Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· 2d

Tonight we all logged onto Big Walk with the express intent to lock ourselves in a room for 30 minutes and work on art while we were in there. Here’s what I made in that time.

A Big Walk character with a dark blue-green head, black body and dark green legs. They are seated on the ground, cross-legged while wearing a whiteboard in their backpack. They are sleeping and someone has written “kick me” on the whiteboard.

It is a portrait of the host of the lobby who booted the game so we could go hang in the room and do nothing for 30 minutes but hey we’re doing nothing anyway so we brought their idle character with us.

There’s still a sticker design in here, I think!

The inkling from the previous artwork, cropped to the bust up. A blue speech bubble below them says “We can RAID it!”

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· 23d

Happy Raiders day! I started this artwork with the plan to create a sticker of the Mechanic, and then somehow it turned into a whole print design! #splatoon #splatoonRaiders

Illustration of the Mechanic from Splatoon Raiders. They are depicted as a slightly muscular inkling with brown skin, and a “hairstyle” with blue, teal and orange tones. They are holding an adjustable wrench in front of their face, peeking through the gap at the “mouth” of the wrench.

They are leaning against a palm-like tree. In the background is a beach where Frye and Big Man can be seen and a distant Shiver in the ocean. Even further out on the horizon are shapes reminiscent of a Salmon Run level

Made a rigid heddle loom this week! My first time cutting 6mm MDF on my laser cutter. Ostensibly this is for my husband, who has been getting into fibre crafts. Design and plans from www.instructables.com/DIY-Laser-Cu...

Photo of a laser cut MDF frame. Two wide u-shaped pieces are bolted to four wooden dowels, positioned at each “corner” of the u. Cradled in the middle is the heddle block - made from a sandwiching together of MDF and clear acrylic. A green acrylic yarn is threaded through six gaps in the heddle and a few rows of green and yellow yarn have been woven through the threads.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 28

PS I make lots of mini Pokémon earrings, here are some of my faves!

Photo of the artist wearing a flutter mane earring, pointing at it somewhat disapprovingly

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 28

Yes!

Photo of the artist wearing an acrylic laser-cut earring styled after the quoted artwork; a blue gecko Pokémon uses its mouth to cling to the earlobe.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 23

I also tried making plaster moulds! I 3D printed forms and made plaster moulds from them. Then I poured slip into the moulds! I want to eventually try doing a mould for a D20 teapot, so I started with a lid. My plaster was 30 year old plaster of Paris - I’ll try with proper plaster in the future.

Photo of a plaster mould of a triangle shape in the top left and the 3d printed plastic form that created it in the bottom right

Photo of an opened two part plaster mould, with a triangle clay form inside. There is very little flashing/overspill but a few bubbles on the surface.

The fully demoulded lid part, showing an extended cylinder on the triangle part. An arrow points out where an air bubble formed instead of taking on the form of the divot in the plaster.

Cross section of the lid, showing how the slip has formed a shell around the part.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 23

Between sessions, I worked on tools and other experiments to streamline my making. I made a triangle cookie cutter and a bevel tool that cuts the angles for piecing together the icosahedron teapot.

Photo of a grey tool with fishing line wrapped around it, which will be used as a clay cutting tool. The angle on the left is a 20.9° angle and the right angle is 45°

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 23

I also made a few wheel thrown pieces!

Photo of three small ceramic pieces, freshly thrown. The clay is wet. There are three distinct forms - a bowl at the back, a thick mug at the left and a little vase on the right.

The same clay pieces, dried and decorated with underglaze. Each piece has one thick band of colour around its middle and a small stripe of the same colour at its lip. The left bowl is striped in green, the middle cup is striped in purple and the vase also seems to be purple but it will hopefully come out a bit more red. The vase additionally has some abstract repeated shapes carved into the stripe.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 22

I signed up to some pottery sessions as a birthday present to myself. One of the projects I worked on was an icosahedron teapot!

Photo of a teapot made from buff clay. It is not fully dried, and wrapped in plastic to moderate its drying speed. The teapot has triangular planes and the body is an icosahedron (as used by 20-sided dice). It has a triangle spout and the topmost triangle is its removable lid.

Before I put the hard yakka in to tidy this up, thoughts on this framing for the Sydney coasters? I'd like to retain the same zoom to match the other city coasters, but I'm open to transposing the focus.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 17

Happy Year of the Horse! I made a new coaster design to celebrate.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Feb 6

I painted Se-Jun Park's Worlds winning team for an art exhibition! "Caught 'em All" is running at Working Title Brew Co. in Brisbane throughout February, celebrating 30 years of Pokémon!

Watercolour painting featuring a team of six Pokémon. At the front, a joyful Pachirisu raises a hand. In the back, a Garchomp leaps into the air with its arms ready to attack. Talonflame soars over the back left of the piece and Gardevoir and Gothitelle flank a giant Mega Gyarados in the middle of the painting.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Jan 19

She doesn’t quite sit properly as an earring… might need to give it more length so there’s more clearance between the figure and the side of the wearer’s face.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Jan 19

Flutter mane family. Design is mostly done! Colours will still be adjusted and I need to order beads (I use spare parts for these prototypes and I juuuust barely had enough red-ish beads for two of the three)

Photo of three miniatures made from 3D printed parts, ribbon and beadwork. They resemble the Pokémon Flutter Mane, with slight differences between each model showing iterations in the design.

The middle one is the largest and the two on the sides are the same size, even though the camera makes the one on the right appear larger than the one on the left.

Chenonetta ⏩ Adelaide Artcade@chenonetta· Jan 18

A first draft - now I need to work out how to miniaturise her.
