Chibi Pa Artist Alley Keychains
Hey, look, art! Kind of. But hey, at least it’s something, right?
These are the keychains/charm straps I’ll have at Chibi Pa. The 3DS logos match up with the released colours of the 3DS in the US, so if another colour is up for release before Chibi Pa, I’ll most likely add it in to keep it accurate (I think they’re gonna at the Ice White one next, it’s in Japan right now). Not too many people have the pink one, so I won’t make as many of those.
I had a lot of fun designing the LoveNote game card! I was trying to tweak “Jenni Does Art” into the Nintendo 3DS logo, but it didn’t look right. So I used my regular logo instead, and I feel it fits pretty well. Then my URL is in the bottom where the numbers usually are, I tried to use a font that mimicked that font to make it blend in more.
I’m not too fond of the unoriginal, way-too-overdone-but-still-popular pixelated heart, so unless anyone shouts out HEY KEEP IT, then I won’t be making it.
These won’t be those thin laminated paper charms, I always felt like those were a bit cheaply done. I understand that there’s really nice laminate out there, but it looks less professional and I always feel bad when I don’t buy one that I liked the art of. I found this nice tutorial online to make really nice, high-quality charms using a special Shrinky Dink paper that you print out from your computer instead of colouring in(which I also thought looked too childish), and then coating it with a special waterproof seal that you melt down on top. They look so good that you’d think you bought them in a store! Check it out: http://www.sillybeeschickadees.com/2010/09/shrink-dink-doo.html
So, should the pixelated heart stay or go?
