After being waitlisted, we are delighted to announce that we will be attending Anime Boston 2011! This will be our third Anime Boston as C'Lay La Vie and when we know where we'll be located we'll let you know as well. We are also attending a small con called Queen City Kamikaze in February 2011. For both, look for the black sparkly tablecloth!
For our individual stuff, please check out our galleries on Deviant Art. For those wondering why there are no Etsy links even though we do crafty stuff, its up in the air mostly. If you think we should acquire ourselves an Etsy account, or you have expereince using one and can give us some tips, do speak up!
Commissions are open for the both of us! Please note us on DA for further info!

A new year means new characters, new charms, and so on.
Unfortunately there isn't room or time to make every character out there and we tend to stick to fandoms we know and enjoy personally (I love Hellsing while Dixxy loves One Piece). So if you're coming to the table looking for that obsecure character from that anime that was released a month ago in Japan, or a side character of a side character from that 200 episoded anime we have no time to watch, please commission us ahead of time to ensure you get what you really want.
Keep in mind that unlike 2D media, the design of the character matters in how much it will cost. For example, a Chibi Head version of Ikkaku from "Bleach" will be less than Yugi/Yami from "Yu-Gi-Oh!" due to the design of the hair (which as any anime fan should know, can get really crazy).
Same roughly applies for Wobbles. If the character only wears a plain shirt, pants and has simple one color hair, he's going to be a lot less than say Sesshomaru from "InuYasha" (who wears probably the most clothing and accessories than any other anime character). Though for both, you do have the choice of how much detail you wish to have on them, but for all there is a minimum and maximum for each.
Commission Convention Pick Ups.
To help you save on shipping, and us a trip to the post office, you can commission us anytime before the cut off date (undecided yet) and we'll have your commission ready and waiting for you at the convention (in this case Queen City Kamikaze or Anime Boston). We have different ways of doing it, I ask that you pay in advance while Dixxy asks for the money when you come to pick up your commission. Either way, you'll be saving on shipping, and hassle, and you'll already have something waiting for you when you arrive at the con C:
In the past, as some of you may know, Dixxy has done "at con commissions" - meaning she has taken orders for Chibi Heads to be made, baked, AND picked up during the same weekend. Due to a switch in materials, the amount of baggage this requires, and time, Dixxy is no longer offering on-site commissions for Anime Boston - this will also not be available for QCK due to its one day nature. However, this option WILL BE available at Another Anime Convention provided we acquire a table
We're always looking for input. From fandom suggestions to maybe more of a variety of what we can offer or things we may not have thought up yet, we are open for ideas!
That about wraps it up! Thanks for reading and hope to hear from you!
