Bazaar of the Bizarre photos

Taking part in this show was a real treat! The vendors were awesome and so were the mobs of all ages wandering amongst the tables. Amarina and I met some great people. Above, you can see the full spread including an amazing banner that my cohort surprised me with!

There were great responses, the best ones often wordless. A favourite was from a girl who was walking by aimlessly. She looked over at my table absentmindedly, gave a blink that was nearly a flinch and stopped. Then took a couple steps towards the table, leaned over for a closer look, shaking her head while smiling.

Below in the middle you can see Feral Meryl. I had a contest going (a brilliant idea thanks to Amarina) where contestants suggest what Meryl will fight and the winner would get a print of their idea for free. Only 4 were daring enough to cast a ballot. Since all of their suggestions were amazing I've decided they all win and I can't wait to do them all!

Though she looks quite sharp in her ceremonial attire, Feral Meryl is, as her name suggests, a bit savage. She guards the Empress and anything that comes through that door will wish it hadn't.

The winners were:

Mr. Brett of ChiZine Publications
Mr. Thomas of Imaginary Thomas
Ms. Ele of Minouette
and
Ms. Julia of the House of Reynardin

I'll reveal their suggestions as they are completed.

Pop and Strut

This switch plate is SOLD!

But I will be vectoring it in the future so you will see this stomping vixen popping up elsewhere for certain.

Next is the song she's stomping to. It stomps. Then it waves a finger at you in a "Tsk Tsk" kind of way. Then it skips and bounds right out the back door and leaves before you even realize your car keys are missing.

I've started writing lyrics and melodies to a lot of these songs. They always felt like they were little stories but now it's time that I make them more concrete and potentially ruin them forever.

But I can't wait and I'll always have a fondness for their original unsung state.

Enjoy!

"Too high, Bug-eater." PART 2!!!

Another installment of the Greatest Misses switch plate series.....kind of. This is the sequel to the previous installment seen HERE. It started as a suggestion from my friend Yves and was further promoted by my eternal cohort, Amarina. I'm so glad I did it.

This amazon made short work of her avian foe. Yikes on bikes! That is one sharp elbow. POW!

"Too high, Bug-eater."

Here's another of the Greatest Misses series of switch plates. Entitled "Too high, Bug-eater."

He really should have caught her in the face if he was going to get away without a broken arm, which is surely what that girl is planning on doing once she snatches that sword and breaks it over her knee.

Greatest Misses: Uno

This is the first of an ongoing series of switch plates called "Greatest Misses." The concept is big-time moves that never made their mark. Narrow misses, lucky dodges and perhaps a few scarce "BLOCK!"s.

Available at the Cyclops and Owl shop HERE
