I may have to start affectionately referring to this project as “The Abduction of Gonk.” Though I never condone thievery, I fully support reclamation and restoration, so here’s to the scavengers, to the makers who make do, to the love children of Martha Stewart and McGyver who can breathe new life in to old things…here’s to the “Utinni!”
It does stand up, I just couldn’t get good lighting at the moment, so I had to lay her down. The front panel segment is held on with a magnet in the corner.
So if most of your designs how many layers are there? I find it hard to work out with the full frontal pictures. It looks like there are lots but I;m not sure that is your wonderful painting technique making them look deeper than they are.
Colouring on R2D2 is brilliant. No idea how you get the white so bright and the blue so “glowing”
Thank you! Most are 3-4 layers, this one is four plus just the banner makes it 5 thick. The white is colored pencil, a little of white over top a darker color does lighten and brighten it, which is what happened with the blue.
