Final Thoughts

Image
  Overall I'm pretty pleased with how everything has turned out and overall I'm pretty surprised with the outcome. Digital art has never really been my strongest attribute in comparison to my oil paintings which most people tend to prefer as well but seeing how not only myself but how other people have reacted to my digital work this year, especially with this piece has really lessened my insecurities about my work slightly (only slightly heheheh). However I do think I could  have done a lot better with this work as most of the artwork on the baord I did within a span of 2 weeks because I left it all to the last minute, I was so worried that I was gonna fail the year because of this but after many long nights and stays at the sit campus (not overnight ofc) I was able to get everything done pretty early in fact, however that left me cutting some corners especially with my landscape work which I rushed, as well as some of the props. Props and landscape a...

Assembling everything OwO

 Today everything was finished and assembled, the C U B E was put together fully with all the artwork and decorative stuff on full display. The only problem I really had in this stage was cutting the artwork as I overestimated the sizes of some of the prints and had to cut some extra bits of the side for all the prints to fit on correctly the cube. I did have some issues with creasing for some of the artworks especially the main poster I made which kept creasing, however after a long struggle I was able to get it sorted out.  Original measurements which I made a little to big :/ Biggest brain Here are some images of everything all sorted and put together.  A lot of the items I used to decorate the top of the box were things I just had lying around my house pretty much, the only thing that I had to buy to decorate the top of the C U B E was the candles which I used slightly beforehand to give them a little bit more character instead of them, being perfectly straight and un...

Sculpture Done + boards

Image
 I've finally finished my sculpture and am pretty happy with how it turned out, however getting there was pretty difficult I guess. When I had finished my sculpture I had a problem with it not being able to stand and when it came out of the oven it was pretty clear why it was struggling to stand, my dumbass didn't full the skirt so there was just tinfoil keeping it together so naturally when it came out of the oven it struggled to stand and was on a bad lean. While the final version has a bit of a lean I managed to alleviate it slightly by breaking of her bottom legs and gluing them back on, while I used a crap ton of hot glue it fixed the issue pretty well. Over the holidays I wanna try experimenting a little bit more with sculpture and see how I go to try and improve my skills as I really enjoyed making the sculpture, even though my first attempt trying the clay was really bad as I don't know if my hands were just weak that day or I just got a bad batch of clay as it just...
