Skull duggery

Lana Crooks is queen of plush, for-serious. As an illustrator and costume designer, she has an eye for making things look fantastic, whereas I am still learning which end of the needle is the pointy one.

Here's some info and a short interview with her.

I've been working on making plush skulls for a few months, off and on. I'm simultaneously disheartened and intrigued to hear that she's going to work at it more seriously.

Disheartened, because I don't think anyone else in the small, fertile world of plush is doing that, and I was totally going to corner that market. Intrigued because she'll make them look fantastic, and maybe I can study her work and learn. And, you know, second place behind Lana Crooks is still pretty damn great.

I DO already have a good product-line name for my skulls. She better not steal that too.
