I wish I had so many collectibles that keeping them organized was a problem.

Shall we compare?



Your lucky that it is all in one room.
Right now mine is spread in 4 rooms.
I took all of my stuff out of storage.
I had a 12X30X12 unit.
Now it is all here.
Most of what is in boxes
is going on to my ebay Store
Many different collectables
Toys are going next
this is to feed my Art Hunger.

Nope. Photo copy. The original is already scanned & locked away.

It just ended friday. I don't have it yet. It is a copy of another one by the same artist though. I made 5 copies. The one you see the ink didn't turn out right.

It bugs me that both of them have nin instead of shi on her hand. & ditto on the color. I'll ask him if he's going to.

This is by the guy I had been in contact with earlier.  He wanted $100 for an original pencil, and he retains the rights to make color prints of the work for future sales.  Looks like you got a deal on the price.  I was thinking of having a commission done of a similar pose, but with a top on and the bust size more in line with the way Billy draws Ana, but his price is out of my range.

You're probably the reason he whipped out 2 w/in 2 weeks then. He had probably never thought of doing Shi before.
That's about the same price as the other one.

Not guilty.  I didn't mention what character I was interested in.  It'll be interesting to see what the color versions look like when he starts posting them for sale.

A couple of recent aquisitions (as some of you know)





I sent an email to the artist w/ some questions
concerning if he were planning on doing color prints, previous Shi pieces, & pointing out that the kanji he used is "nin" instead of "Shi".  &

That would be kind of like superman w/ a big A for aquaman on his chest. LOL

I asked 3 questions & he gave me 1 answer. I had to try to decipher which question the answer went w/. After a 2nd email, it worked out better.

1) He said that these were his 1st 2 Shi.

2) He is wanting to do #2 in color. He'll let us know when it is complete. I think #2 would look better, but to each his own, I guess.

3)He asked me for a pic of the correct kanji. He said for the color he is going to change the mistake.

Now that he knows about us, I guess we will be seeing more Shi material from him, especially if he thinks he can tap into this market and make a few bucks.

I don't know if I mentioned, but I managed to salvage all the Shi stuff & personal stuff on my laptop. It only cost $160. Pretty happy about that. I figured it would cost 3x that much.

I'm pretty happy, IN FACT.... DUMBFOUNDED that I just won a Visions of the Golden Empire uncut sheet of cards for $71 (including shpng). I love when people list things wrong. I asked the seller if it was an uncut sheet & he added my question & his reply to the post after most people had already looked @ it.  Now that just leaves an uncut sheet of mega cards to find & phonecard sheets. Oh, & 3 missing phone cards.

I was telling Joe the other day about a pair of new toys I have (but haven't seen yet. I've been laying off art buying lately as I realized my weapons collection has horribly been neglected & I hadn't added any new toys to it since my previous $80,000 mistake (ex-girlfriend).


SO! I started by adding a nice pair of Tibetan claws made of copper in China. I am UBER depressed that I can't afford what I really want right now, so these will have to do.
What I REALLY wanted was an indian pata. I finally found one that was affordable, but still out of my current price range since Lickie insists I get a new tv next. I've been watching this one for 8 days now. http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-INDIAN-PATA-SWORD_W0QQitemZ6619161596QQcategoryZ13957QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Nobody had bid on it so I was hoping I could offer the seller a ridiculously low amount ($300) when it ended w/ no buyers & ask if he could hold it for me for a couple of months. Alas, somebody bid on it today, darn it. GRRRR

What I bought a few weeks ago & it is finally @ home (& I am not) are these. Enjoy.




I'm going to take some pics of them when I get home & then send them on to a swordsmith buddy of mine who wants to give them a makeover & do some scrolll work on them.
