#28: Lomo


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

Sitting there...thinking...

#24: Boo!


Boo!

Evil Saurus tries to scare Emo Dino.
Didn't seem to work.
Happy Halloween...

#23: Desire


Desire

"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


Blu Ray

A stingray made out from BluTack = Blu Ray.
Hur hur hur...

#17: Pizza


Pizza

Another food-related post.
I particularly enjoyed the cheese 'strings'...

#16: Frozen


Frozen

Yummy & delicious...
But good things don't last.

#15: Melt


Melt

Toppled, dropped & melted...

#14: Carry Me


Carry Me

The sign of a father's love.

#13: Leaf

Made this while I was out queuing for tickets to a Neil Gaiman talk.

#12: Cliffhanger


Cliffhanger

Our good ole punk rocker has gotten himself in a sticky situation, huh?

#11: Penguin


Penguin

Meet the 'guin.

Emo Dino Again

Same problem.
Different location.

For Janice.
Hope you like it.

#8: Peace

A reminder on my work desk.
Always keep your cool.
No point being uptight.

#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...

#6: Quincy


Quincy

This piece is titled "Quincy" simply because it's inspired & shaped after the album cover for Quincy Jones' The Dude.

I think mine looks more like The Uncle.

#5: iPod + Headphones


iPod + Headphones

Okay, so my iPod here looked kinda fat & round.
The headphones were quite tough to make, given how small they were.
But overall, I was quite pleased with this piece.

#4: Emo Dino


Emo Dino

"I'm fat. Woe is meeee...."

#3: Punk Rocker


Punk Rocker

It's a shame I couldn't capture the details for this one.
Blame on the low-res phone cam I'm using.
But I guess you can see his general angst...

#2: iPod Rock


iPod Rock

Sometimes I wonder if there's an alien DJ hiding inside my iPod operating the shuffle function.

This is also one of my first few attempts at Blu-Tack moulding.

#1: Rosie


Rosie

Why I called this Rosie is beyond me now.
Perhaps it's cuz the head is shaped like a rose.
Someone said it looked pretty avant garde, or artsy.
Perhaps...

Why Blu Pola...

A few people have asked me to set up a blog showcasing the things I do with Blu-Tack. After some consideration, I guess there's no harm in sharing with people some of the pieces I've done over the course of this year.

Thanks for stopping by.
