Description
(Carved on 4-5oz leather)Alrighty!!
First off, Jareth the Goblin King doesn't belong to me. Neither does Labyrinth.
This sketch was done by the highly-talented and I can't RESIST Jareth. (Curse you, Labyrinth!!!! ensnared me since childhood.... lol) Here's the original: [link]
Lines are done with simply cutting them, resisted the crystal in his hand, and then used a Sheridan brown antique.
Had a small problem - before he was fully dried, I managed to spill water on him. I decided I liked it, and went ahead and make him a little spotty. Now it looks to me like little bubbles (or crystal balls) are floating around him.
Hey, at least I finally finished it!
Filled with 13 signatures of calligraphy paper. Yes, 13. Why? 13 hours, baby. I cannot resist being silly.

Thank you very much!
Currently, I am unable to take commissions, I'm sorry. My "real" job has me working crazy hours.
Also, I am unable to replicate this design, as I do not have permission from the original artist to do so more than this one. Many apologies!!

This is amazing how much would this put someone back if they wanted one? Honestly the bubbles is a genius idea!

Sorry for the delay in answering, wasn't at home...
I'm glad you like it! I'm rather happy with it, and the bubbles were a lucky accident lol. I'm relieved they worked out
First, I would need to ask the artist of the linework for permission to use her piece. Depending on her fee (since it is her work, that particular journal was not for sale), for materials and work alone, it's be over $80. (Handbinding a book sucks lol)

Hey LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS! Altho the water marking was a mistake it really adds to the whole look - one of those great mistakes. 13 signatures? genius and its ok the other laby geeks so get it lol! the fact that you mayb put gold glitter into the pages would be AMAZING!!!!! Out of curiousity how much would it cost to commision something like this from you? xxx

Hi there
Yes, it was a happy mistake. I thought about brushing the edges of the paper with gold paint, but I was concerned it would flake off, and I wanted to be sure it would look good! I have a new gold paint now, though, that seems to cover better, so I might be talked into doing it lol.
As for commission - with materials alone, it's at 30 before the 2-3 hours of work, so 50-60 depending on time.

I really like both this, and the original sketch by janey-jane. It works really well as a carving on parchment-colored material. His cape, especially, looks awesome, and those glowey crystals were a lucky accident!

Thanks, I love janey-jane's sketch, I was thrilled when she gave me the thumbs up for use. It actually wasn't parchment-colored to start with.. yay for antiquing. I'm glad that the accident worked out, I would have been crushed to mess it up!

This is so awesome. And I love the little 'crystals' around him too. Makes it look that much more unique.
