Wonder Festival 2015 Summer: Transformers
Once again a multiple companies were showing off a very wide and eclectic variety of Transformers figures. But nothing was more unusual than Takara Tomy's latest addition to the Q Transformers line: Evangelion. Having already done a Masterpiece Optimus Prime figure in Eva Unit-01's color scheme, Takara Tomy has how set their sights on making the the Eva Units themselves transform. These tiny versions of Eva Units 00, 01, and 02 transform into trailer trucks just like Optimus does. But these aren't the strangest crossovers in the Q Transformers line, they've also done, I'm not kidding, Hello Kitty (with a Halloween repaint coming later) as well as the title character from Kami Usagi Rope and his senpai Akira.
On the more normal side Takara Tomy finally had Masterpiece Ironhide and their improved version of Titan Class Devastator in a display case where fans could get up close and personal. I had some reservations about Ironhide at first, but I'm really liking the new photos. I already have Devastator on pre-order so it goes without saying that I'm loving this one.
Meanwhile Fewture Models and Action Toys gave us an early look at their super deformed Fortress Maximus. The figure looks great and is a fairly accurate take on one of the biggest Transformers figures ever made. Silhouettes are still present for later figures like Star Saber, Victory Leo, and Victory Saber among others.
Finally, Prime 1 Studio brought along their latest in high quality statues based on the Transformers live action movies: Lockdown and Steeljaw. These are some exceptionally detailed large statues that will come at an exceptionally large price.
Unfortunately we didn't get to see anything new from Kotobukiya in the D-Style SD model kit line. For now it's still Optimus against five Decepticons.

the cutest hunchbacked animals you’ll ever meet
I’m browsing through a favorite online shop of mine, just seeing what’s what. And then, bam, I see Frida. Who is Frida? Well, she’s the adorable hunchbacked monkey by Franck & Fisher. She’s all sweet-faced, open-armed, and ready to love. Her body is 100% organic cotton, and her clothes are all created from repurposed fabrics, […]

My Romantic Journey On Canvas Class Projects
I've spent the last two weeks in crafting bliss working on my projects from Debby Anderson's "A Romantic Journey On Canvas" at Artful Gathering and couldn't be happier. I may have found a new passion - something I absolutely love.
I can hear you all saying - what a surprise, Linda! You've found a new passion. When it comes to crafting is there anything you've ever tried that you haven't absolutely loved? Probably not.
Well, it is true that I absolutely love to craft and love everything I've learned through my online classes, but when it comes to passion - well, that's a little different. I have a passion for the Victorian era - especially the dresses, for doll making, for genealogy, for floral design, and for history. To all this I would have to add mixed media. I absolutely LOVE mixed media.
My husband doesn't love it as mixed media utilizes lots of different types of supplies so my living room is an absolute mess. You can't even see any of the furniture in there. It's all covered with arts & crafts supplies of one sort or another - all needed for the mixed media projects I've been working on for my online classes.
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Debby's class. Debby Anderson is an unbelievably talented and inspiring jewelry designer and artist. Her online class was fabulous. Her video's were very easy to follow and she explained everything she was doing beautifully. I couldn't be more pleased with her class. If you've wanted to try creating mixed media canvas collage dress form projects Debby's class is a MUST TAKE.
There are 3 projects in Debby Anderson's "A Romantic Journey On Canvas" mixed media online class: one to create a corseted tutu, one to create a wedding gown, and one to create a mixed media angel collage. So far, I've made two corseted canvas's - one on 12" x 12" canvas and one on an 8" x 10" canvas. I've also created a wedding gown on an 11" x 14" canvas.
Here's my first corseted tutu on a 12" by 12" canvas:
Here's a close-up of the dress:
Here's my second corseted tutu on an 8" x 10" canvas:
Here's a close-up of the dress:
Here's my wedding gown on an 11" x 14" canvas:
Here's a close-up of the dress:
The woman pictured in the wedding gown canvas above is my Mother. I love this picture of her and thought it would look beautiful in this mixed media collage. I think it does and hope you would agree.
Can you understand now why I've found a new passion? Beautiful dresses in a mixed media canvas collage - how could I not love that?
