More Perler Coasters/Semi Retirement

I made some more Perler coasters this afternoon. I also plan on not making these for a while. After my ROM Spaceknight design I told my friend that I was done but then I wanted to just use up some of the colors that I had. I am finding less and less things to be inspired by in terms of making new things and I like making things no one else has. It turns into a combination of 1. Do I want to make this? 2. Why am I making this? 3. What am I doing with this when it is done? I am trying to get rid of the designs I have made on my Facebook page (it is not public) and instead of people saying "Sure, I'll take it!" I get a variation of "You should sell them!" My kitchen contains a mountain of framed designs, loose designs, and massive designs I have no plans for. Well over 1,000 things. That includes the ones on the wall.

Audrey II Perler Bead

Mae this Audrey II from Little Shop Of Horrors based off of sprite designs. I wanted to use different colors but ran out of all kinds of greens so I made this with what I had. It came out nice and cartoony.

Watermelon Cat Perler Bead

I did this watermelon/cat made out of Perler beads. I found a design and can not figure out how to even get to the proper site. Plenty of images online if you search vvv6toma though. Like the way this weird thing came out even though it is about three times bigger than I expected.

Nintendo Power Glove Perler Bead

Made this Nintendo Power Glove out of Perler beads based off of a t-shirt design made by Rilly59.

Muhammad Ali Perler Bead

Made this Muhammad Ali because I have a lot of black beads and not inspired to make anything else right now.

ROM Spaceknight Perler Bead

I decided to make this big ass ROM Spaceknight Perler bead a few weeks back but put it off to focus on other things like writing and even make a soundtrack for this character (click here for that). This ended up being 33 inches wide and 15 ½ inches tall. Somehow actually smaller than I expected. I am glad I went with this pose instead of the one I originally intended since that one was just tall. This is bigger than any frame I own so that's cool. I used a drawing by Loston Wallace, turned it into pixels using Pixel-Stitch, and started redesigning it in Windows. Love the way this came out.

I Made Some Tables

I made tables. For a while I have been looking for some sort of small tables or shelves and got tired of settling and decided to make them myself. Have I ever made a table? No. But, damn it, I have a power drill and an amazing amount of belief in myself even when I shouldn't. I first went to the hardware store to get some wood. Turns out they have free scraps of it in a bin. I was handed two one foot squares. I also had a leg I was gonna cut but ended up not using it.

Checkered Perler Bead Coasters

I did these Perler bead coasters based off of designs by I believe keirac_x. I think. Anyhoot, I like the way they came out and if I had more white beads I would have made even more of them.

3D Iron Man Perler Bead

Did this 3D Iron Man last night and had to wait till now to post an image because, well, light. I like the way this came out and ended up making a mistake in the base and was about to start all over until I realized that you can't even see it once the figure was placed on top an it was standing. This is another design from Secret Base which look great. You can check out the Twitter here.

Snorlax Perler Bead

This is a Snorlax for no reason at all in Perler bead form other than the fact he is my second favorite Pokemon.

3D Captain America Perler Bead

I did this Captain America 3D Perler bead this morning. I used the design that was created in sprite form over on Secret Base. I had made some designs from there in a previous post where I made Hulk, Hawkeye, and Iron Man as well. I love the way they look. I was gonna make all of them 3D but decided that it would just be crammed under the bed with the rest of my stuff.

3D Dig Dug Perler Beads

I made these little 3D Dig Dug Perler beads. I was looking to make something short in stature because the talls ones I made ended up all wobbly.

Nipsey Hussle Perler Bead

Made this design of the late rapper Nipsey Hussle today. Used a photo and turned it into pixels which then became Perler beads.

Hotline Miami Richard Perler Beads

I made these Perler bead designs based off the game Hotline Miami. Never played it. Just watched folks play it. I got the chicken mask design from ClockTowerCrafts. There are other versions of the mask but they are almost twice as big. I got the character sprite from rips online. If I had more colors I would probably make all of them but that would just be me being weird.

Mario Bros Perler Beads On Canvas

I decided to make miniature versions of the large Mario Bros Perler bead design I have in the kitchen. Gonna have to get some of that excess glue off but otherwise I like the way these came out.

Mega Man Perler Bead

I did this Mega Man out of Perlers based off of a grid created by Hama-Girl. I love how this came out and it gave me a chance to use about five different shades of blue. I am waiting for some other designs to dry on a canvas so I needed something to do.

Jim The Anvil Neidhart Wrestlefest Perler Bead

I did another Perler bead based off of a design by Deanjo2000 of Jim The Anvil Neidhart. This one was way harder than the Bret Hart one because I sneezed and blew it half apart. I wanted to laugh but couldn't because these shades of pink look so similar I had to almost start from scratch. I love the way these came out and now I have to put them on a canvas or something. The Hart Foundation returns!!!
