I chose Charizard as my entry for the Pokemon/Hanger Circling Taiwan Challenge. Another fun technique! This is scented with 5X Orange EO, 10X Orange EO, and Patchouli. Sorry about the sideways pic in the middle.

This is my first attempt that I made while in New Mexico. Although it has some air holes and some of the colors morphed a bit, I still like it and it is better than the one I made last night.

I forgot to pack my micas, so I used some blush for the pink and eyeshadow for the other colors, plus beta carotene for the yellow. No fragrance.
 
Here it is! We finally got it out of the mold! Flareon is our Pokémon. Turmeric infused oil for the yellowish-tannish color, a little red oxide made the dark orangey color, activated charcoal for the black. Nature's "Orange Citrus", which smells lovely. Omni (16) did the up-and-down Taiwan swirl, Aura (12) handled the circling part of the swirl.

I only had a chance to make one try this month, I don't think it turned out too badly. I colored the batter portions for Growlithe, but the tan portion should have been charcoal and the charcoal should have been tan. My batter hit that "just a bit too thick" stage so I didn't get much of a circling motion, either...lol.

But I had fun, and that's what it is all about, so YAY!!
