My 2019 trip to Japan was a life changing experience for me, so I created April’s merch design
My 2019 trip to Japan was a life changing experience for me, so I created April’s merch design as an ode to that trip. Not only did I travel there during the peak of cherry blossom season, I also got to enjoy the experience of hanami while dressed in kimono, so this charm is very much in honor of that. I was a little late on delivering this design due to a couple of factors; the above photos actually depict the second iteration of this design, the first having been reworked to depict seasonal kimono more accurately after conferring with a Japanese friend of mine. The coronavirus has also had an impact on my productivity, which is why I haven’t pinned down a concrete release date for April yet (although I’ll be sure to post here when I do). I hope everyone looks forward to April’s merch regardless of when it becomes available!In semi-related news, KupoCon Montréal was postponed the day after I made my announcement that I would be in attendance. It has since been rescheduled for July 18th; whether I make it to the new event remains to be seen, since I’m not 100% confident the coronavirus situation will be resolved by then, but I sincerely hope to make it if it is. I have so much merch I’m sitting on for it ;_;And while I have your attention, I have two more bits of ISEB-related news to share:I was tapped to create some merch for the Promnis zine, Found Beneath The Stars. FBTS is welcoming to all facets of Prompto and Ignis’ relationship, both romantic and platonic, so please look forward to a piece of merch from me depicting their unique (and sometimes hilarious) friendship!Contributors for the Lost In War Zine have been announced, which includes yours truly! It’ll be my first big FFXV piece since last year, and I’m hoping to make it something truly special for everyone. And if everything goes to plan, it’ll also mark my return to the realm of fanfiction! More details will be forthcoming in the next few weeks and months, but rest assured you can count on me to feature everyone’s favorite strategist in everything I do.That’s all for now! I’ll be sure to update everyone with a release date for April’s merch as soon as I know more. ٩( ᐛ )و -- source link
