Feeps on tumblr

I've started a tumblr page for the Feeps. I feel like tumblr might be a better fit for the type of photo blogging I do, so I'm giving it a try. I'll be posting several new feep pix over there, including a little photo essay starring that mysterious new feep up above, so if you'd like to follow along just click that link.

Here at the House of Feep, it's pretty much Halloween year round. That said, I don't often make Halloween-specific feeps for some reason. My goal this October is to rectify that, so I've been working away on ghosts and vampires and skull monsters.

Of course, I'm going to be out of town for, like, the first half of October, more or less, so posting will continue to be light for awhile. But my plan, my hope, is to spend the couple of weeks in the run-up to Halloween posting tons of pictures of the monsters I've been working on. So! Fear not, there will be many a feep in the near future.

IS IT OCTOBER YET

Aaaaand new feeps are all up in the Feeping Creatures Etsy Shop! Won't you lend them an eyeball?

Glow-in-the-Dark Snoot Vulture - Feeping Creatures Monster Figurine

I am back from California and the convention, and I have brought the inevitable post-flight/con cold home with me. So I'm moving a little slow. BUT! I am getting several new feeps listed in the Etsy shop this week, so check in periodically to see the new faces.

Prepping for another convention. This time it's Comikaze Expo in Los Angeles, which is happening this very weekend, Sept. 15-16. This will be the feeps' first foray into LA!

Feeping Creatures - Coil Cyclops Monster Necklace

Sorry posting has been so sporadic lately. I keep getting attacked by deadline monsters. They can be rather pesky and persistent, don't you know. But they tend to leave money behind once they've been defeated, so one can't really complain too much.

This is what I've been working on lately. Feep onesies! You can see a whole bunch more in my Etsy store.

Fiery Tentacle Twist - Feeping Creatures monster figurine

Waiting for random knights to show up and storm the castle can be lonely, dull work. Hence, the typical tentacle twist composes angsty poetry to pass the time.

Waiting here in solitude,
Upon the loneliness I brood.
Guarding treasures is my lot,
But such trinkets please me not.
I yearn only to be free
of self-imposed captivity!

As you may have gleaned, the tentacles are really just for show. The monster intends to slay the hero with bad verse.

I'm back from Space City Con. It was a great show! I'm a bit worn out, though ... not sure how THAT happened (gaming until 1:30 in the morning might have had something to do with it).

Feeps at Space City Con: August 10-12, 2012

 I'm off to Houston for Space City Con. This will be my first show in Houston in three years, so if you're in H-town this weekend, stop by and say hi!

Snoot Bird - Feeping Creatures monster figurine

Probably evolved in Madagascar or somewhere like that. This may be true of all feeps, for all I know.

Tentacle Barnacle - Feeping Creatures monster figurine

In just a couple of weeks I will be setting up a table full o' feeps at Houston's Space City Con. It's their first year, and it sounds like it's going to be great! Also, this will be my first visit to Houston in, I think, three years. Come on out, Houston, and support your newest gaming con!

Good news, everyone! The Feeping Creatures Store on Etsy is now set up to accept credit cards directly. This means you don't need to use PayPal if you don't want to. Should make for faster checkout, too, if I am not mistaken. If you give it a try, let me know what you think!

Green & Purple Tentacle Twist - Feeping Creatures monster figurine

Time for the ol' postprandial evening scuttle.

Samurai Feep o' Lantern - Feeping Creatures monster figurine

Posting may be a bit sporadic over the next few weeks - lots of projects, and a bit of travel. I'll update here as often as I can, but don't be surprised if it ain't every day.

Also, damn. Look at how much crappier my photos with the old camera were. But hey, if you're not improving here and there you're doing something wrong.

Striped Snail - Feeping Creatures monster figurine

Clearly this is one of those snails that, as it grows, must find bigger and bigger pieces of discarded candy to live in.

That look of concern - I suppose if you're on the lam, it's tricky to make a break for it when you're worried about your cord catching on something. Of course, it's entirely possible this feep isn't on the lam at all. It might just be horrified at the amount of cat hair I had to Photoshop out of this picture (I even lint-rollered first, dammit).

No rearview mirrors necessary!

At least if you fall in and get devoured, your doom will greet you with a friendly face.
