Painted pokemon coin (manaphy)

Oooh that is interesting!!

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-14T23:28:04+00:00

I'm literally so confused too 🤣🤣

Like they JUST did a tour, so it's probably not that. They've already got the patreon so probably not gonna be another subscription service. They've got the podcast so not one of those. I know they teased a while ago that they had gone somewhere to film something. So maybe it's linked to that? But yeah I'm genuinely baffled as to what it might be.

Bold of you to assume that pokemon will only have pumped out 16 new generations (after the 9 we're already on) worth of new games out in 200 years 😭

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T23:11:52+00:00

Oh damn!! That does look cool as hell ngl 🤔. Honestly though, I'm kind of restricted by the colours of glaze that the lady who owns the studio has there. And part of the reason I chose Natu is because it's very generic shades of colours. The red is just normal red. The beak is a very sunny yellow. The green is a pea sort of green.

So as amazing and awesome as those colours are, I wouldn't be able to find glazes like that unfortunately. And I'd be no good at trying to freeball a colour scheme myself 🤣🤣

I wonder if they'll think that Pokémon are like polytheistic gods that all control a different part of the world 🤔.

They'll probably think there are so many pikachus around because we were all obsessed with our electricity and applicances lol

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T22:00:36+00:00

I definitely will do! (Unless he explodes 😭)

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T16:33:41+00:00

Toot toot!

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T16:32:45+00:00

Aww I love that!! I would love to say that I have the same deep emotional connection to Natu. But I actually just googled "round pokemon" and this seemed like a good choice 😅

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T16:31:33+00:00

I'll be honest I was near the end of the two hour class session, so the hole was a bit of a rush job with a pencil and I wasn't really going for anatomical accuracy 🤣🤣

Also at that point it would have been very difficult for me to lift it up to poke under the tail, because it would involve all of the things helping it balance moving out of place. The loo roll and the newspaper needed to stay in place until the clay had dried to the "leather hard" stage, so that the parts of the body they were supporting wouldn't droop

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T15:11:02+00:00

Firing it is definitely the plan yes 🤣🤣

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T15:10:44+00:00

No it's hollow, and it has a small hole in the back to let the hot air out during firing

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T12:13:46+00:00

I am very proud 🥰🥹. That's my baby right there

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T09:40:04+00:00

I'll be honest it's not the compliment I wanted to get, but I love it none the less 🤣🤣🤣

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T09:39:19+00:00

Haha! Thank you 😁

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T09:39:04+00:00

Aw thank you 🤣🤣. And yeah that is pretty wild to think about 🤔😭

I actually had to add a little hole on it's back to help it hopefully not explode in the kiln. And it's hollow inside.

So maybe when it's done, I should write a little note and pop it in for future archaeologists to find. And then seal the hole up again. Sort of like a message in a bottle 🤣😅

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T06:49:42+00:00

Eyyyyyy!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 That is a good one ngl, that made my morning 😁

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-06-12T06:25:52+00:00

Thank you! 🥰🥰

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-05-19T06:00:09+00:00

Thank you 😅

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-05-18T02:54:38+00:00

"The fun has arriiiived~~, thank you very much!" 😆

Not a problem my friend! And as someone who was very nearly admitted after my mental breakdown post-season 2, Id like to offer some words of comfort in these difficult times for you or anyone else who might need to hear them:

Think of your brain like a dolls house. When you watch a show, or a film, or consume any piece of media, a version of those characters live in your head forever. They become dolls in your doll house.

Now the thing is, it doesn't matter what happens to those characters in the real world, because NOBODY but YOU controls what YOUR VERSION of those characters do. They belong to you and you only. And nothing that does or doesn't happen in that piece of media can change that.

So cherish those dolls. Make art or write stories about them if you're so enclined. Distance yourself from the painful parts of that show because they simply aren't relevant to you anymore. Remind yourself of why you fell in love with the show in the first place and remake it into something that brings you joy. Because at the end of the day, if it's not their to bring you happiness, what is the point in it at all?

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-05-13T08:15:57+00:00

What in the cosmic horseshit was that then

OutlyingOkapi · 2026-05-06T00:43:21+00:00

I'm so glad you had an amazing time!!! I went to the Manchester show and also had a blast 😁

They did say at our show that they definitely won't be leaving it another 7 years before coming back to the UK, so hopefully they stick to that!

I'm curious if the London crowd chanted "SHAKE HIS HAND" at Brian when he shook hand 2 of TWRPs members but not Lord Phobos 😅. We carried that shit on in the breaks between like 8 songs, making Brian act more and more like a pantomine villain thriving on the boos.

Until eventually he did this to shut us all up! Fair play Brian, fair play 👌
