Wanna make your costumes shiny and bright? Want to transform into a living Christmas tree?

I HAVE A NEW BOOK! And it’s only 5$! 

http://www.kamuicosplay.com/product-category/books/

I’ll teach you all the basics from choosing the right LED, calculating and building a circuit over working with shiny gemstones, acrylic globes and even plexiglas! Also how to hide batteries and build cool light up props! Check it out! 🙂

A weird thing I find incredibly helpful for art/writing.

Eplans.com is a website that sells blueprints for houses. 

This might not seem that helpful but if you want a characters house you can make selections based on what sort of house you want them to live in.

Then browse through the results and find the house you want. Then you can view the blueprints and have a room layout for that house, which can help with visualising the space they live in.

It makes describing generic homes so much easier.

  • ability to imitate every sound they hear
  • yes……

Animated DIY Card Cleverly Mimics Computer Loading Screen

Better yet, it’s animated, and as you pull the card from the envelope, the bars appear to “load.” Nutter created a detailed, step-by-step guide on the Instructables website so you too can make your own version of this customizable item.
