SUPER FAST birthday build
Posted by smeagol the vile on Wednesday, October 28, 2009 10:04 PM

My absolute favorite teacher, ever (http://www.eastern.edu/academic/cas/depts/music/faculty.html#bryant) is having his birthday on saturday, halloween.  So I decided to make something for him, though last minute.

Basicly, scary jacolantern infront of a Damage and beaten raught iron fence, and a grave stone in back.

when you look at it straight on though, the jackolantern and it's very long stem sitting infront of the fence is actuially in a backhanded way an 8th note on a musical staff sitting on the D above middle C.  (teacher's name is David fyi, see D - David)

 

only the fence is connected, im gona use some celluclay to make a base, or if I dont have time, just use some sculpting putty to make a hard dirt surface.  The thing is I need this done by tomarrow night, because I wont see him on his birthday, so its either early on friday or late on monday, I'd rather the former

I hit delays, mainly ALOT of seam filling and stuff to do beofre painting and that took longer then I thought, and I didnt realise how long celluclay took to dry, so itl prob be done wednsday.  Right now the celluclay is dwn, the fence is painted, well, its all painted, almost finished, just has to be assembled and detailed.

Nice job for a super fast birthday build. Thumbs Up [tup]  I won't have done any better... it may take me weeks to just to do the same.  By the way my birthday is on June 20th... looking forward to it.  Big Smile [:D]
