[?] Phone charms

Phone charm/keychain/earring birthday gifts. I was originally going to buy a flimsy Obi-Wan and Norrington keychain for $4, but I thought making my own Norrington and Obi-Wan would be less lame. lol. :(


Temeraire, Spock, and James Norrington.  It is very logical.

I mean, I see homemade ones on deviantart all the time. How hard could it be? Answer: SO HARD AND FRUSTRATING BUT YET SO ADDICTING AND YOU KEEP THINKING, “OKAY, NEXT ONE WILL BE BETTER. NEXT ONE. THE NEXT, NEXT ONE. ETC.”


Left to right: Shinon (Fire Emblem for sexypantstas), James Norrington (PotC), Laurence (Temeraire), Temeraire, Captain Obi-wan Kenobi, Spock, Dragonlord Haar.

I personally don't like the gloss glaze and prefer the matte look, but it keeps the paint from rubing off, I guess.


Unfortunately, Laurence was one of the first ones made. Had no clue what I was doing then, I also didn’t have a craft knife at the time, so he’s a little… lumpy. Temeraire was made after I got the hang of the clay tools.






Haar also rides a black dragon. :B

PROGRESS SHOTS:



Temeraire and Obi-Wan in a flattering metallic pearl pink color.



Haar's head fell off when he was baking.  Obi-Wan and Temeraire are amused.



Norrington and Ptolemy looming behind him.  No blue paint for a bit. :/



Drying set up, lol.  The 4th one down the row is sexypantstas 's attempted Roxas.

I still have a lot of left over clay left. I might do the Power Rangers, Jack Sparrow, Kirk, Granby*, and Maximus (both from Codex Alera and Temeraire).  I am completely smitten. They are so bad, but FUN. IDEK.

*The first Granby I made got charred, which was just as ironic as Haar’s head falling off, I think. I really want to make an Iskierka, but I think all the spikes will make me cry.
