Lost and found.

Just found a few studies from last year that I'm quite proud of. No real significance to current project but I would like to think they're worth sharing.

3D study progress.

Hello all, I've finally finished the 3d study of the neuron sans le nucleus and membrane (which I'll upload that study shortly). This study is made from copper wires, some kind of cheap spongy crap and mod-roc. The colours I've used to spray it are Peugeot cherry red, cool grey and a fleshy yellow that I've forgotten the name of. Also a few photos of me looking steampunk as hell! Thanks to a college mate of mine, Callum Caine, for taking the photos.

 

The whole study is about 1.3 meters long and is quite heavy and flimsy. The next study I'll be making out of Climaflex (the foam that goes around pipes to stop them freezing and bursting when its cold) as its is a loat lighter and I can shape it easily using a heat gun, meaning I don't have to flesh it out with mod-roc. 

Details of the dendrites sans le nucleus and membrane.

Detail of the synapses. The next 3d study I will be moulding the ends with clay (they shan't be too heavy as they're only small little details).

Overall I am very proud of this study and theres only a few alterations I need to make in order to make a sturdy, lightweight sculpture that could infact be suspended without it being a health and safety hazard.
