Can't stop won't stop
My friend Peter's birthday party was last night, and for the past three years, I have made him nerdy cupcakes for his birthday. I asked what theme he'd like this year, and he said Pokemon. You can imagine how excited I was.
I decided to make his Pokemon Y team, as well as some of his favourites. I used Pokemon Trozei sprites for the template (except for Mega Gardevoir and Mega Charizard, for whom I just used Sugimori artwork). Using only buttercream in ziplock baggies and a lot of time, I made these.
I am pretty satisfied with the result. :D There's Froakie, Honedge, Amaura, Goomy, Mewtwo, Mega Gardevoir, Gardevoir, Mega Charizard Y, Greninja, Aegislash, Aurorus and Goodra! It's awesome seeing how much I've improved since my first attempt at Pokemon cupcakes (which were also for Peter). My favourites are Greninja, Goodra and Mega Gardevoir.
My sister also had her birthday a couple weeks ago. Half of my family is really into Game of Thrones, and we're super stoked for season 4! So for her, I made house sigil cupcakes, made of chocolate. :D
These are the houses Targaryen, Lannister, Baratheon, Stark, Tully and Greyjoy! Some came out better than others, but it was fun nonetheless. My crazy sister also ate the cupcakes but saved the chocolate sigils so she could do a photoshoot. Yeeeeeep.
On an unrelated note, this month you could get a free copy of Pokemon X or Y (offer ends tomorrow)! Boyfriend got a 3DS and Pokemon Black back when I did since I wouldn't stop talking about it at the time, but he never finished the game nor did he get any other games for the system. Since his PS3 recently died and lost all of his saves, I thought he might appreciate a new, free game, so I got him a code to get the download. He did have to go out and buy a new memory card for his DS to get it, but he has begun the game and started with Froakie. Yep, he is a pretty swell dude.
Also meeting the animé convention programming director on Wednesday to discuss my Pokémon convention proposal! Wish me luck!
