Yesterday I came home after a miserable day at work and saw Liz Ohanesian’s article about the new X Japan video, which had a picture of the werewolf that I helped make - I hadn’t seen it since it was finished and it turned out great!!! IMMD :)

In only 3 days, Ralis and a small team made the actual mold, skin, teeth, eyes, and other details, I put the fur on him, another girl cut and styled the fur, and then Ralis put on the finishing touches. I can’t wait to see the video!

For Valentines Day, tlr and I made a stuffed-animal-monster backpack together. It was made out of an empty metal coffee tin, with the intention of being a cookie monster since I was baking a shitload of cookies at the time. We hot-glued and stitched him together out of a few severed stuffed animal limbs salvaged from an awesome Kawiettly Please show ::
The lips are fake leather, the teeth are white fabric sewn over manilla paper with fabric paint blood
Riff Raff and monster (who has glue-snot dripping from his nose)

We filled this guy up with Snickerdoodles and took it to a Darkmatter show, then handed out cookies to anyone who was curious enough to ask what it was :) Liz Ohanesian even pictured us in her LA Weekly article about the event!
