Bobsled and Zombie Fox 25/02/2010
3 Comments
 
The last couple of days I've spent working on my monthly masterpiece/competition entry. Who knew it was so hard to make a bobsled?! There has been a lot of problem solving with a bit of pulling apart and restitching. I really enjoy a creative challenge that involves some construction. I'm not much of a planner when it comes to these things, I just get started and hope for the best.I took some photos along the way to document the process...

The bobsled isn't quite finished yet, it will have a pole-thing out the side for this fox to hold onto, he's the one that pushes the sled. At the moment he looks like a zombie fox which is pretty funny. I'm currently reading a book about zombies so maybe it's coming through in my work. I'll keep you updated on the progress and it should be finished by midnight on Sunday!

I'm giving myself the day off today because it's my birthday. Yay! Toby is taking me shopping and out for lunch. Have a great day!

Hi! I came and bought Gilbert off you today, the girl from Melbourne. Love the look of the zombie fox. I put Gilbert next to my computer :D
Foxes are great subjects, thats the focus of my project, but like I said today, in a different style direction. I think you have a great earthy design going with the colours and I wish you all the best! I'll be following your blog.
