How dare you suggest I finish a project before starting another one! Starting new projects is how I distract myself from the upsetting heap of projects I haven't finished.

Spa Day 2 - Client(s): Jade & Anise

Two blind-box/gashapon figures from Tales of the Abyss. Both had a bad case of stickiness - even their hard plastic stands were sticky!

Like with Ed's coat, I went to work with alcohol and cottonballs and the difference was amazing. Even the stands are un-sticky!

These figures are deceptive. Jade is no taller than 5 inches and Anise is smaller, but they're incredibly detailed. I doubt I got all the coating off them, but I can at least touch them and put them back on display.

(I may actually sell Anise; undecided.)

My attention has been drawn to this packaging design from HP, which presumably someone approved.

Hey, so I made an online course to teach absolute beginners the basics of HTML/CSS. I’m so gosh-darned proud of it — and the three years I spent putting it together. I put a lot of myself in there to make it the sort of welcome mat into front-end development that we need to get more folks coding.

Now, I’m also super shy about sharing stuff like this. But I’d really love for you to check it out and pass it along to those who need that welcoming path into the front end.

It's Pride Month, so remember:

Trans men are men,

Trans women are women,

And now that agender people have destroyed the very thing that had imprisoned them, I fear their blood lust cannot be sated and further destruction will continue...

Well, hopefully. If I did manage to remove the entire sticky coating, it should stay clean and I'll be happy. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on him, though.

Basically, the coat was so gross that even if I'd wrecked it, it wouldn't be any worse than it already was. I think it had sat by the sink in the 'get to cleaning this random crap' pile for more years than I want to count.

Maybe when I get all this done I can compile some stuff-cleaning-tips-for-nerds.

Next clients, when I can: Jade and Anise gashapon from Tales of the Abyss.

If Ed is not one of the very early Square-Enix Play-Arts figures, he's from whatever became them. At the time he was incredibly affordable, but also well-articulated and, like, those accessories. IIRC he has his spear as well that's still with my FMA stuff.

The line also had Al and Winry, though I'm not sure I still have either. Al was notorious because the front came off his armor except it was nearly impossible to actually remove. I don't think I ever managed to do it.

But seriously, stellar figures. I'm really glad that I was able to fix Ed's coat.

Spa Day 1 - Client: Edward Elric('s Coat)

With a bad case of plastic stickiness (seriously, you could pick the coat up, let go, and it'd stay on your hand), Ed's coat needed help.

Reddit suggested rubbing alcohol and after three gentle-but-thorough applications via cotton-ball the stickiness has gone from, like, 9/10 to 1.5/10.

Apparently the stickiness is from a finish coating that needs to be removed entirely. It didn't harm the color or tampos on the coat but YMMV.

Ed's alternate hands and arms are all fine. Different plastic.

I've cleaned off a chunk of countertop to be a "dolly spa", though atm it's a doll-pony-gashapon-general-toys spa.

This is arguably to clean up some toys to sell, but also take care of condition issues on stuff I'm keeping.

It's a lot of Monster High. Really fun doll-line, love them but kinda overdid with collecting. Also notorious for condition issues, like, right out of the box. My summer is going to be washing doll hair.

Current customers: MLP G1 Boy Pony, gashapon Jade & Anise from Tales of the Abyss, Ed Elric's red coat.
