Anime Girl Playing the Trombone
The trombone is a common instrument, but not the most popular. It is usually used a bit as a gimmick. As far as horn instruments, the trumpet is the more popular instrument. Still, the trombone has a place in marching bands, and even in the opera. I think now I will mention something about this brass instrument’s past. The instrument uses slides in order to produce different pitches. The instrument was invented in the 15th century. The name trombone means big trumpet in Italian. Back then, it was known by many names till the word trombone became more commonplace in...
Merry Christmas From Artsy Sister to You
This blog features some of the dress rehearsal attires for the Christmas Stop Motion bjd doll video. I will eventually post in the actual video on this blog. Yesterday, I got a little carried away with the Youtube nonsense. I ended up making a terrible looking video. One part is HD, but the main action looked terrible. In high sight, we did not think this one through. Then again, I was never into that video game streaming thing. I need a new type of gaming gimmick. Regardless, it is going to stay there to see how everything turns out in...
Slide Whistle Anime Instrument Drawing
As of lately, I have been trying to practice a bit with clay. I am trying to get decent enough to make props for the doll show. Among the props, I want the dolls to play bizarre musical instruments.

Doll Theater Shorts: Among Us, the Prestige, Vs, Piano and More.
I had forgotten that I also posted the videos in the Artsy Sister website. I need to put as many references to the videos as much as possible, and vise versa.

My best one so far has been the magic doll. All in all, I hope that you find my nice stop motion efforts amusing. It takes a lot of time, and effort,...
Sheng Anime Music Instrument Drawing
This is one of a couple of nice anime drawing of mine. It is themed after a lovely musical instrument called Sheng. I like it cause it looks like a pipe. The maiden I drew wears a nice Mori type of dress. The red hair was also nice as well, with the cute green eyes. As for the instrument, it is a reed free instrument. It is one of the oldest Chinese musical instruments. It was made around 1100 BC. I like saying BC, cause I am not a big fan of changing something I am familiar with. I also...
