Welp, it has been a week so I guess it is time to post an update or something. I have a friend who DM's Dungeons & Dragons. He asked me to make a few things for his game, so Friday and Saturday I made a hanging gibbet and a town rules sign. I had no idea what I was doing, I just kind of decided to wing it. I read somewhere that someone once made one with a curler, so I found myself one of my pink velcro curlers and went to work. I peeled off the pink loops, leaving just the plastic foundation, which looks amazingly like a cage. Then I cut some of the bars out, and folded over the top to make a lid thingy I could hang it from. Then I made a post out of basswood and a base out of SuperSculpey. The plates are also SuperSculpey. I then painted the cage and plates black, then dry brushes it with silver from a silver plating pen. It turned out pretty good for my first time out.
The sign was made out of basswood as well. It didn't turn out exactly how I wanted, but not bad. Here are some pics:

As it is February, once again it is time for FAWM. I have never successfully completed FAWM. February Album writing Month. My goal this year is to get at least a few songs written. We'll see how that goes. I also have the They Might Be Giants video I am working on, school and trying to find a job. I still plan to try though. Today I am working on finishing my writing projects to turn in, and playing Jackbox, then tomorrow I am going to make a schedule to try to make sure I get to work on everything I need to...or want to. Mainly everything I have successffully written musically have just been instrumentals. That may be what I end up with. But that is ok.
