Medusa Playing Cards

I have watched Wen Yu Li's art on DeviantArt for over eight years and he's always been amazing. I even featured his art and an interview in a e-zine I did called Dimensions.

Since then he's been lead illustrator with Anima, a RPG and Card Game at Cipher Studios. Now Cipher Studios and Wen are producing a playing card deck with art by Wen.

The detail is amazing and the project is ready to go to print with the American Playing Card Company (APCC) makers of Bicycle®, Hoyle® and Bee® playing cards. The risks in this project are as negligible as possible, respected company, completed work, over 60% funded in 7 days.

Free shipping to Canada and the USA for a $10 pledge gets you a pack of cards, usable in all kinds of places.

GGotW: When did you start Kryonetik?
Tf: Officially 2 years ago, after I wore some of my outfits to events and they wound up in magazines and photo shoots. Plus I was in an auto accident and off work for a while, so I had time to develop it

Tf: I sell Cybergoth and industrial/futuristic style clothing and accessories for clubbing,costume, or daily wear

GGotW: Do you make all of it?
Tf: For Now Yes, I design and make all of it.

GGotW: What prompted you to start making clothes?
Tf: I started making outfits because I had trouble finding what I wanted to wear. I decided that it was time to start making my own designs.

Tf: I have worked with Kindred's Muze Photography, Darkpartys, Holly Martin, DRL Photography, Wes Harkness Photography and Andrew Cromwell.

GGotW: What has been your most exciting modeling experience?
Tf: There were two sessions that were equally as exciting for me. The first one was doing a full nude shoot with Holly Martin at Dundas Square in Toronto at 5am. I literally had to jump into the other model's arms for the shot. The second was a full nude group shoot. We were on a subway platform in Toronto.

GGotW: What made you want to start modeling?
LNx: I was asked by an alternative shop to do a catwalk show for them and i got spotted and it went from there i guess. Its a great way to meet people and dress up!

GGotW: You have your own clothing line?
LNx: Yes. I find making my own clothing makes my shoots more unique and i love the Victorian era so decided to make my own!

GGotW: What does Victorian Muse make?
LNx: Mostly Victorian influenced clothing. I also dabble with the 18th century gowns and sometimes add more of a up to date fashion mixed with the Victorian era.

GGotW: Were is your store?
LNx: I currently don't have a store as i have only recently started making clothing for photographers and theatre companies. I plan on opening a website store in the future once i have expanded my current collection

GGotW: So are you still modeling?
LNx: On and off at the moment. i am looking more in to doing my clothing company at the moment though i do still come out to play.

GGotW: What is your connection to Performing Arts?
LNx: I have a degree in performing arts and i am a qualified University Lecture in performing arts. I did acting for a bit but decided teaching was more my forte. I love it as its creative and you also look into the other areas of the acting industry such as costume and make up and lighting and sound so you get to see all aspects of theatre and film. Its very interesting!

GGotW: Can you give us a quick bio of you?
JL: Model, designer & photographer Jessie-Lynne. I am currently featured on Gods Girls, Deviant Nation, Zivity & my personal website. I have been modeling for over 7 years now, and over the years my love for fetish & vintage fashion have grown. I finally decided to combine the two with my new line Lush Latex. Lush Latex bridges the gap between fashion & fetish. When I'm not working on my designs for my latex line or at a photoshoot, I'm out taking photos. My photography & modeling work has been published in various magazines. Over the course of the years I've had the opportunity to work with some amazing people. I'm thankful to have worked with such talented artists. I look forward to continuing to create art for years to come.

GGotW: What got you started modeling?
JL: Ever since I was little I was always striking a pose, literally just flip through any photo book of me as a child. Photography is also a huge passion of mine, I just love creating art with such talented people. I think what really got me into modeling was that I was a bit of a tom boy growing up. I guess I got sick of getting grass stains from playing football with the boys! These days you won't find me leaving the house with out a pair of stilettos even in a foot of snow.

