Some photos of my old MOC. I already posted one photo of this vehicle 10 years ago. These I found on my brickshelf (I totally forgot about this site).

 

The old photo: Surface Explorer on flickr

Process:

 

(1) I printed the original 2 photos on high quality paper with a 1000 DPI greyscale laser printer.

(2) I cut the oval of her face out from the first photo with an exacto knife (and one closed eye from the seocnd photo) and waxed-rolled the eye onto the face and then the face onto another piece of heavy, textured paper (pastel paper).

(3) Using pastels and my fingers to make the gradient, I smoothed the features of her face and re-colored the eyes and lips.

(4) I lit it (three directed low watt white light spots) and took a photograph with a SLR.

(5) Then I popped it in Photoshop and did a few minor smudge and gradient adjustments.

 

Important Note: the model in the original photograph had her face smeared with thick, blue-tinted grease-paint. It was already very pastel-ly looking from the camera. Use the "Wendy" tag to see.

 

Sold the last of 5 limited edition prints. November 2009. $1500.

Se potessi vivere di nuovo la mia vita.

Nella prossima cercherei di commettere piĂą errori.

Non cercherei di essere così perfetto, mi rilasserei di più.

Sarei piĂą sciocco di quanto non lo sia giĂ  stato,

di fatto prenderei ben poche cose sul serio.

Sarei meno igenico.

 

Correrei piĂą rischi,

farei piĂą viaggi,

contemplerei piĂą tramonti,

salirei piĂą montagne,

nuoterei in piĂą fiumi.

 

Andrei in piĂą luoghi dove mai sono stato,

mangerei piĂą gelati e meno fave,

avrei piĂą problemi reali, e meno problemi immaginari.

 

Io fui uno di quelli che vissero ogni minuto

della loro vita sensati e con profitto;

certo che mi sono preso qualche momento di allegria.

 

Ma se potessi tornare indietro, cercherei

di avere soltanto momenti buoni.

Chè, se non lo sapete, di questo è fatta la vita,

di momenti: non perdere l'adesso.

 

Io ero uno di quelli che mai

andavano da nessuna parte senza un termometro,

una borsa dell'acqua calda,

un ombrello e un paracadute;

se potessi tornare a vivere, vivrei piĂą leggero.

 

Se potessi tornare a vivere

comincerei ad andare scalzo all'inizio

della primavera

e resterei scalzo fino alla fine dell'autunno.

 

Farei piĂą giri in calesse,

guarderei piĂą albe,

e giocherei con piĂą bambini,

se mi trovassi di nuovo la vita davanti.

Ma vedete, ho 85 anni e so che sto morendo.

This is my first Classic Space MOC. I wanted to build something for Classic Space, but not the overused color scheme of blue, gray and trans yellow. This color scheme is used in a few vehicles and one cruiser in the beginning of the 80s.
