swordmageWhat's under the cut is the Viking Laptop thus far. The class is Art 104 - essentially an introduction to 3D Design.
i'm taking it so i can get into the 200-level fiber class. i saw the looms. i want to bond.
The first two shots were taken on my phone - hence the horrid quality.
The outside
The inside
Design Drawn (mmm... artists tape)
Cutting it out - I used a Dremel cut into the plastic.
Before the tape was removed - as you may or may not be able to see, I cut a little deep into the left side and broke through the plastic.
Tape removed, and more tape added so I can cut out the area around the main design.
After the entire area was removed. I rather like the contrast - only thing I *don't* like is how un-even the plastic is.
Gold leaf part 1.
Gold leaf part 2 - all I need to do now is touch it up so that the gold is nice and solid and then put on a top coat.
What's going to be the drawers. I need to carve out the insides (completely on one, and better on the other), but they fit perfectly and will probably hold jewelry.
Making beads!![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
domnall took this photo.
Some of the beads lined up. they're not very good, but I fully intend on getting better.
Design on the inside. The keys are also painted, and I'm going to re-do them.
