Reactions to this cake at my cookout were split between "Why the heck did he put a wolf of the cake?" and "Of course he put a wolf on the cake." Bemusement and eye rolling all around!
I can't believe the Lion King is twenty years old, but I'm glad people still like it.
And one slightly more tolerable Frozen cake. Tolerable because it's also a Star Wars cake and doesn't make any sense. The three characters around the sides were done by our Star Wars-loving decorator. I did the rest.
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.
Man I thought Glomdoring's enemy fines were draconian. 75 handpainted sets of antlers to get unenemied to Serenwilde...
Not that these are very impressive, I just found it hilarious that this is what I had to do at work the very day I shot off a letter to Lleuke about my status. )
I knew there was a reason that Portius like you so much besides the frequent flattery.
P.S. Some of these projects look like they'd take a few days, if they take long enough that previews are a thing. How do you keep the cake from going bad before they're done?
Any sufficiently advanced pun is indistinguishable from comedy.
We work on the decorations throughout the week, and bake the cakes themselves fresh on the day of pick-up (or sometimes the day before if it's an early pick-up). Since decorations are made out of fondant and rice krispy treats and stuff, which we don't expect anyone to enjoy eating anyway, we don't really worry about how they taste by the time the customer gets them. But even then it's a rare thing that decorations are made more than a couple days before the order's due unless they're really complex (like Groot, if someone had actually ordered him) or tedious (like those dumb antlers).
But my Guardians cake specifically is just styrofoam. We've had a two-tiered dummy cake sitting around for ages that nobody decorated for display, so I'm hoping to find time to finish by next Thursday. :>
This was a cake for a customer with very high and (I think) unreasonable expectations who balked at the fairly low and (I think) reasonable price I charged. Considering the amount of engineering that went into making sure these heavy rice cereal/fondant spheres were secure and didn't crush the cake itself, she got a steal. Worst of all, she sent someone else to pick up the cake and transport it to her party venue, so I don't even know if she liked it (or if it survived the trip -- though I suspect I would have heard about any transit disasters by now).

(those supports were painted later so they blended in with the cake)
Wow, I'd pay a small fortune for that last cake. Shame your customer was so ungrateful, it is so damn epic I lack in words to properly express my feelings here.

Since we get paid the same wage regardless of the custom decoration work we do, we kind of live for customer reactions. It's terrible when someone has a 'meh' response to something we think is awesome, but then there are people that flip out over colored sprinkles or fondant cutouts. There's one family that orders all their birthday cakes from us and we looooved them because they're all huge nerds and make a huge deal about surprising each other with the themes and characters on their cakes. They even preserve some of the decorations shadow boxes. :x
Not my cleanest work, but it was a bit of a rush job. The kid wanted Lego minifigures but didn't specify which professions or properties he liked, so... Happy birthday, kid. Hope you saw the movie.

The air sparkles with silver motes of light as a silken voice says, "You will see growth and strength where others will see weakness. You will walk with Us as a paragon of Serenwilde's power, for you have already walked this path before."

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
