J: Hatshepsut set (2015)

Blue-black-gold beads in a memory wire with matching earrings (will be hooked), sadly in silver, though. Kinda Egyptian to me, hence the name.

CJ: Going Greek (2014)

Another late arrivals. Greek styled necklaces, The last one is already given away as a gift, the rest are for sale. The clay is once again Craft Crank and they are glazed by my fiancée, since I was rather busy with bigger glaze/patina projects.

In Queen's Garden (2014)

Sorry for the blurriness, I'll be scanning all my A3 works this summer and replacing the photos here with them.

Weaving: The Big Three (2013-2014)

The finished tapestry, you don't believe the amount of work it took... Also... not quite as finished as I want, I'm gonna add glass beads to the bottom. My work, I decide when it's good.

Shaman with a Witchdrum (2014)


Here's a shaman with a witchdrum glyph I made in Korundi last Friday. Had to use the Sámi flag colors.

Stormjewel Crest (2013)

Almost extinct clan by their name, led by a widow and a Civil War survivor.

Nightmask Crest (2013)

Largest dark elf family in my fantasy story. The aqua center is supposed to picture an opal. Was stuck lazy. As always.

Silentlock Crest (2013)

Crest of the leading family in my fantasy story. I'm not that good in designing crests of any kind, so these three I've drawn/painted and planning to or already have woven, are miraculous. These were made slightly in 2013.

Top Model: Queen Meomra WIP (2014)

Queen Meomra is also an elf from the story we write. She was dearly loved by the king and her death when their son was young was a hard blow.

Top Model: Lunar Stormjewel WIP (2014)

My original character, this is what she used to look like, until she was taken captive for hundreds of years. She's an immortal elf, like most of the characters in our story. She was the Lady-in-Waiting for the late queen Meomra.

TD: Lady in Turquose (2013)

This was an interesting project. I used a model from Drawing Shojo of different nationalities and this was ancient... indian? Anyway, I had my fiancée pose for me too. I'm kinda pleased with this, only problem is I forgot how the fabric folds and that digs me still. I'm happy with the hair though. And the gold jewelry, though they could have more shine in them. Maybe her facial features a tad bit too Caucasoid to my taste.

Reconstruction of Nike of Samothrace WIP (2013)

Nike is one of my favorite goddesses, first one I ever drew. It bothers me that her statue is this broken, so I'm trying to draw her complete, so she can get what she deserves.
This will be my take of this and I have honest to goddess, no idea how this will turn up eventually.

SI: Glaphyra (2011)

Another stock character. I have done a better version, but this alongside Eos are framed at my home, but not by me.

FA: Anari of the Ice (2010)

 One of my OC characters, actually pretty much a stock character, in a way too. Heavily japanese themed, which I like very much. Here are some in progress scans of it and to my irritation, I noticed the furisode-type sleeves and corselet would have looked better white.
Background was a tough call to decide what to do, but I ended up going with tundra and desert with the red Japanese rising sun.


I found with this that I don't wanna do anything of this caliber on colored paper with colored pencils ever again. OW MY HAND!

J: Gold&Honey - Princess Tiara - The Forest King (2007)



Gold &Honey
My favorite. Yellow-ish plastic pearls, gold metal wire, gold aluminium wire, glitter glue and some blood. The wires were sharp. Not the sharpest images, but I rarely do active stuff in daylight, I'm sometimes nocturnal. It's a little LotR inspired. This was supposed to have flowers and vines on it, but it turned out beautiful enough to be on its own.

Little Princess Tiara
Part of a story and also part of a set of three. Circlets for Queen and Crown Princess are part of this, but they were the first two I ever made, so I'd rather keep them in the box and never show them around. I'm fond of this because it's so cute.

The Forest King
Inspired by what Tolkien said about Mirkwood's King Thranduil and his circlet. My take of it. I think I need more manly things on it.
