It's a brilliant idea.

As for stuff I've made, there's really only this:


Which is a rather old piece that I'm still fairly fond of, despite its many flaws.

My apologies for the awful photo quality. The picture was taken with shaky hands, poor lighting, and a camera phone. Not exactly ideal.

Only things I would have are Warhammer miniatures, that I never painted for a lack of time and talent. (Why, GW, why these prices, why the Sigmarines?)

Although there also was that time I broke my brother's Lego Slave 1. Had to reconstruct it twice, because I mounted the firing mechanism backwards the first time. Still, the fact I had to improvise to replace some lost pieces made it a little more unique.

Just a question: What does that Circular Gallifreyan say?

The pic qualiti isn't all goo, it all depends on when my phone likes to work or not.

First one, as a former World of Tanks player who liked the Hetzer and liked Girls Und Panzer even more I couldn't resist doing this after finding a cheap Italeri model:

Ooarai Academy's Team Turtle Hetzer. The thing was a nightmare to build as I wasn't a very experienced model builder back then - not only it is in the small 1/72 scale, the Hetzer is tiny compared to other tank destroyers of the time... the model is just three inches long, barrel included! "Decals" were printed by me "stolen" from a GuP mod for World of Tanks, and I did some small modification to the model (like leaving out the roof-mounted machine gun as it is absent in GuP)

More recently, I'm into building Gundam models. They're addicting! Have two in the works so far, they still need some finishing touches but are already assembled.

Yes, they're customized. Some of the additions are scratch built, some parts are from customization kits, and some are cross-switched between the two.

That YW scroll is amazing! 8D

And kudos to your wife, as well. /o Yay, Oath-takers!

Sorry.
Got nothing else.

Being in Theatre, I know how to use all manner of tools on all manner of materials.

Exhibit 1: Drill press on dice



These were made for our engagement/fake wedding. Mine is on the left, Neshomeh's is on the right.

Now for something bigger and fancier.

Exhibit B: Sewing machine on multiple fabrics.



I made a cloak for Neshomeh (seen here modeling) one Christmas. It is made of faux-crushed velvet (very stretchy) and some kind of satiny fabric (very slick). The hood is velvet inside and out, the satin lines the inside of the rest. There is also a gold knot-work closure.

When I asked for photos of the cloak, Nesh pulled an entire costume out of the closet. Here is a better look at both the cloak and the rest of the costume.



Next time, I would make sure to only have one difficult fabric, the combination of stretchy on slick was a major pain. I'd also need a sewing machine. I borrowed my aunt's for this project.

-Phobos

Here's the most serious piece I've done to date:



It is charcoal and chalk on... I don't remember. Is chalk paper a thing? It's thick gray paper with a noticeable grain. *shrug* I made it in 2008 (if I'm reading my handwriting correctly) as a Christmas present for Phobos, and unfortunately, I rushed the background because I ran out of time. Sigh.

~Neshomeh

Phobos and I have some arts and crafts to share, but my camera battery has to charge first so I can take proper pictures.

Meanwhile, hS, what are the chances of me talking you guys into making another Two Trees candleholder so I can buy it from you? {= D

~Neshomeh

(I thought the colorful badge would be for getting all the badges, but you still don't have the blue and yellow roses or the crossed pens, so I guess not? I'd say it was for posting arts & crafts, but then why doesn't Iximaz have it already?)

I might have to pay a visit so I can steal borrow acquire steal that Gallifreyan wall art and the Two Trees, because those are gorgeous. The other stuff is cool, too, but those are my favorites. :)

Aside from my costumes, which I think everyone's getting bored of, I don't really have too much in the way of home-made fandom stuff, but I do have my own wand... several... a lot...



The one fourth from the right is "my" wand, custom-made to fit the one I got through Pottermore, though the three on the far right are all various wands I had as a kid.


Also, apropos the LEGO discussion further down the thread... I'm about to show how obsessed I am.


The Chamber of Secrets and the Second Task.


The graveyard, Sirius' tower, the Shrieking Shack, and Hagrid's Hut.


The Quidditch Pitch, Diagon Alley, and the Durmstrang Ship. (That's Helm's Deep in the bottom right.)


PoA Hogwarts, the mountain troll, Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, and the Hogwarts Express.


The iconic vehicles.


My favorite piece of any set. :P

(I had to put them all together so that kind of counts as building, right? Right?!)

Especially the Two Trees.
Also, if this is the last time, does this mean you're gonna tell us what each icon means?
Also also, I don't have any fandomish stuff lying around, but I do have a collection of Star Wars LEGO models. And a couple sword-like sticks.
