The other day I tried to craft a Rod of Remorse (the rod the Enma holds in her hands). I cut the piece of wood and gave it a yellow, golden-ish shade without any problems... but I didn't remembered how much I sucked at painting until I started trying to draw its symbols with Indian ink. In the end, I finished it, but the final result was so shitty that I threw it away.
Another thing I've been doing for a couple of days now is coming up with alternative, Touhou-related lyrical arranges for some Western songs. I might post them here someday if I ever finish them.
That's awesome. I bet you've been asked this a million times already, but, besides real life instruments, what software do you use? FL Studio?
