My Guqin teacher gave us some Paulownia wood to make whatever we want, I was thinking to make 4 baby Guqin, about 58cm long (pic 3, middle one for reference) and do a giveaway for my followers. It wouldn’t be playable, just for decoration.
The entire process would take a few months, would that be something ppl are interested in getting as a giveaway? Or would you prefer some cute stationery, mugs, stickers, jewelry, that sort of thing?

I had a hyper fixation on guqin-making a few years back, but no access to tools and thus could only do research, I am living vicariously through you with your guqin-building posts ( ꈍᴗꈍ)

@kitalphahart They were too chonk, lol. Like, excessively chonk to the point you couldn’t even tell they were Guqin anymore 🤣 My teacher said if I didn’t say I was drafting baby Guqin he would’ve thought I was making Guzheng 😅 The new version is still chonk but not as exaggerated.

@luckyloser555 I’m posting about my experience making full-sized and baby Guqin 😁 It’s my first time (only been at the workshop for about 1.5mo) so I hope to share the full experience with anyone interested. If you check my pinned post, you can see find posts I’ve already made for making full-sized Qin.

Ohh I would be interested in a peek behind a curtains in guqin-making! Decorative one specifically, I was thinking about making my own prop and it would be nice to follow your footsteps :3
