So my mind's been rather made of mush as of late, so I'll keep the descriptions small here..
Long story short, I learned that two artists in particular were going to be at MFF when I went: Clemikou and K'sharra. I really wanted to thank them both for certain things in particular, but I also wanted to do it in a way that would say that it was a personal thank you from me. After all, anyone can just go up and say "Thank you for _____!" and since when have I done things like everyone else does them? XD
So one night when I was watching Zoey's stream (was a YCH I ended up being in~), who should pop in but Clemikou herself! Now, I don't recall exactly how we got on the subject, but I teased Clemikou with the thought of making a kinkajou themed chainmaille dragon. ... So that's exactly what I did~ But I also took it a bit further by not only making it a kinkajou themed dragon, but a Clemikou themed dragon. This was the end result~
So, why exactly did I decide to make this lil gift for her? Tis simple, really.. because it was she that designed/made my very first con badge ever for my very first con ever~
Thank you so much hun. You don't know how much it meant to me~
