Craft - Book Gift 04

71st day of 2017.

I like the idea of book pocket attached to the book covers. Book pocket is relatively easy to make. I cut some slits on 4 corners of the pocket to slid on some cards. That is one of the simplest way to add slots to put name cards if chose to be.

Craft - Book Gift 03

70th day of 2017.

I am very glad to see the stitching pattern turned out as planned. Because the papers are white and thread color is creamy, it is a subtle design to hide the initials. 
First time challenging such a customized pattern, it took me some hours. Time flies, it is rather engrossing and relaxing to stitch the book, I am so surprised when realizing how long I have spent on the stitch.

Decided to go with whatever material I have in hand. I used craft paper to wrap up the recycled white card as a cover.

Reminisce - NaNo Illustrated 004

68th day of 2017.
 
One of the headquarters that the merchant character catered at Eterledge. Located in a common class zone, borderline poor and wrecked old terrace building.

Just a basic typical layout of a residential house, where lower floor are communal space and upper floors are bedrooms. It comes with an enclosed back yard and a open front yard.

hmm... need to figure out where to put stables for horses.

Reminisce - NaNo Illustrated 003

67th day of 2017.

Jumped to a scene where a bunch of not so important group of adventurers + merchant group appear. They are called the Myth Chasers... for now, until maybe I stumbled upon a better name or getting another name when they become more important in the future.

I think it is a good practice round to see how I cranked out hairstyle and clothing for unimportant characters.
