Very First Custom

Found this picture the other day, didn't think I had a picture of him, but here is my first ever CM that I painted back in 2009, he has way too much white for my liking and I thought that at the time as well.

He was an unknown mold, so an HSO, and rubbery, but neat all the same, slightly bigger than Breyer's MM's.

It's always neat to find old pieces of work and see how much you have progressed with things.

Questioning Things

I'm seriously thinking I need to take another look at my involvement in the hobby. I've only just got into resins these last few months after being in the hobby 5 years, while Firiona is still as she arrived, Oberon is making good progress clothing wise and I hope to have him done in time for the live show later this month along with another commission I have in the works.

But yesterday I received a parcel containing two lovely wee resins and where usually I would be pumped about getting them, I didn't feel much excitement, not like I did when I heard theyd been listed a couple weeks back. Maybe it's time for a step back from the hobby, or its just other things happening in my life that's taking all the joy or excitement out of things for me, *sigh* I really hope I get things sorted or things start looking up for me soon, so sick of feeling all over the place.


But until then, I'm still happy to see these two on my shelf, even if Smittyn is just visiting for clothes then heading back to her owner. Ian is so neat, I'm looking forward to having him finished, he'll make a nice young draft of some type.
