Project - Smarty Bean

Although there are a couple more Anpanman characters that I want to continue making paper crafts with.  I'm going to start on a new project - Smarty Bean, an app I recently came across.

The original story is about a seed, Beanie, finding his root to see his mother and discover the meaning of life (though the app is more focused on children's brain training).

Project - Anpanman

My near to complete project - Anpanman, is one of the most well known picture book & cartoon character in Japan since 1973, written by Takashi Yanase. The series has over 1,500 characters that are mostly food related.  Even though it is not as well known as Hello Kitty within North America, Anpanman is extremely popular in Japan.
