the end is nigh!
The private view is tomorrow, i’m putting the finishing touches to the ‘scopes and getting everything together for the assessment. I also have some plateweights for the muto stand which will help. i’m installing myself tomorrow and so far, so good… D’ya wanna see what they look like now? i found a suitable piece of…
embellishing the mutantscope
oh wow, the mutantscope is really taking shape – i went in with the fine brush to cover up all the bits i’d missed and brushed it with gold to pick up all the little fibrous surface details – i’m back to enjoying myself again, huzzah! so, todays progress: the only thing i’m not convinced…
in a previous life…
… i designed monsters for Doctor Who: I’ve decided to have two mutoscopes, one working and one with an ‘out of order’ sign. i’ve also swapped the stands around. so, next steps: touch up and embellish the mutantscope increase the stand height of the original work out signage fix the barrels to the stands when…
getting there…
Well, I’m getting there. The mutantscope is taking shape and i finally got around to dealing with version one – lovely drippy waxy nonsense: the photos really don’t do it justice – now i need to find a sealer of some description, or just be very damn careful. Fixing it to the stand tomorrow!…
introducing the mutantscope
Mwhahahaaaa… the monstrous mutantscope, grown from a frankensteinian laboratory one lightning lit night…. or grown out of last weeks panic and made out of chicken wire and spray foam. The first one sounds more dramatic. art and expanding foam are hardly strangers – David Shrigley used it to fill a variety of receptacles including tents…
muto-ny

The original barrel was primed, sprayed satin black and then gloss red, giving it a deeper, cherry-red finish that made the whole look…
She’s a model and she’s looking… ok, considering.
cracking on, cracking on… have ditched the idea of the plaster-soaked fabric as although it’s do-able it’s not really feasible (or should that be the other way round? probably should.) So, in collusion with 3D John i’m using mod-roc and a painted fabric skirt. theoretically. this was just a dry run with the fabric i was considering. I knew…
‘ello muto…
right, effectively my final piece is due…. (drumroll…) wednesday. Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaa. I’ve been cracking on with SkinFlick, which will be presented in a mutoscope (a.k.a a ‘What the Butler Saw’ machine). This is what they’re supposed to look like: So far, this is mine; the plan is to soak fabric…
