Must Remember To Blog More!

I admit, life got so wonderfully busy over the summer.

July and August were banner months for the shop that I didn't have time for anything. It's slowing now so I will make  steps to blog more.

September has started well for me. Psyclon Nine played at the Phantasy Night Club this past Friday (the 13th). I got a VIP pass.

Let me just say... oh my! They are the nicest bunch of guys ever! Dawn of Ashes too! Spending a bit of time with them was just the highlight of this really great few months for me (and nice break from work too).

Glitch from Psyclon Nine and I in the Lobby. I was trying not to laugh, but he was making faces!  

He and his girlfriend are just the most wonderful people ever... so cute! Both of them!

Despite me being a complete wall flower, they were all so sweet to me. And yes I'm contractually obligated to say they are the nicest people in the world, they actually are!

Jon Siren, me (looking ragged, end of the night), Glitch, and Merritt. Nero was so beat from getting no sleep he crashed and Rotny went missing, no one knew where he was!

The shows (I caught Filament 38's soundcheck not the show, but they're included) were incredible! Everyone's performance was mad, crazy, show stoppers.

 Jon Siren opening Psyclon Nine's set with the beginning of We The Fallen, great start to the show.

 I never seemed to get all of them in one shot

 

But now it's back to real life and back to work making things for people to wear! The shop's focused has shifted a bit more cyberpunk over the summer months, my mohawks have been huge sellers. 

I had some items in photo shoots, a music video (for a non industrial band), and even on the cover of an album (a hard rock band). And the shop celebrated it's first year on September 3rd... so here's to another great year for Cyber Freak!

Ambitious Projects

Oh poor bloggy! I've been so mean and not updated you! I'm so sorry, but things have been so crazy, it seems like everyone wants dread falls lately.

Though part of what's been keeping me so busy is a little thing we like to call Future Syntax (or "A Thing" it's mostly referred to) the latest project that a customer charged me with creating.

I'm still working on exactly what it's called, but it is a futuristic/industrial/post apocalyptic/cyberpunk head piece for a costume. Well, it's going to become steampunk in a few hours as it needs painted.
It was pretty time consuming in its own right, but it's almost done!

Bio Hazard Accessories

Guess what? Bio hazard symbol... tote bag... bound to happen with me.

Made a tote bag just for us cyber goths and cyberpunks :)
It's up on the shop now.

Cyberpunk And Cyber Goth Love!

New pendant on the store... for the cybers!

Calling All Geeks!

There's new item on the shop just for the geeks and gamers.... a D20 necklace.... or sun catcher... I noticed the necklace looked really cool as a sun catcher (despite lack of sun, abundance of snow).

What's Next In CyberFreak Land?

No offense to my lovable Neo Victorian goths (I have a fairly strong Neo Victorian side myself) but I can't do another swirly, lacy, Victorian style umbrella!
I am not complaining, I had a very good time making them and will make more as they sell, but too much of a good thing, I don't want to overwhelm the shop with similar pieces.

So what's next for the shop? Well, umbrellas are becoming quite the seller for me, so I will be continuing with more. I'm going to do some more cyber goth themed ones, already have the bio hazard one. we'll do the radioactive symbol, maybe some '+' (pluses! Way back in the 90's I had a pair of sunglasses with flip down plus signs on the lenses. I miss those), maybe even something written in binary. As well as some cross over stuff with skulls and bats, skulls and bats together.. skulls and bats apart....

Also, the idea machine has been working and I'm thinking of expanding to a whole other area. Bags... as in tote bags, the reusable grocery store bags, and I'm thinking about experimenting with bags to carry a tablet in as well as cell phone carriers (maybe even cases).

All these will be slowly introduced over the next few months. Suggestions are always welcome, leave a comment if you have one and I will see what I can do!.

Space Invaders!

Illuminated wall art, Space Invaders, from Lux Chroma on Etsy (he also has his own website you can purchase from)

It's just too cool, I want it, it takes me back to my childhood as we actually had an Atari... we got it the Christmas it was released here in the States and spent many hours playing it, and yes, I am that old.

I LOVE IT!

But now, I have Eisenfunk stuck in my head..... so play the song while you read!

