Better late than nothing, right...

So, this is my...

... *Friendship is Awesome* ...

...flowerpot. Or rather plantpot.

Some of my best friends here on VA are represented through their favourite Pokémon. I think I don't have to say who ;3


Image
So, this is one view...

Image
... and another...

Image
... and another.

The used items are in this spoiler:
Spoiler:
Image
One button became a watering can.

Image
Another button became a shovel next to Gardevoir.

Image
And button number 3 was sewn to be a ribbon.

Image
The cotton stick is now a sign of what is planted here (partly).

Image
And the two drinking straws became a ladder to support little Mareep and Ampharos.

Image
All together...
The figures are made of Modena. It's a japanese.... model clay? used for these typical little food/cake/sweets-chains, or even puppets.
The violet thingy on the right is some cloth I sewed together to become a flower... well. Can't see a flower in this, just consider it a ribbon, kay? There are actually two of this.

And here some detailed shots from every Pokémon included... (BEWARE. Many photos.):
Spoiler:
Image
Work in progress. The Santa-cup holds water to smoothen the edges. The sheets on the right are some sketches, but due to bad light they're not visible... sorry. Dragonair, Chatot and Mareep are already finished, and Ampharos' head. :'D
Image
The two drinking straws were way tooooo long, so I cut them off to the needed length.
Image
A view from above...
Image
Image
Meowth and Whimsicott from one view...
Image
... and the other. Yes, the thingy on the back of Whimsicott is missing, but I considered it not needed since it sits with it's back to the flowerpot. Also, after the contest is finished and I don't have to take any other photos, I will glue them all to their place.
Image
Mareep and Ampharos from behind...
Image
... and front.
Image
Image
Dragonair...
Image
And Chatot.
Image
Gardevoir...
Image
... and a group shot.
Image
And a detailed shot...
Image
... of Aron.
Yeah, so... this is it. Sorry for those maaaaaaaany photos, and that the plants change in some photos. I forgot the name tag at the beginning, so some of the detail-photos have only the clovers in it. Just mentioning so noone gets confused.
I wanted to show every single piece of work, because this was really a pain in the... hand. I also wanted to paint them, but I think I won't have the time to do so.

Greetings,
a-chan

Yeah... I realy have no talent for crafting/drawing and so on... but well, I tried it!

The Unowns in the Ruins also want to have something from summer and so they decided tho change their colour, to make the Ruins more summer-like... And now you can see this at one wall in the Ruins:

And a closer look:

My little Pokémon Family decided to take a walk and watch out for a nice place to take a picnic.
Near to the forest they’re living is a really huge cornfield, so they decided to spread out their large blanket to sit down
in middle of the nice smelling cornfield and have a large fruit juice cocktail.

Here are the materials I worked with.
(I ran out of wool that I used for cherubi, shuppet and the blanket, namely red, black and grey xD)
Spoiler for for the materials:

All three Pokémon, the blanket, the cocktail glass and the flowers are crocheted by me.
To create the flowers, I colored the Buttons and glued them on the crocheted flowers.
The Umbrella is a colored piece of Paper on a colored cotton stick.

Hey ya,
here is my entry for the contest:



Summer Shipping with Ms. Kalos


I made a colorful luxury ship out of colored paper, cartons, newspapers, watercolor and glue. The swimming pool is out of colored paper and the umbrellas are made with colored paper and wooden sticks (only one is a cotton stick). I used the artworks from Virtuadopt for my Pokemon on the ship, of course the colors and accessories are a little bit different.
Pikachu is looking like an agent with the sunglasses and for Diglett it isn´t funny anymore. It is seasick. So good, that Sentret has a lifebelt in his hands. Charmander is laughing about Pikachus style.


Pictures:

• the complete ship (side view)
Spoiler:

• the Pokemon
Spoiler:
Image
• one cotton stick as umbrella
Spoiler:
Image
• two drinking straws as safety wall (nobody wants to fall in the water)
Spoiler:
Image
• three buttons as windows for the captain
Spoiler:
Image
I hope, you like it. :)

Shipwreck Island
Rufflet and Pikachu decided for their summer vacation this year to charter a cruising boat for travelling around different oceans and places. But during their preparation they've missed some points - espacially the Bermuda Triangle. They did not vanished - what a relief! - but shipwrecked on a small island. While they're waiting for help - if ever someone is searching for them (they just hope the drift bottle will be found early enough) - they make the best of it and enjoying the weather on their freaking awesome cruising boat!

Final Entry
Spoiler:
Image
1. Three buttons
Spoiler:
Two of the buttons I used for the mechanism to put down and pull up the life raft.
Image
Image

The third one is for the wheel of Captain Pikachu!
Image

2. Two drinking straws
Spoiler:
The drinking straws are for the mounting of the life raft.
Image

3. One cotton stick
Spoiler:
And last but not least - the cotton stick is now the paddle for the life raft.
Image
4. Additional pictures - and details
Spoiler:
Image
Image
Image
Image
They can even use the inside of the boat, do sunbathing on the foredeck, enjoying the view from the upper deck or go fishing with the life raft - the life raft is able to be moved with the strings.

Image
The whole wooden floor of the boat is hand drawn. Every single plank has its own design!
Interested in trades? Just leave a note in the trade station, but please write an PM, too! (too busy atm)

Marill is spending the day on a lake. It has brought a parasol and a hat to protect itself from the sun and of course, its favorite drink. And it's taken a cue from Azurill - it has brought a floating tire.
3 buttons, 2 drinking straws and 1 cotton stick
Spoiler:
3 buttons - Marills eyes and and one on its hat
2 drinking straws - one as a drinking straw and one as Marills tail
1 cotton stick - pole of the parasol
