Pippaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Hey there! Thanks for visiting. I've got 3D prints, personal story ideas, dragons, and fanart. Pretty mixed bag here, but it's all my creations. I don't post often, but I hope you like what you see!

Some of the unique Beheadeds I've made for customers

Update rant below for those who want to read -

Yes, I'm aware I've been radio silent for over a year at this point. I'll own up to something. I didn't learn to have much discipline growing up. It's only now that I'm learning to pace myself and work slowly, rather than going at full blast and working until I'm burned out and don't want to do anything for months. It's been a wild ride, but I'm glad it's settling now - better late than never, eh?

I've been working on my figures on and off all this time, and I'm in an on period at the moment thanks to one of the above fellows. Every time he gets a special request I end up overhauling his parts with everything I've learned, and he's become a far better action figure for it. I'm sure that there are still ways he can improve that I haven't discovered yet.

But all that said, I've also learned I make promises that are far too grand. I suppose I've known that for a while now, but I always hoped this time would be the time I actually lived up to them. Perhaps I should refrain from doing so for a while, at least until I can actually be a more reliable person.

I'm still working on my figures, and I do plan to open up my shop again with multiple new ones. But I cannot say when, even with Hollow Knight: Silksong finally on the horizon. That's the kind of pressure that creates burnout within me, so I won't even try to say I'll make that date. Just know that I'm always working on it.

I'll be back eventually.

When you go to remake your old model and you realize how off it was

That's right guys we're remaking everything

The Silksong addiction has fully set in

Gee bill, I actually made TWO figures as part of this project for @theblueskyphoenix. This is the 2003 version of Fugitoid, who ended up being very easy to model. He was a super fun little aside who still managed to teach me a few blender tricks.

And that balance, tho.

Bit of a departure from the figures I usually design, but, enter Fugitoid. This project has consumed my life for the last several months. I asked my good friend @theblueskyphoenix what I should model during my burnout, and we settled on this design of hers. He was super fun to work on, and I ended up learning a ton and gaining a bunch of confidence with Blender.

Thank you Aileen, as always, for the inspiration!

May I ask, when will our vessel be back in stock? I didn’t have Etsy last year so I wasn’t able to get it

I'm sorry for my late response! Don't worry, I believe I should be able to list more of the good old figures within the next few months - after I finish overhauling them, of course. They're pretty outdated, and I've learned a lot about building figures in the meantime, so I just want to make them as strong and reliable as I can before I list them again.

I've been wanting to share this stupid thing since forever.

My good friend @hattorus had the bright idea to draw our little friend group's ocs in the style of Tighten when he drew himself and Megamind. "Two tanks swordfighting", you know. It was so funny to me, I just had to draw my boys in honor of our Super Team.

Some dragon guys who appeared in a dream of mine in August of 2024.

[pippatis]

Gonna post some backlogged drawings.

First, Apollo <3 @theblueskyphoenix

[pippatis]

Treat, of course!

I have no costume, but I do have 3D prints, and a lot of chocolate. Please take some.

My apologies for trying to draw you but having no idea what you look like lol

[pippatis]

Future Serah in a business suit. I think it's a little tight on her

I know it's been a long time since I posted any of my ocs but it's forever too easy for me to draw this big scary strong lady

[pippatis]

I've seen a couple of these large lovely ladies recently and I think they are beautiful

Got a new job a few weeks back, so I haven't had much time to make stuff, let alone post. I hope to reach an equilibrium between work and personal projects soon, but as always, I'm slow. Expect me to be really selfish and take a ton of time, because that's just what I do

I had to share this here because I'm still geeking out about my friend drawing Serah. Please give them some love if you can

[pippatis]

I tried to post this earlier but for some reason it didn't take, so I'm trying again. Come on Tumblr, I already forgot to post this once

Drew the boi again for @theblueskyphoenix's birthday. This man is too much fun I swear

Maybe it's a good thing it failed the first time because I realized I can share some wips too, so here they are. And also the bonus DST-style Edmond :)

I've recently become obsessed with print in place models, but of course I went so hard with my first project I ended up having to create it in parts anyways

And a complimentary glowing orange one because a friend wanted it

@theblueskyphoenix

I saw a store called "Cato Fashions" on my recent road trip and felt a great overreaction

The first concept sketches of Dall's Sentinel branding. I wouldn't end up keeping these designs later, but I still kinda like this canvas. Still need to figure out that seal, though.

My very first 3D printer, which I bought in 2020, has recently suffered a malfunction of it's motherboard that would be too expensive for me to reasonably fix. As a result, I've decided to say goodbye to the old machine.

Never let it be said that I am not a sentimental person, though, because I felt compelled to memorialize it in the form of it's very own miniature 3D printed replica.

Thought it would also be fitting to have my first Pure Vessel, who was nearly all printed on that machine, pay homage to it as well.

Please join me in saying goodbye to my old X-Maker. You got me into this hobby. Printed so many Hollow Knight parts in your time, made so many of my customers happy. You will be missed.

I also wanted this post to be a sort of update for those of you who have been watching my Etsy. I'm going to be out of town for the remainder of June, and possibly the beginning part of July too, so I won't be selling any physical figures during at least that amount of time. I realize that I have been releasing new figures extremely slowly, and I've wanted to rectify that for a while now.

That is why I likely won't be selling any printed figures until I have a new one, or multiple, to include in my lineup. The death of my first printer has luckily spurred some motivation in me to 3D model once again, and I've been working on some personal projects aside from this tiny one. But after that, I'm going to do my damnedest to make some more Hollow Knight figures. Might branch off into Rain World territory as well, but I'm not totally sure yet.

Rest assured, I'll be working on it. Thank you all for your patience.
