So I totally made the Garrus wall scroll from this post happen. Sorry the pictures are not that great, I might be able to get better ones tomorrow in some sunlight.
This was a prototype I made to see if I could get this to look good fairly efficiently so I could make a bunch. I am proud to say that, having never sewn with a sewing machine before in my life, it somehow turned out okay! The fabric was printed at Spoonflower, and the scroll is hemmed and mounted on wooden dowel with a ribbon for hanging.
This one is spoken for, but I now have the confidence that these will look nice on people’s walls so I’m going to order more! I will be selling them online and hopefully at the conventions I’m going to (Fanime and Otakon so far) this year. I’m not sure what the price point will be yet either… I am still debating while I calculate the cost of materials and labor. I will post more information about them as I get to that point!
Edit: Got a better picture this morning!
Science is lovely in silk (at least it is in the hands of Karen Kamenetzky).
Kamenetzky on her work:
I dye, paint and stitch cottons and silks to create boldly colored wallhangings inspired by microscopic/cellular imagery - a kind of visual invented biology with textiles. I find this imagery metaphorically rich since all change fundamentally happens on this infinitesimal level.
I just went back through over 900 liked posts and dug out all the art tutorials so i can keep track of them. I guess this might be helpful to some of you guys, so here you go.
Here we go then!

OK that’s really it for these. I’m glad people liked the first set so much. :] I’ve been doing lots of silly Mass Effect stuff lately. I’m sure I’ll draw more later, Shepard
So I didn’t know that fucking dragons existed. Just look at them. Just fucking look.
They hide under a disguise of feathers and call themselves bearded vultures. But I see through their lies.
Want one as a pet? Well they’d be $9000 dollars, but that’s hypothetical because you simply cannot have one. Also, they like to eat dead parrots and dolphins and that’s out of your budget too. Ablubblubbloo…
this bird is me and the look on that guy’s face proves it, that’s what happens if you’re close to me, you look disorientated and slightly constipated
i love vultures. i love love love love loooove ‘em.
whhhhat
I know i just saw it for the first time this week but I never imagined this bird could be that huge!

The idea for this came from SA poster RaspberryCommie, and a couple of the ideas were contributed by SAers too! This is more Mass Effect silliness but the idea was too cute not to do, plus I like crayons a lot.
Mass Effect 3 Spoilers, obviously
OH

THIS IS THE BEST.
You’re a good solider, James Vega.
(P.S. Skool you’re just killing it lately!)
Hanging Out With Garrus (All) - It’s hard to choose a favourite!
I know 4 of these are reposts but i kinda like the idea of having them all up in one tumblr post, besides you still get 4 new ones so shaddap.
That’s it for now! I don’t plan to do more, but you never know. If I do more it won’t be for a while though.
Scenes of domesticity or illustrations of lulls from big, loud action series are my very favorite thing. This is a favorite thing.
