...that I never finished?

Well, there's this contest being held by Fox to get your creative tributes to House [possibly] included in the retrospective before the grand finale episode. That was the spark I needed to get my fire going again, so would you believe?

I finished it!

Wanna see?

Are you sure?

Really really?

Welllllllll okaaaaaaayyyy....

The Dark Knight (new Batman movie) is coming out next week. Some people at my theatre decided to make a huge* display for it, including life-size figures of Batman and the Joker, a spotlight, buildings, and some hanging Joker cards, banners, etc. I'm still not sure what the whole thing is supposed to look like, but I got asked to make the Joker's ( Read more... )

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETER GABRIEL!!!

for reasons too complicated to discuss here I have to go to bed before midnight tonight (SHOCK!), so I'm doing this now.

Mini-Peter and the gang have been preparing a very special "secret project" as mentioned in previous posts.  Are you dying to see it?  Can you barely stand it?  Well you'd better go check it out then ( Read more... )

Well mostly ( Read more... )

Mini-Peter and I have started an INSANE project, the specifics of which I cannot disclose until February 13th.  Let's just say that I expect to regret getting myself into this (I think I already do, actually), but if it works, it's going to be extremely cool.  There is no "and if it doesn't work" - it MUST work.  We sent "Real Peter" Gabriel a card ( Read more... )

Ohhh, what have I done?  It should be a good thing.  It is a good thing, surely.

I sent The Birthday Card.

Mini-Peter made a lovely birthday card for Peter Gabriel (I helped a little, but it was mostly the mini-one's work), and I sent it off yesterday.  It should get there in 5-10 business days, which is pretty dang close to Real Peter's birthday ( Read more... )

Well, there's only one mini-person I know who has a whole website dedicated to his adventures, so it must be Mini-Peter!

The Adventures of Mini-Peter

This one's called Predicaments, Part 2.  There's some craziness with the mini-zorb, a bit of disaster narrowly averted with the microwave, and thus far the greatest panic-inducing bit of adventuring he' ( Read more... )

Mini-Peter's head has emerged from the mold completely unharmed!  It's back on his shoulders (and believe me, no-one's happier about that than he is!), and everyone is doing just fine.  Now to pour a cast and see how the mold turned out.  Yippeeeeee ( Read more... )

...but Mini-Peter's head is in the rubber.

Yes yes, ha ha, I know, very funny... now let's move on.

I poured the silicone rubber over Mini-Peter's head to make the mold.  I will leave it for at least 24 hours, maybe 48 if I can stand leaving him in there that long... I had no trouble getting the microphone out, so I don't expect any problems.  I'm ( Read more... )

I sculpted a new little wireless microphone for Mini-Peter, cooked it, and made a mold of it.  It's setting right now.  As this is a trial, I am going to pull it out at 24 hours, which in the instructions inside the box is the recommended time.  I wish they'd make up their minds, though, because on the outside of the box it recommends 48.  The ( Read more... )
