The first few fish for the blanket. My ravelry page here.
I'm using this modification of the Knitter's magazine pattern.
(There's an error in the livejournal pattern -- I made a different correction, but the accepted one seems to be here.)
Here’s a little sneak peek at a special project I’ve had in mind for a while now. He’s almost finished, and should be ready by next weekend. I don’t want to say much more, so more details to come! :)
Mmmm, yum! She has purple shadow with dark blue near the eye on top and on the bottom, toward the inside. Carved lips with a yummy pale pink tone and darker pink center highlight. She'll be getting purple and shades of blue highlights; and probably a trim of some kind.
(Again, sporting Ebony's eyemech!)
They're big. He'll probably be 9 mos to a year old before he can wear them. (Then again, Amity says he has big feet...?)
This was the first show at the theatre since the theatre was dedicated to films only. In January of 2000, the Champaign Park District joined in the efforts to save this prized landmark. After assuming control of the theatre, the Park District embarked on a massive renovation to bring the facility back to its original glory and in compliance with local safety ordinances. After renovations are complete, the Virginia Theatre will continue its tradition of quality entertainment that was sparked by such legendary performers such as Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Red Skelton, Will Rogers, W.C. Fields and the Marx Brothers.
My structures group is giving a case study on Crown Hall tomorrow. This is a test render from the 70's pimped out 3d model I'm using to make the slides.
I probably will later regret having solid sides on the bottom, but for now, I don't think it'll add that much in weight and it'll protect the protrusions at a vital joint...
The thin white areas fro the wing membranes are actually just made from a plastic folder because I didn't have any styrene at the time. ^_^; They were glued to the interior sides of both foam halves. Now to press it all together into a sandwich...
Blanket and booties washed in Dreft and laid out to dry. Seconds after I snapped this photo, I decided to throw the blanket in the dryer on airdry (no heat setting) to see if I could shrink it up a little. (Laid out, it's a full 10 inches bigger than it was before I washed it...?) And the booties are now air drying on paper armatures.
Nearly to 1.0 of my iPhone app. Standard pixely coming-soon shot. Follow me on Twitter (@garrettmurray) to keep up.
Here are both sides cut out of foam that will sandwich the thinner wing membrane flaps...this will give a more realistic variety of depth.
I might be abandoning this particular build (although hopefully not the whole costume itself) but I decided to use some of the old pieces to at least experiment with the super-awesome paste. This are only *two* layers here (not even sanded) that covered up most of the super-uneven initial foam surface (that was dremmeled very roughly) + haphazard layers of blobby paint.
In-progress work on the Selene sketch I was working on. Original is a pencil sketch that was scanned and recreated in Illustrator.
I'm colorizing it in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator CS3.
Letting is finished. Now to tackle the rest of the shoes...
Making them for 'Seven', Ayden Gallery's newest show: emilybee.wordpress.com/2011/01/26/art-show-seven-ayden-ga...
these are not the fingers, by the way - they are the part that goes over the elbow...it'll make more sense in a bit
there are three of them now and are the three little pigs, they have costumes and everything. I never got around to doing the wolf but did hand over a design.
Project by Bryan Boyer, Adriel Mesznik, and Chris Parlato.
Program: Music school annex with concert hall, practice rooms, and small gallery.
What am I doing with this glowy-soft bullshit? Sort of funny when it's a hardnosed concrete building, though.
Final Jury for this project is on thursday:
Harry Cobb
P. Scott Cohen
Kenneth Frampton
Paffard Keatinge-Clay
Eric Keune
Wes Jones
Michael Meredith
Jose Oubrerie
NP with a shaggy bob... she's a custom in progress. I think she's going to be a 60's
girl... aptly named Cilla.
I HATE painting wood paneling. Thank goodness we had it removed instead of painting over it. We didn't want to spend to re-build the cabinets though.
When painting this one, I painted the figure in near the end. With this one, I wanted to start with the figure and create around it.
I drew this from a photo I have in my file of body shapes that appeal to me. I changed the hair entirely and gave her more bootie than the photo I was inspired by. It took very little time at all, which surprised me.
I have a general idea of what I'm going to create around her and what colours I'll be using.
I'm also contemplating a tattoo on her, but the jury is still out on that one. I might pencil it on before I decide. Pencil erases very easily from the paints--something I've only just twigged recently and I'm so happy I have!
