Here is a fairly recent ( I really must get around to updating my website with these!) Kids' Drawing story make for a wee girl, who was very specific with her instructions to me on the drawing, and then also via her Mum who ensured I made the head cream and not yellow, gave her blue eyes, and added in the brown fringe 😊 I decided to also add the rest of the hair and make the hoodie removable from the head and added a little green skirt and some black shoes.

🧵 Adding stuff to my toy trains database is time consuming! I've got 3 reference works open on my desk, so I can record the correct relevant details... just adding a few Lionel signals from the 1920s.

Fortunately, I have most of what I need for references. When I started collecting (2007), our local library had many reference works available. But then I noticed they started getting rid of them.

Started casting parts for my Nintendo (NES) Castlevania inspired Simon Belmont figure. This was started as part of an Instagram art show called “1UP an Homage to Classic Games”.
I’ll be doing 2 color variants, each based on Simon’s appearance in the first two NES Castlevania games.
Created several new parts, some are picture here (tunic, head sculpt, cross boomerang, chain whip), a few more not pictured. Excited to get this piece completed and released soon!

Someone proposed that LEGO make a set for the Stonewall National Monument in New York. It seems really well-designed to me, and LEGO's policy is that if a proposal gets over 10,000 votes, they'll actually consider it and respond. It's sitting around 9,500 votes right now. You can vote for it at the link below.

Just a wee reminder that there's only a few days left of the #CazimodoCrochet competition with the draw taking place next Friday, the 28th. So, if you would like to have a chance to win a free custom made crochet toy, with free postage to wherever you live, make sure to get your entry in before then. To recap:

1. You need to be one of my followers
2. Post a photo of what you would like me to make for you with the hashtags #CazimodoCrochet so I can find it. It can be anything you want, as long as it's a single object.
3. I will announce the winner, drawn at random, on the 28th of February.

This message brought to you by my wee pal Flint, the Crochet Caveman 😊
