Wires!
And a drawing too.
Well, to start off, I love wire sculpture, started last year actually, near the end of eighth grade, we did a wire sculpture project, and I loved it.
I made a dragon, and this one is sturdier than my later ones being that it has a thick wire skeleton, like, a different wire than the colorful kind I used for the outside, strong wire.
I made a basic wireframe off of the skeleton then simply wound more wire around it. It originally could stand on its own, but it got a bit messed up so it's got a support now. It still CAN, but not easily.
So, on to the pics:
After that, I made a bunch of wee mini dragons, no frame, just solid wire.
This little guy was the first one of the minis I made, using leftover wire from the larger dragon, and like its daddy, this guy has absolutely no color scheme
The first color-schemed one I ever made. Made during lunch in the cafeteria, again with leftover wire, but I was selective about the colors.
I liked that little guy so much I naturally had to make 4 clones of him.
Most recently, I made a Chinese dragon, I love it but I have close to no red wire left.
At one point I also made a bunch of critters out of only one wire. From left to right, starting in the top row:
A hand, a duck/goose (dunno which it resembles more), a dog, a fox, and a snake.
In the next row, an identical snake to the first one, a bunny, a simple winged dragon, and a frog.
I love making wire hands, I don't know why.
In this shot, left to right, starting in the top row: some creepy crawling guy I've dubbed "Gollum," a bat and a dolphin since I forgot them in the previous shot. On the next row, a hand, and a cooler hand with a bit of arm.
A campfire I made for no apparent reason.
A hand also made for no apparent reason.
A KauKau. If there's an "other" or "sculpture" category in the next AC, I'm entering wire!
Several more critters, a bigger bunny, a bird, and a fish that I really don't like.
Finally, a personal favorite, a screaming head. It's hard to tell from the front view that that's what it is.
So here's a side view, you can see the expression much better.
And finally, something random thrown in 'cuz it's also art, a big ol' greusome drawing of a dragon eating some poor soul's arm.
...
It wasn't my idea, I was wondering what to draw in drawing class one day and Poli suggests "Why don't you draw a dragon eating somebody."
So I did. Still WIP, BTW.
The guy under the claw was just a doodle, he's going to be erased in the final.
And that's all. =D
I might post a topic for this in CoT but I don't see why since I already got this entry...
