I’ve been away from Bluesky due to messaging issues. Sorry for the late notice! I’m showing yokai at Centre Gallery, Bristol, until Wed 26th. Yokai models are also now available: bertramfiddle.com⁠

Hi everyone! Thank you so much for all the support and purchases through late pledges even after the Kickstarter campaign ended. Late pledges on Kickstarter closed last week, but you can still purchase the project through the website linked in my profile. Quantities are limited, so don’t miss out!

Who's that in my Christmas tree? Why it's the Bake Zori by @aco_decodoll and he brought me this beautiful book and picture too! #Kickstart #yokai #妖怪

Bake Zori or Monster Sandle is a tsukumogami (animated object) type yokai. Bake Zori start out as normal straw sandles (zori), but gain life after 99 years. This Bake Zori doll was made by artist Aco_Doll and was a reward for backing their Kickstarter project.

This book was a Kickstarter project by Aco_Doll and features the tsukumogami dolls made by Aco_Doll.

A picture of dolls made by Aco_Doll, in homage to Kuninoyoshi's Origin of the Cat Stone at Okabe.

I couldn’t ship everything in November because the last days fell on a weekend 💦 But all labels are on, so now it’s just drop-off or pickup! It’s a big batch, but everything should go out in the next couple of days. Thanks for your patience! 📦✨

Recently my Bluesky messages stopped working. I can still make posts and comments, but I can’t open messages—it asks for age verification, and even after resetting, it doesn’t work. Now it’s even asking me to take a face recognition photo. Is this some kind of spam? It’s scary 😱

Aco Burnett @acodecodoll.bsky.social · 14/09/2025

Hello! My yokai book is almost finalized and I remade the Nuppeppō for book. I tried using a new squishy material for texture, but it didn’t work well with an armature. The flocking powder made it look messy, but luckily I managed to take good photos before coating, so those will go in the book.

The photo shows “Tofu Kozou,” which will be made into an acrylic flat keychain as one of the rewards. Since we’ll place the order with the manufacturer after confirming the final quantity, there isn’t a sample yet, but I believe the finished product will look just as cute as the photo!