GGotW: We understand you have a cover on Status Ink Magazine, how did that happen?
JL: I actually had been in contact with Steff who is a fellow Gods Girl in regarding Status Ink. After submitting my photos to them they asked me if I would be interested in doing a cover shoot for them, OF COURSE I would! Next thing I know I'm shooting for Status Ink's March issue!!!

GGotW: It sounds like you seem as comfortable in front of the camera as behind, what keeps you in front of it?
JL: I'm incredibly comfortable in front of the camera it comes natural to me ever since I was younger. I love seeing the way photographers portray me, I guess I love being in front of a camera as much as I love being behind one.

GGotW: As a model who have you worked for?
JL: I have worked for numerous people over the years and have been featured on handfuls of websites. I have modeled for Gods Girls, Zivity, Deviant Nation, Mother May I, 426 Brand, Narcisse Designs. I've also been featured in various print over the years as well as music videos & band dvds.

GGotW: Who would you like to work with, models or photographers?
JL: I adore the model Mosh and am looking forward to working with her when I make my move to California. Other then that I've been lucky enough to work with many talented artists over the years, I'd love to get behind Lithium Picnic's lens once more!!! There is a list of photographers I'd also love to collaborate with one of these days at ModelMayhem.. Any takers ;)

GGotW: You have your own fashion line, tell us how it came about.
JL: Yes as a matter of fact I do have my own fashion line, its called Lush Latex. I have always had a love for fetish fashion and have been sewing ever since I was younger. I always had a hard time finding latex that I was in love with, I had ideas in my head of what I wanted but could never find it! I decided a little over a year ago to fiddle with the idea of creating latex designs, next thing you know I'm running Lush Latex. I absolotuly adore latex in every which way, it photographs beautifully and feels amazing on. Lush Latex bridges the gap between fetish and fashion, I try to make designs that women can wear out and about. I've even made every girls favorite little black dress and also have your must needed accessories!

GGotW: What do you make?
JL: I make dresses, lingerie, tops, skirts, thigh highs, hair pieces.. you name it I can pretty much make it!

GGotW: Where do you sell it?
JL: Currently it is available only on the website Lushlatex.com it will soon be available at a handful of boutiques.

GGotW: What led you to work on sites like Gods Girls and DeviantNation?
JL: I have been modeling for years now and was always interested in being a part of a community like DN & GG. I shot ages ago back in 2003 for a website called Suicide Girls. For some time I was a limbo girl until the website lost my set, then due to all the controversy and change of their contract I decided to stick to DN & GG. Honestly, I couldn't be happier I love both of the websites, they have such a great community of people!

GGotW: What is you personal favorite accessory?
JL: I'm in love with this watch I received as a gift not that long ago by designer Betsey Johnson. It pretty much never leaves my wrist unless a photographer requests it, I have a over a handful of watches but this one I swoon for.

GGotW: Have you worked with other models, if so who?
JL: Unfortunately I haven't really had a chance to shoot with many other models, but I'm looking forward to shooting with some in the future. There are a few upcoming shoots that are in the works, I'm really excited for them!!

GGotW: What is Chicago's night scene like?
JL: The Chicago night life scene rocks.. I've always had a lot of fun in Chicago. I used to be pretty involved in the Chicago nightlife for a little I was hosting events & tending bar. I have a soft spot for Electro and we have a pretty decent scene here for that. One of my favorite events in Chicago is at a bar called Sonotheque the events called "Dark Wave Disco" its once a month and features some really good djs out of Chicago. If your looking for something to do on the week days every Monday is Rehab at Evil Olive, its a really fun night with a typical turn out of 500+ weekly.

GGotW: What is prompting the move to California?
JL: I'm moving to California because I'm over the cold weather here, it will also allow me to shoot year round on location. I'm really looking forward to the move, I have a lot of friends from California that I miss & can't wait to see!

GGotW: Are you headed for an acting career? Hollywood?
JL: Nope, if anything it will make it easier for me to shoot with photographers since there are a lot more photographers in my niche there.
