Kaylee plushie for CSTS

June 22nd, 2008

I’ve mentioned a lot about the official giveaways and auctions for the Can’t Stop the Serenity events, but every one I’ve heard of is also holding raffles or other ways of getting cool, one-of-a-kind things. Some have props from The Prop Store of London. Some have QMx goodies, or collectible cards, or autographed pictures. And some, like the Arizona Browncoats, get cool stuff made, like this cute Kaylee plushie commissioned to go into a ‘verse gift basket for (I believe) the Phoenix screening on June 28.

Serenity lucite ornament cancelled

June 22nd, 2008

Hmm.

UPDATED: Dark Horse hsa cancelled their proposed Serenity laser-etched lucite ornament. According to Dark Horse:

“The market didn’t show any significant support for the lucite ornament during the solicitation period, so we were forced to make the unfortunate decision to cancel production.”

TFAW has sent cancellations to early buyers and updated the product page.

Sorry folks, no paperweight yet.

Last pages of Will Conrad’s Serenity Better Days art for sale

June 22nd, 2008

Will Conrad has posted the last original pages from his work on “Serenity: Better Days,” the three-issue comic series from Dark Horse.

These are the original pages, on 11″ x 17″ art board, rendered in full pencils by the artist.

(Some pencillers do rough or less detailed artwork, for the inker to fill in; Conrad does complete and beautiful work.)

These are pages from #3, and like most original comic artwork you may see a detail or two that didn’t make it to the final printed work.  Check ‘em out!

About that Jayne tattoo…

June 22nd, 2008

When I mentioned AbbeyShot’s proposed Jayne hoodie, I also mentioned the replica of Jayne’s tattoo that AbbeyShot commissioned from fan-favorite Browncoat artist ArtCat. Thought you might like to take a peek.

This temporary tattoo is a recreation of the one on Jayne’s arm, and you don’t even have to get drunk or hit nobody to get it, neither (Drinking and brawling not included).

Measures 2.25″ wide, 2.75″ tall, just $3.00 each.

And don’t forget to go weigh in on AbbeyShot’s Jayne hoodie.  Do you want one? Would you want one? How much would you pay? And don’t neglect the vital pom-pom issue. Go!

Our new home

June 22nd, 2008

SerenityStuff has moved to a new server. At least I hope it has - what with server speeds and DNS tables and whatnot, for the next few days it may look and react in a somewhat funky manner. But it should be good soon, and on a reliable and somewhat cheaper host :) Hey, gotta keep this boat in the sky.

After Monday or so, if you should notice any lingering problems like missing pictures or bad links, please let me know and I’ll send my mechanic right in.

Now to catch up on all the stuff I held off posting till now. Hang on…
