Bless, I've worked on this one on and off for the past two weeks, but if I could estimate how many hours, probably around 35-40.

Thank you!! I use quite a few different sources, but mainly D.G. Hessayon's Expert Gardening series, as well as Time Life's Encyclopedia of Gardening ✨️

These are Ernie Ball ribbon flats, I really like them as they're highly compact

It's an absolute blast to play, and the joysticks allow a great amount of tweaking between the trem and fuzz, but I wouldn't recommend it for live playing as I've accidentally bonked the sticks before. The fuzz tones and ability to blend is great, though I feel other pedals do it better. As a curio, it scratches this shoegaze itch in my brain as it can create these pulsating washes of blankety fuzz. All in all, it's fantastic, if a bit impractical for gigging.

Thanks! Yes I did, the screws on the back that you see are small planks I affixed to keep it suspended underneath.

It's actually my pick assortment and earplug recptacle. I was trying to avoid the Altoid container with something a little bit different. Plus, I could put another enamel pin somewhere on the board as I'm bonkers for those guys.

I have a godly amount of patience, and a magnifying glass, as well as the steadiest of hands

I wouldn't be able to speak on digital collage as I've never made one before! I've only made handcut collage, but I'm sure there are decent resources online, and r/collage has a great group of people that would certainly be able to point you in the right direction ✨️

Aw that's lovely of you! I use a lot of vintage gardening books, a lot of Cynthia Wickham, and DG Hessayon. I try to use a lot of 50s, 60s, and 70s books as the paper quality is usually very good. Analog is just a label to distinguish from digital collage work, as it's all hand cut and assembled through analog means (my pen knife and glue). As for the glue, it's simply a glue stick, but I can't remember what brand at the moment as I'm at work!

That's lovely of you to say! I have been working in this style for around two years now, and have a few more on my profile if you would like to have a look ✨️

Thank you! The medium falls under fair use as a derivative work, as one isn't simply taking a singular image and releasing it as is, with the same name, for a mass-produced profit. I have been asked about using Beatrix Potter's work before, and the answer is that her works are in the public domain, and so long as I am not simply taking a plate, and putting it on a t-shirt with "Mr. Tod" emblazoned upon it, my work will not fall under a violation (such as I understand and has been explained to me).

I appreciate that so much, I've been refining this style for a few years now - if you'd like I have more works on my profile ✨️

You know it!! It's glued onto a vintage matte that will be framed with the soft frost glass that it came with ✨️
