JFK Anime Club

Fun Mess

2009-06-22T16:13:00.007-04:00

Last week was Day 1 of making “Ichigo Hollow Mask”, some of you came to the Club but a lot of you didn’t, and those of you who didn’t come missed a lot of FUN.

We used Newspaper, Water, and Flour to make Papier-Mâché masks that resemble Ichigo’s mask (main character from Bleach) when he turns into a Hollow. Thanks to all the members who came, the activity was a success AND a huge MESS. By the end of the meeting, everyone was covered from head to toe in white sticky flour paste.

I would have liked to show some pictures but Alex broke the camera…Alex you Suck!!! LOL

The masks are all dry and ready for painting this Thursday. See you soon!!!

Open Your World

2009-05-16T12:40:00.006-04:00

Here is a doodle from one of our creative people at the club, Kristally. The artist named the little girl Bonnie, in the drawing she seems to have opened a door to a magical world. When I look at the drawing it reminds me a lot of Alice in Wonderland, I think that is what she was going for.

Here is a link to Kristally's blog were she will be posting more of her art.

Finished Hollow Mask

I am done making the Hollow Mask and here are some pics:

It is pretty easy to make but it takes a while to dry before you can put paint on it, so it’s going to take two days to make.

No worries we are making the mask during the summer when we meet every week.

See you next meeting on May 14, we're making SUSHI!!! be there!!!

Since I don’t know your skill level in sewing I made this fairly simple Step by Step picture tutorial for you guys. In this tutorial you will learn how to make a pattern and sew two pieces of fabric together by using a Straight Stitch (Running Stitch).
Together with the Tutorial I added a link to a website that will show you how to do a Running Stitch. Also I used some Japanese terms that you might not know so I added a link to explain what an Onigiri is.

I hope the Tutorial is easy to follow please give it try. If you have any questions on how to make the Onigiri post a comment.

Being the Geeks that we are we love any kind of merchandise relate to our favorite Anime/Manga and there are many BUT most of us don't have the money to buy them, therefore we make our own...well at least i make my own because it is cheap and fun.

So I invite you guys to post your Anime/Manga related crafts here and show off your skills.

Very soon we will have Otaku Crafts at one of the regular club meeting for you guys who don't have skills to learn how to make your own.
