How much bread does it take to build a bread house? No, that isn't a riddle. Peter is a member of the National Bread Builders Society (NBBS). It's a club to those who share a passion for bread. Their main event is to create huge structures of varying shapes and sizes entirely out of bread. 
When I first saw the film I noticed Mel Jones' mug sitting next to her laptop. It read "I [Heart] Mulch", which we see is the name of the shop where Mr. Jones brings the 'Garden Life Spring Catalog' binder. I assume it is the name of the buisness that Mr. and Mrs. Jones work for. I thought it would be neat to have a similar mug. It was only in a couple of scenes and really more of a background prop, but it's those kinds of things and that kind of detail that I really enjoy. I looked through my fonts (just the ones I had on my computer) for one that was close enough, and found a clipart heart and made a *.bmp image and got the mug made.
Whoo Hoo! Another little trinket to add to my Coraline collection. Apparently Mr. Bobinsky was awarded the medal for Service at the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster on April 26, 1986. The medal reads "Participant in the clean-up campaign". The "4A3C" is the No. for the "Chernobilskaya Nuclear Power Plant." I think that the real medal is much smaller in person than the scale chosen in the movie, but I am sure that decision was made so it could be clearly seen on screen. Once I found the identity of the medal I picked one up. I'm stoked!
Original Drawing of Peter and his Mom driving out to the Breadsmasher Natural Habitat. The first edition of the book, this image wasn't complete. For the second edition, this is the final drawing. I like to keep the drawings in Black and White for now. Should be fun creating the set for this shot.
The Coraline Press kit came with a CD containing some production photos, a Low Res Trailer and Production Notes. The CD was attached to a cardboard lithograph. It is now been added to my Coraline collection. Mary-Frances and I attended the Emerald City Comic-Con and got to meet Chris Turnham, one of the production illustrators for Coraline to sign it.
So I decided that an easy costume for me would be Wybie from the movie Coraline. I did a quick search for skeleton riding gloves and found these. They are perfect. So this is my first full scale prop/replica from the movie. I am in the process of getting more. I just loved this movie. I have already seen it three times (twice in 3D and once in 2D), and I cannot wait to see it again. I also got a welders helmet that I am going to mod for this costume and I am going to have to make the firefighters turnout coat so it appears to be too large for me. I'll post pics as it goes.
My main character from sitting in his chair at school, waiting for the time to pass. Once school is out he will rush home to continue the search for the Breadsmasher!
