Well hello there!!!
Been quite a long time since I've seen you! Hope that means you've been getting into good kinds of mischief, or at least keeping busy (but I prefer the first option). Feel free to drop me a line sometime I'm pretty easy to stalk.
P.S. As I've told your mom, I want to kidnap your dog

Sadly, there hasn't been too much mischief...I've been working my tail off, getting ready for student loan payments. How're you?
And no puppy-napping!

Doing alright... well into the student loan repayments. It sucks! But otherwise doing the same, working working and more working. And getting in some Adria time of course... currently working on building a set of fingered gauntlets for steel.
I have to say from browsing your gallery that I am very impressed by your masks! How much do you usually charge for those? I could very well be interested in one... well two actually. I have ideas that require a different face you might say

Gryphling In reply to WinterPhoenixDesign [2009-11-11 11:47:40 +0000 UTC]
Haha! I am intrigued. The prices range from $10 to $40, depending on how much material is used to make it. What did you have in mind?

WinterPhoenixDesign In reply to Gryphling [2009-11-12 13:14:20 +0000 UTC]
Well I have a long-standing belief in the ability of a mask to change the mental state of the wearer. Masks psychologically can make the wearer become a complete different creature all together, if combined with the proper training. They can also work well to put you in a different mindset and focus for rituals, which is why a lot of masks were worn in ceremonies and traditions in the old world. So I've always loved masks But that's just me rambling...
The first one is actually for a second persona I'm considering for Adria. It would be probably more of a face mask than an animal mask. I'm sure you've seen the Death Eater masks from Harry Potter... probably something along those lines (though maybe not as crazy with some of the details). I can explain more later if you're curious.
The second would actually be a gift for a close friend of mine who loves birds. So naturally, a bird mask I think would be perfect for her (it will compliment all of her bird tattoos too haha).
Still intrigued?

I am still very much intrigued. I agree with your interpretation of masks, as well.
If you'd like to email me at celestria@cox.net, we can discuss details and prices and such further. I won't be able to reply until probably Monday, though - I'm in Chicago right now for a con.

^__^ Ahh! You found me! I love your gallery; can't wait to have more time to look more closely at it. How's the 2D project going along?

Thanks for the faves and watch, dude! Glad you like the gallery...yours is fantastic.
The 2D project is slowly coming together, bit by bit. I almost don't want to fill it in with paint - I like how the contours look.

I sent you a txt but I don't know if you got it. When are you guys meeting, I'd like to take pictures of you all and find out what you'd like on your bios for the site. Also, do you or Dr. Brad have any Medea photos? I tried to take some at the preformance I went to, but my camera died.

Hey sorry, must not have got it and I only just now checked dA. We have an officers' election meeting this Tuesday at 6:30 at Einstein's...though good luck getting everyone together for a photo. Hopefully most of the core group will be there on Tuesday. All of the photos from my camera came out blurry because the idiots didn't use flash. Not sure about Dr. Brad...ask Link if the library got any with their cameras.

Shit, I have a class at 7 PM that I have to prepare for ahead of time...do you think you could do me a huge ass favor and maybe snap some photos? I'll send Link an e-mail too, asking if there's anything specific you guys want in your bios, and if you want them to be "real" bios, or the stuff I have as a space taker now, which is like "Nicole's favorite classical work is Medea, because she enjoys seeing homemaker's kicking ass." If you can't get any photos that's ok, I might try and do it on an individual basis.

Of course! I can't believe I wasn't watching you before. I'm still interested in a gryphon mask, by the way...working on saving up enough for it.
