And by new direction, I mean, ah, a direction in general. Hehe.
Waffley's Craft Corner will feature pictures of my customized vinyls, my clay creations and all sorts of surprises. In addition, a lot of these pictures have never been posted publically before!
The Craft Corner is a continuing project, and shall be updated on a fairly regular basis.
I am also now apart of FurAffinity. I am posting select artwork there as a way to reach out to new communities. And the Furry community is a pretty big one.

Meeting Fozzie
From May 15th to June 2nd, The Dart Gallery in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia exhibited a large number of Muppet inspired art pieces, ranging from paintings to sculptures, in celebration of Jim Henson's tragic passing 25 years ago.
The highlight of the display, for me, were the Muppets puppets on loan from Terry Angus, a Muppeteer who's resume literally reads off like a documentation my childhood.
To be in front of Fozzie Bear, Gobo and Red Fraggle, Gonzo, and Animal, was such a strange feeling. I honestly felt like Fozzie was going to start talking at any moment.
Now, these were not the actual puppets from their respective series. Apparently, those puppets fell apart ages ago due to the materials they were comprised of falling apart from wear. However, Fozzie and the Fraggles were constructed from the same design specs as were used in the their respective shows. Gonzo and Animal however were from the Master Replica collection.
All in all, I hope this isn't my last encounter of the Muppet kind.

The Monsters Forty Years In The Future
This is definitely not the same Surfing Waffle you're familiar with. (Well, familiar with if you've been following me for any length of time.) I wanted to try to convey a story with this piece. Here we see Waffle, clearly aged and haven gone through a heck of a lot over the years, uses a rusted Mr.Sawblades-For-Hands in his chainsaw form, to defend two children from shadowy assailants in an old wood cabin.
I also erased the shadow from the girl's eye to try to infer a reason why the monsters may want to risk getting chainsawed.
Oh, and yeah, this piece was inspired by Lone Wolf and Cub.

CON REPORT; NerdCon 2015
May 23rd was the date of the second ever NerdCon, and my second ever convention table, at the Rath Eastlink Community Centre in Truro. If you recall, my first convention table was AubCon at the Auburn Drive High School on April 26th of last year.
There were many other vendors at the convention. Some familiar faces. Not as many cosplayers as I expected but they were all pretty dang awesome ones.

Rediscovering; Dino-Riders (episode 3)
The Rulon Stampede starts off as it sounds, with the Rulons rampaging towards Dino-Rider territory. Llahd, who's voice actor sounded much deeper, warns Questar of the attack. Questar's instructions illustrate the Valorain train of thought, they prioritize the well-being of their dinosaurs. Rulons not so much.

Rediscovering; Dino-Riders (episode 2)
The first episode where we get to see the series intro. Yungstar and Serena are racing Deinonychus as they hear the Tyrannosaur, Yungstar's facial expressions really amused me. The T.Rex, partially wearing Rulon armour, is fighting a Stegosaurus, and actually bites it on the neck, making it bleed! The Stegosaur is still able to carry the Dino-Riders to safety, while Krulos is still creeping after the Rex. For the first time we see some singular Rulons, Croc being the only one named at the time.

Rediscovering; Dino-Riders (episode 1)
Ah, the 1980s, was there ever a better time to be a kid? Some of the greatest franchises ever started off during that time, and are still with us today in some capacity or another. The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The Transformers. He-Man. G.I. Joe. The Thundercats. Even Hulkamania started off in the '80s.

INFINIILANDERS!!! (Fake toy line)
So this year, instead of cards, I thought I'd do something really goofy to introduced new characters, lololol.

That's right, I have a blog!
I'm going to start uploading content again to this blog. Even though I never really had a sizeable audience and Blip ate my videos, I miss making stuff on a (semi-)regular basis.
So, I'll be posting new art, writings and photos here, but I'm not sure about new videos just yet. (I'm not sure what I'll be doing about the second blog just yet either.)
Meh, I'll figure something out eventually.
