I am currently preparing for the medieval market in Hard and since I completely redesigned my booth, I had to build new furniture. This time it was the medieval shelf's turn. I already have a shelf, but it is very complicated to assemble alone, it is very heavy and for all that it isn't even [...]

With Animals for Animals is a free project where Schokopixel photographed animals together with human models. The pictures are sold and the proceeds go to animal protection.
