Papercrafting about fandoms! Right now I am particularly interested in The Avengers, Turnabout Musical/Ace Attorney and nerdfighteria, but there is some other stuff here as well.

Tumblr @staff have been silent about the use of this site by white nationalist bloggers, while numerous other sites (see this post) have made actions to ban nazis/white nationalists/”alt-right”/fascists. Tumblr needs to know their lack of action is unacceptable. I love my tumblr community and want to stay, but if this continues, I will have to considering leaving.
I suggest we push back, and unite to boycott on a certain date. I’m arbitrarily suggesting September 1st - it’s nine days from this post, and that gives it enough time to hopefully get spread as far as possible. Boycotts only work if lots of people do it. Please consider joining me and logging off tumblr on September 1st, to let them know we’re serious about their apathy towards white nationalism.
The Scent of Fresh Lemons II.
I’ll probably make a third one someday. They don’t exactly correspond to the different reprises of the song, because the first two both get cut off mid “youth”, but the scrapbook pages work out better this way. All three will be focused on different aspects of the song: this one reflects the overblown nature of the music, and the first one I made follows the theme of “lemons.” The theme for the third one will be youth/the past, once I work out the details.
How do they rise up, rise up, rise up? How do they rise up, rise up high?
The Sandstorm (WTNV #19a/b)
Made with patterns from http://www.anthonyherreradesigns.com/starwarssnowflakes2015.
I will probably reblog new art there, so feel free to follow it instead if you like the other stuff I’m posting.
Welcome to my secondary blog! You can expect to see lots of Avengers stuff here, along with anything else I really like.
Captain America’s various shields. I’m thinking of doing pages for other Avengers soon.
Images are ink and watercolour.
A watercolour based on one of David Aja’s frames in the Hawkeye comics.
Steel Samurai Poster!
Inspired by Path to Glory from Turnabout Musical.
Schedule Note:
I’m on a school term again now, so posts will be less frequent. I’m aiming for one post every two weeks, I can’t make any promises.
And now, a follow up to a previous message from the Sheriff’s Secret Police.
This is a reminder that all citizens must memorize the list. It has come to our attention that some of you failed to memorize the list when it was first presented. For your safety and protection, we will provide one more opportunity for you to memorize it. A poster presenting the list has been produced. Only one copy will be printed. It will be on display in the back of the public library, past the Biographies section. Reading direction will not be clarified. For your safety, you must memorize the list in the correct order. This has been a reminder from the Sheriff’s Secret Police.
Welcome to Night Vale is awesome! I’ll probably make another more elaborate Night Vale page soon.
Battle of Wits from Turnabout Musical.
I painted the plate, spear, and van, but had to print out the photo.
Here’s one based on the song “I Love Science” by Hank Green. You can watch his music video here.
The Objection Song is by far the most meta song in Turnabout Musical, so I thought I’d go for references to the game and the fact that it is music.
My take on the wonderful song “Tomorrow, At Last” from Turnabout Musical. You can listen to it here. More information about my design process below the break.
Layout: I split the page in half diagonally both ways. The moon on the top left and the sun on the bottom right represent the parts of the song that take place the night before the trial and the morning of it. Perpendicular to that division, I also split the page into Phoenix’s half (blue) and Edgeworth’s half (red, because I don’t have any paper that’s quite the colour of Edgeworth’s suit). Symbols of people who support Phoenix’s belief that Edgeworth is innocent appear on the top right, and those who agree with Edgeworth that he should be found guilty are on the bottom right. I used white for backgrounds on Phoenix’s side to represent his hopefulness, and black on Edgeworth’s side to represent his despair.
Details: Files: These are the DL-6 files that Phoenix is spending the night reading, with another folder behind for the files for the current case Magatamas: Maya’s orange magatama is on top of Mia’s ghostly purple magatama, showing that Mia is still supporting her. Gun: The gun from Edgeworth’s nightmare Scales: Based on the scales over the judge’s bench in the courtroom. Evidence: The metal detector, stack of lake photos and headphones represent the major contributions of each witness so far (present because of the lines in the song “We’ve given you the fact/ We’ve done all we can do/ We’ve all got you back, Nick/ Now it’s all up to you,” sung by Gumshoe, Lotta, and Larry. Calendar: The colour scheme of the calendar is based on von Karma’s outfit. The two pages that show in part are December 28, 2001 and December 28, 2016. Based on von Karma’s line “It’s taken 15 years but it was worth the wait.” Police logo: Present because of the line “We've helped the prosecution/ Convict a prosecutor” sung by the police (Dustin, Maggey, and Meekins).
Based on Trial by Fire from Turnabout Musical.
"For truth and justice, we will fight--! And for you, I will be there."
This song is great, and it’s reprises awesome as well!
In case it wasn’t clear, the third thing from the left along the top is supposed to be a TV remote.
Here is my interpretation of “Beautiful Christmas Day” from Turnabout Musical. Congratulations to everyone involved with the project on the release of the complete soundtrack. It’s awesome!
These are just a few of Dear Hank & John’s many “sponsors”. DFTBA!