Today I'm Wondering...

Why we haven't talked about hats!
Winter hats. Fleece hats.
It occurred to me I've never posted up about the fleece winter hats... the biggest flop in my store! But I love them, and they're very unique, for very unique individuals.
Right now I only have the navy blue that's [ictured available, but I am willing to do other colors and ones made from two colors of fleece (though the double thickness ones are a bit higher of a price point because I have to buy twice as much fleece, but man they are warm.)

Because sometimes you just need something pure industrial.
Though my favorite FLA album is Tactical Neural Implant. So here's The Blade...

Back To Cyber Goth

I've been much to (neo) Victorian goth lately. We need a healthy dose of cyber goth/cyberpunk, so visit the store, by something cyber gothy :p

FIle Under Music: genCAB

No my bloggies, I am not ignoring you today. I'm just feeling particularly moody. Like I want to go and hide. I think it's just a stress thing.

So, since I need to give you some love.... let's hear some music!
My moody self (which is where the Freak from CyberFreak partially comes from) usually listens to genCAB and laments. Then maybe switch to some Psyclon Nine for a bit, then back to the genCAB.

 Favorite picture of him....

Someone needs to give David Dutton a bit of a push though. Really could use a new album from genCAB.

Last I knew Vampire Freaks had II Transmutor up as a free download. Look around... see if it's still there.

Let's Get Some Steampunk Going Today

This lovely little necklace comes from Lynne at LMR Photography 2 .

There's Nothing Cuter

Than gerbils in hats. Seriously... it's adorable, and makes you laugh!

Today's OMG! Cute! comes from Julie Persons at Gerbils in Hats on Etsy. And if that isn't cute enough, she also has chicks in hats in another store. :)

Good Morning, Blogonia.

Tired and cranky this morning. I got to bed late, little Baby Bat kept waking up last night.

But as I drink much amounts of coffee, I have some eye candy (canes) for you.

Today's highlighted item is the (acrylic yard) green and black candy cane dread falls. They did sell earlier in November, however I have been considering making a new set, hinging, of course, on the reception that they receive today.

Candy Cane falls are a pain in the butt to make, but just look so wicked cool, that's why I'm willing to make them again.

Good Morning, Blogland!

This morning's good morning post is also good luck for those that went crazy for the spider web umbrella.

I got so much post sale buzz on the umbrella, that I relisted it on the shop as I still had the red jewel I used for the charm, and found the black chain is still in stock. I might even make a couple of them instead of selling just one more, it's going to become a staple of the shop I think. But just a warning, the red jewel and the black chain of the charm is on clearance, so I don't know if I will be able to get too many more of them. So if anyone wants those specifically, they'll need to order now.

Otherwise, I'll find some other wonderfully goth charm for the umbrellas.

Happy Friday Morning, Bloggies!

Today we're having a more refined look. Since this week has been cyberpunky, we aren't stopping that (it's hard since I have little that's classic goth in the store). I do have a warning though. Etsy runs  the listings for 4 months or until the item sells. If the pinstripe scarf doesn't sell, I'm not renewing it or dropping the price. I like this one, I will keep it if it doesn't sell!

Good Morning Googlites.

Today is going to be cyberpunk with a splash of goth. Have fun, be dystopian.

I'm going to try to post some music later as well to compliment the cyberpunk-ness. Until then, shameless promotion.
The spiderweb scarf.

Geek Day/Cyberpunk Day

Today is Geek/Cyberpunk (because they cross lines sometimes) today (though cyber goth works on this one).

I clicked on Heather's shop today and found absolutely the coolest stuff!

Love it!!!!!!

More Cyber Geekiness

Ctrl+alt+delete... says it all.
Yet another geeky item up on the store (I've been pushing them out lately), a lovely wire wrapped bracelet (good for guys or girls) made from my late, great, keyboard's keys.

Cyberpunks, Cyber Goths, Geeks, and Freaks

Two new items on the shop today.
Just a reminder, the shop is at www.Etsy.com/shop/CyberFreak
Something of a more post apocalyptic flavor... a string cuff to match the olive green string scarf.

And a ferrite torroid pendant
