Munchkin and lost fingers

I'm into board games now. I kinda always liked them but time to time I feel a desperate need to have some at home so we could play anytime we want :)

This one started from "Munchkin Bites" 


A really easy and fantastic game from a series of Munchkin Card games from Steve Jackson. If you need a fun game to a people from 3 to 6 I can recommend it. Watch how to play it here on Geek and Sundry channel. Which is by the way a very informative channel since they play games they pick and you can see if you would like to play it too. If it's fun to watch is must be more fun to play :) That way we now want "Pandemic" in our possession too :) 

Munchkin is kind of  parody of all those RPG games but it's a really good one :) There are much more to choose from like Munchkin Zombies, Munchkin Conan and so on :) Can't wait to get one of my own. Now we borrow it from a friend. And as my birthday is approaching I kindly mention to everyone who ask what I want for my birthday, that I want a board game :D 

Anyway, in the summer it get more a blog of my personal routine then something informative. Pardon me :)

Lat night I had a need to sculpt something and thats what I deed. Making my own cameos was always fun for me. I;m thinking about getting some mold making clay And to make molds of cameos I've sculpted :) It would take less time foe me to make them again. I got little bit inspiration from horror theme and here is what I created.





I like the creepy finger myself. That nail... These are more simple jewelry that I usually do . I wanted it to be simple pendants at first. But you can't run away from who you are and I just had to add some more details to it :D
The skull and coffin are long necklaces below the chest while other two are usual length -  just a over the chest.

The replicas of dark world fashion...

While searching on Ebay for some Halloween items, I came upon something, that looked like Alchemy Gothic  but the price was so low it was obvious it was replicas. Some of them were looking almost the same and it would be hard to tel if it's a replica. I know that every Alchemy Gothic jewelry has a graving that shows that it's an authentic item. But that is something only the wearer knows. So how about you? Would you by these 10 dollars replicas? I should say that some of them looked really attractive in both price and look.

The real thing.

Replica
Well, you can see that the ornament on this replica is not so delicate.

Real thing

Replica
It's hard to see the difference...




Real thing

The replica of this item looks even better...

Again. The detail of replica somehow are not so detailed :D




Real thing

Cute skulls. Even too cute...like bunnies.


Guess which one of these crosses of passion is the real one??

It's the second photo. As I understand, the real item should have 3 little red crystals and a red crystal heart. The replicas usually have just the red heart and the other 3 crystals are black ore any other color. And the original have more particular details. And the price. The replica cost about 5,99 dollars. Hard to resist...
Well usually you can find replicas of more simple pieces that are not so hard to copy and to make make. The more complicated and delicate jewelry is hard to reproduce. 

Only thing I found was this piece.



And it's replica. 
It seems like some one just took a mold and recasted the whole thing. The original one has spring driven wing design that moves and I don't think this ones do that.

So, what do you think about it? Would you buy one or not?
;)
P.S. Photos of Alchemy Gothic are taken from the sites that sells Alchemy Gothic jewelry.

Put a ring on my finger...


I never was a big rings lover. I always loved to wear 1 or 3 of them. But 3 was the biggest number of rings I ever had. My most loved ring for today is my coffin ring I've made myself from an old silver ring. The stone felt of so I just took some polymer clay and made a coffin out of it. The coffin replaced the stone by covering whole socket and what I got was a super nice silver coffin ring. I love it. And wear almost every day (but not to work).

It's simple and nice.


The second ring I usually wear is a gift from parents when I was 16. It's a silver ring with nephrite and zirconium. I do like it a lot. My mom has a good taste in jewelry ;)

But the thing I always dreamed about and still am dreaming is a poison ring. Oh, how I love them. But I haven't found the one that would be THE ONE :D There is so many rings to choose from that I can't decide what I want. Of course it must be silver. I don't wear any other metal. I am a silver person :)
Here some I find very attractive.


Such a cutie. I love this Bat/Coffin ring. Sadly, it's not available for Lithuania... :(  I'd love to have the sapphire one or the ruby.


This old fashion red stone poison ring is also my type. You can wear solid perfume in it too ;P


Alchemy Gothic. It's just sad that they are from pewter. But I can't imagine the price if they were silver.


This one is super amazing.  The Celtic snake ring. But the price is amazing too... in a bad way. But the ring is non less gorgeous.



The unlock my heart ring. This one is not really my type. But it's so sweet. I would want that in silver. The key can be given to  an important person in your life ;)

I want mine to be dark but not to edgy, elegant but not to sweet. So, I'll just keep looking and you, my dear readers, just keep reading ;)
