Rabbit

Sorry for the lack of posts lately.
Here's a poopin' rabbit to make up for lost time...

#55: Black Berry


Black Berry

One of these berries is real, the other is made of BluTack.
Can you tell which is which?

Here's when the story gets a bit darker...

Another camera fix, this time based loosely on the Hasselblad 500c.

#51: The Family


The Family

Meet the 'guins...

#50: Turntable #1


Turntable #1

Here's my attempt at making a turntable using white & black BluTack.
The backdrop is the cover of a Cutting Crew LP.

#49: Turntable #2


Turntable #2

A closer, if not, more conventional angle...

#48: Converse


Converse

A few friends recently bought me some coloured BluTack.
So I made this...

#47: Snowman


Snowman

...And my daughter made this...

This elephant was inspired by the print on his tee...

#44: Dearly Beheaded


Dearly Beheaded

This is what happens when I get bored with my old BT pieces...

#43: Stiffy


Stiffy

I guess that's the reaction male dinosaurs get when they meet their female counterparts...

#42: Owl


Owl

Just for the record, I didn't do this. It was done by a colleague of mine, which I must say it's pretty well done. Add it to a dried-up branch & voila! An art piece huh?

But it got me thinking: I wouldn't mind putting up photos of your BluTack creation (if you've any) right over here. It'd be kinda fun...

Go on, y'know you can do it. Set your creative self free...

#41: Tea


Tea

"Would you like some tea to go with your ramen, sir?"

#40: Ramen


Ramen

Oh how I wish I could travel to Japan again.
In the meantime, I guess I'll have to settle for this bowl of ramen then.

#39: Worm


Worm

Say hello to wormie.
Another one of my let's-entertain-the-kids piece.

#38: Motorbike


Motorbike

This one came about because a friend asked me to make a scooter, which I failed miserably. So out of frustration, I made a motorbike instead.

In case you're wondering how big this is, the rear wheel is about the size of a ten cent coin.

Hope you like this, Jo...

#37: Doggie


Doggie

Remember back then as a kid there's this toy dog where you can press the bottom & the dog will just tumble? Well yeah, I tried to do one based on that. Didn't quite turn out the way I wanted, plus the dog couldn't stand up long enough for me to take a proper photo.

This pic is one of the last moments of the dog before it crumbled.

#36: Push


Push

Ain't that a bit too heavy for ya?

#35: Tumble


Tumble

Oops...guess that's too much for him to handle...

#34: Play


Play

Here're the figures again from the Carry Me set, before they were put together.

#33: Dragonslayer


Dragonslayer

Something that reminds me of the early days of Dungeons & Dragons. And that's not a horse, by the way...

#32: Chanel Bag


Chanel Bag

I never thought I'd make a bag, let alone a Chanel 2.55. But yeah I did it & it was pretty ok. Only bit is I can't do the chain strap so I make do with a rope-like one instead. The logo is kinda odd too, which was damn difficult to make considering the size of this piece is smaller than my thumb.

This one is for you, Esther...

#31: Octopus


Octopus

Can't really remember how this one came about.
I think my sis-in-law suggested I make an octopus.
So here it is...

#30: Wardrobe Jesus #1


Wardrobe Jesus #1

I did this piece based on Christ on the cross, using the shelves on the wardrobe as part of the cross. Hence, the name Wardrobe Jesus. Please don't write to me on being disrespectful & stuff, coz I'm not.

#29: Wardrobe Jesus #2


Wardrobe Jesus #2

Another closer look...

#28: Lomo

For Anthony, who asked me to make a camera.
This one is shaped after the Lomo.
Hope you like it...

#27: Dinosaur Jr.


Dinosaur Jr.

Inspired by one of my favourite bands of all time.
Literally...

#26: A Man & His Dog #1


A Man & His Dog #1

Here's another piece I did while waiting in queue that day for tickets to a Gaiman talk. It was a pretty hot day so I whipped out the 'tack just to keep myself entertained. Love the white wall in contrast with the blue...

#25: A Man & His Dog #2


A Man & His Dog #2

Didn't seem to work.
Happy Halloween...

"How I long for you...."

Here are two figures I made recently for a video.
You can watch the video here.

#22: Ghettoblaster


Ghettoblaster

Another tiny creation, with even tinnier cassette tapes to match.
Wasn't particularly pleased with this one.
Maybe I should make another.

#21: The Fountain


The Fountain

It's funny how this piece didn't start off as being a fountain.
I was trying to make a tree.
But the wife said it resembled more like a water spring.
So there...The Fountain.

#20: Shark


Shark

Another aquatic creation for the Blu Sea...
This one's the size of my index finger.

#19: Blu Ray

A stingray made out from BluTack = Blu Ray.

#7: Buffalo Bill


Buffalo Bill

Meet Buffalo Bill: half oxen, half duck.
I did this to The Beatles' song "Bungalow Bill".
But as you can see mine's warped along the process.

Hey Buffalo Bill / What did you kill...
