon, mitered corners and all.
What Nitebyrd had to say about it:
"Static, I seriously LOVE it so much, I want to carry it around like a woobie. I really do!
THANK YOU!!!"

This is probably the last one I'll do. Trying to get slippery, but lovely, lining onto velvet is a pain in the rear. Hell, anything to do with sewing velvet is a pain! But velvet's so pretty! I know. Sigh. Anywho...
Every diva needs a capelet to ward off the cool night airs! They're absolutely perfect for early Autumn, Spring or cool evenings out on the town. Wear it centered, jauntily toss it over one shoulder, or fold down the collar. You can even wear it stripe side out if the feeling strikes you!
See the listing here for details.

Shipping costs are listed for US, Canada, US & Australia. If you are in an area not listed convo me for the shipping cost.

Check out the custom Bloomers I recently finished! I personally love them. This one was a bit of a challenge because the Skulls & Roses cotton print fabric is not easy to come by particularly where I live. Luckily I was able to snag some at a decent price online. Then, I realized I was completely out the black cluney lace I was going to use to trim these. But, hidden away in my lace stash was just enough of the black & white cluney lace you see here. I've had it so long I don't think it's made anymore. At least, I've yet to find more!
Even with the hiccups, or more like thankfully due to the hiccups, I was able to create a great pair of one-of-a-kind bloomers for a wonderfully patient (and repeat) customer!

Thinking about Halloween costumes yet? You should be! Here's a couple patterns I just listed to help you along.
L to R pattern description and costume suggestions:
Row 1: Morpheus & Neo in Matrix Reloaded.
Neo's coat in the first movie was more a western style duster with a regular collar & 'V' insets on the shoulders. Morpheus' coat, if you want to be as accurate as possible, should be done in a black alligator skin-looking vinyl. But, that can be mighty pricey so you may just opt for a nice black vinyl.
The pattern suggests velcro closures. Bleh. If you prefer buttons, like I do, here's excellent instruction on how to do so: http://sewing.about.com/library/sewnews/library/aatech0703a.htm . Or, sew in a nice long zipper to go for that Skinny Puppy - Pro-test look! Word. (If you know the band & video you know what I'm talking about ;D)
Sherlock Holmes, Van Helsing, Full Metal Alchemist, Uryū Ishida
My hubby thinks the coat on the left (blue) looks Van Helsing but it would need some tweaking with lots of buckles, straps, top stitching galore and the back reshaped and topstitched. If you want to get as close as possible to the movie costume, anyway!
I think it would be an excellent beginning to a coat for an Uryū Ishida costume, from the anime Bleach, personally. It would also be a good start for a Full Metal Alchemist (another anime) military outfit.
The coat on the right is obviously a Sherlock Holmes style. The pattern even includes the sleuth cap. But if you're good at playing with patterns it could be turned into an Alucard, of the Hellsing anime, coat by shortening and attaching the front edges of the cape to sleeves inner seam rather than have it come all the way to the center front.
Row 2: Victorian travel/driving coats, Interview with a Vampire, Steampunk, Doctor Who
This pattern is a basic men's Victorian driving coat and it includes a pattern for your lady! We know how cold it get's in October here in NA so this would be perfect to throw over your Lestat, Louis or any other Vampire Chronicles character. Louis & Lestat wear something similar in the first movie, if you want to get picky.
And, of course, there's the every popular steampunk stylings. Are you a time traveling mad doctor? A Jules Verne type of adventurer? Well then, you need a coat, don't you?
Shorten the coat to the knee, make it out of brown wool with no top stitching and guess what you have? The coat for Tom Baker's Doctor Who, that's what!
Civil War, Victorian/Steampunk, Firefly
Here we have Civil War North & South uniforms. Confederate is on the left and Union is on the right. I can not say if these are historically accurate for reenactment but I'm betting they'd be a good place to start if you're wanting to make your own.
This pattern is Victorian era regardless and can be used to get you going on some nice steampunk outfits too.
Also, if you lengthen the one on the right to about the knee, stitch it up in brown suede, add wide leather cuffs (or faux if you prefer), don't forget the splits at the side seams aka gun flaps, and guess what you made? A Firefly Browncoat! The previous Victorian driving coat is also a good basis for a Firefly Browncoat.
More patterns can be found in my Etsy supply shop: http://StaticWhite.etsy.com
I also have ladies costumes, beads and trim for sale so be sure to check it all out!
