Of Mice and Muses Lea Mai Nguyen

Let yourself be inspired by this glorious journey from video games to mouse taxidermy. The unlikely online partnership of two women to create a whimsical world of mouse characters called Le Heart Design. Video games, leather, lesbians, killer moths and Steampunk conventions. All of this and more in a first-hand, candid tale of accidental career change, from the birth of ideas to marketing efforts, from triumphs to disasters. The book contains many pictures of the work in progress, as well as the finished mice. The good, the bad and the ugly. Mostly the good. A whole chapter is dedicated to an illustrated step-by-step tutorial for the adventurous reader who wants to give it a try.
