Spicetag at Cardiff Comic Con 2015

Here are some pictures of our time at Cardiff Comic Con 2015...
We were setting up when the DeLorean was being driven in, which could do with an MOT because it absolutely stank the place out with petrol! We got to see an amazing Space Marine that was the size of ED-209, we spotted some Jedi fighting to the left of our pitch and dressed up as a Colonial Marine for added security - but it seemed pointless due to the amount of Stormtroopers patrolling the place already.
Thanks to Showmasters and everyone who visited us - We'll be back in November!

Clockwork Beetles Have Arrived

We did a clockwork cyclist T-shirt, then we did a clockwork policeman T-shirt, so naturally we've now done a clockwork beetle T-shirt. Made sense to us.
Check all the colours out here.

The Most Powerful T-shirt In The Universe

It's taken us a while but by the power of Grayskull, we've created a He-Man inspired T-shirt.



Everyone knows He-Man, but have you ever heard of Wun-Dar? Well, let us explain...

He-Man was created in the early 1980s as part of a range of toys a while before the animated series began in 1983. The He-Man character was a development of a toy called Wun-Dar, which was only available by mail order as an offer by Wonder Bread.



Original Wun-Dar toys are as rare as chickens teeth so we thought a Wun-Dar T-shirt would be a great accompaniment to our He-Man one.

Therefore, these are the most powerful T-shirts in the Universe. View them here.

The Spicetag Sign printed by Aura Print.

During last summer we had a stall with Craft Folk at home in Cardiff near The Hayes. It was a fantastic event which went really well for us and started us on the process of hitting more craft fairs. As it was our first hut stall you can see we started off the layout quite simple and as the weeks went on it developed into a much more appealing shop. However you can see that we did lack signage on our stall, all we had was a home made Spicetag sign at the back of stall, so it wasn't that clear to see.



However our friend and stall neighbour Paul Willets of My Own Curry @myowncurry gave us the information for Aura Print, a UK design and printing service. He showed us the quality of the items he’d had printed as he was using them to display and advertise his stall and company. Paul highly recommend Aura Print, stating they were easy to use and their delivery was speedy.

As we had Cardiff Comic Con coming up in November, we decided to try Aura Print for this event, which has to have been my favourite of the year. I used their site for the first time which was very simple to use and very consumer friendly. It was unlike some sites that I've used previously for personal art posters that only give you certain sizes, and anything else would be by request only. However using Aura Prints Quick Calculator allows you to do everything on one page. You can enter the width and height you want, the material (500gsm PVC or 320gsm Mech) and which Finish you'd like (Gems & Eyelets or Pole Pockets). You can either decide to let Aura Print design your banner at an additional cost of £10, which is very reasonable especially if you’re wanting a service that does everything for you. We used our own art work which was free. You’re then given your total charge excluding postage and packing. 



Aura Print were great, they fulfilled a fast delivery time, quality of our banner was of a high standard and had a fantastic customer service who ensured to meet our requests. I would highly recommend using Aura print especially if you haven't tried any other sites before. I shall definitely be using Aura Print again for an event due to their out standing quality, value for money and fast delivery. 

Check out Aura Print here.





Thanks for viewing.

How To Build An ED-209

Having watched many TV programs about people building their own homes, we don't notice any bespoke decorative statues being taken into consideration either inside or outside the home.

Well, if we were going to build a home, we've found the perfect bespoke decorative statue.

Thorsson & Associates Workshop of Petaluma, California have built not one, but two ED-209 replicas from the movie RoboCop. Check out below.



Check out the full story at Thorsson & Associates' blog with loads of videos about how these ED-209s were built.
