Me seeing several companies fight over rights to AI generated characters because they were public domain as a result of their creation: "Oh no! How could this possibly have been avoided! 😱 If only there was a way to make characters that are copyrightable without AI 🤔"

I'm not to be trusted with computers

Still anti-genAI, down to the smallest inconsequential icon btw

Just downloaded Pokemon Go for the first time in a while. Y'all didn't tell me it was freaky like that

By the way, a *human model* finally is in the works. A friend has kindly donated a 3D scan that I can use for a reference for a version in my typical style. So if you're into less fantasy creatures and just want a safe quality toy, that's actively being worked on.

Cat tax for not being very active online

Hey guys, just wanted to give a bit of an update on where the shop is at the moment. We're currently in modelling / mold making mode. We're also pouring toys but they're being sold at local events because it's WAY easier on me with the limited room I have. That's why stock is kinda stale for now.

Thermochromatics are fun!

Update: sewing machine journey is going well

I haven't been super active online since I started focusing on local events, but I just wanted to let y'all know general shop activity might slow down while I learn sewing. I am not beating the ADHD hobby allegations.

I ordered a bit titty mousepad and I got a standee of Jesus in the mail. If this isn't on purpose, it's really funny lmao

Maybe an opportunity to make toy storage bags? Not a promise but would that be an add-on people are interested in?

"i will slurp down swastikas all day but do not let me see one boob" is an excellent filter for awful people. i, for one, hate nazis and love boobs, and i'm brave enough to say it

Maximalist swirls lmao

Doin some color tests 🍉

I love my local events. Also, this is the second time I think I've ever put text on a toy

I've always loved making parody labels since I was smol

Making these custom lights for events was WORTH IT

Bring those dildos out for the xylophone, and it becomes a cockenspiel.

Guess who is finally here!!! Its my custom aroace pride reptilian from @noodlecrafters.com!! This toy is SO pretty! Such perfect shades of blue and orange and wow what cute balls he has 🥰

New favorite set of colors unlocked

It literally just barely holds itself under its own weight

Pouring a 9" monster for a local prize table. Cecil Sunday ❤️

Test pour (right) vs. the goal (left) Gosh I love how the stripes turned out on the base

This little guy was just a test for a pour method but came out pretty cool on its own

Made a lil shelf for my smaller pigment bottles. I think finally I can move back into production now that a lot of counter space is free again

Ran outta shaft silicone oops, but my silly little end rod toy experiment is the first toy with the new shop setup

Today was certainly productive! I built the shelving on the back wall, and started engineering / printing a silicone bucket mod that'll allow me to pour cleanly from Smooth-On's buckets without a mess. And the buckets can still stack!

Pouring new toys is pausing for a few days, currently adding a back-wall shelf to the shop and creating a new silicone dispensing setup to include 00-30 and other hardnesses at the ready other than just medium.

Oh, for makers who don't know, these cups are available freely in noodlecrafters.com/pages/stuff-for-makers They are weird. They have to be printed in vase mode, and there's a specific file for each nozzle size. But they print REALLY fast and are really efficient.

My split pour cup design has this funny little quirk where if your printer is super accurate and consistent, the case mode cup will totally allow you to fan the chambers out. Totally unintentional? Yes. Probably useful? Hell yeah.
