More space?

Since my 19" CRT died on me, I've decide to look into LCD as replacement
after looking at alot of sites and information about different LCD panels,
Read http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1039222 for more info..
IPS panel seem to be the only choice for me

I had a choice of 20" or 24" however, I need more work space to play with flash/nuendo etc, I've decide to go for 2x 20"

I pick up 2 NEC 20wmgx2, the color is amazing, contrast ratio is pretty good and the viewing angle is almost perfect

First time playing with flash

well, this is the first time i play with flash

Ospace - Finalcut Project

Final project for Video class, enjoy!

完成 (FINISH)

Heres the final product
I know it is a bit rough, and unrefine....

If I have more time, I will recreate this guy again

heres the outline
Design/Sketches = 1 hour
Cutting wood base/sanding = 1 hour (I didn't have the proper tools)
Building wireframe = 2 hours
TinFoil wrap = 2 hours
Sculpting = 6 hours
Bake/Sanding = 1 hour
Painting = 3 hours + 3 hours (after the first coat of paint, I let it dry overnight, and repeat the step for second coat..)
Touch up = 1 hour
total = 20 hours

Total cost = 15.99
I already have all the tools and wires

Painting

The next step is painting.
Since I wasn't able to get a hold of set of airbrush
I had to use brush

First, I sand down some hard edge etc.
then I get a light coat of silver blue because that will be my base color

Next, I paint the silver and finally the black

you can see the step I took here

Waiting for paint

The baking turn out pretty well, I've gotta add in more detail and sand down a few area...
All I need now is PAINT and maybe a set of airbrush.. (someone want to let me borrow thiers?)
I came across some links which I find very useful
take a look at

SouthernGFX Sculpey Tutorial

and

Great Sculpey Tutorial by Smellybug from ConceptArt forum, you guys have to read





when I look at this new robot, it reminded me of my last one...
This guy was created back in 2002 (summer)


R.I.P(killed by sunlight on April, 2006)

Pre-Bake

Just before I bake it, I took tons of photo just in case it EXPLODE..

I've add some detail, but I will leave the rest after baking, gonna sand it down to smooth it first

Almost done modeling

Well, I am almost finish modeling, now I have to do the small touch up on the arm, leg etc
as for baking, I am not sure if I should do it...

small update

Getting ready

I dig up some of my pottery tools from my high school stash
they are old but they are still useful.. maybe a bit of cleaning will do the trick

as u can see from the picture, I manage to finish wrapping this thing in foils
