Have I learnt anything from my previous foray into blogging? Time will tell.
I have been dabbling in the world of biomechanics recently, as I research my next major project - a rather large alien sculpt.
Now, to be fair, it was the work of H. R. Giger that inspired me into this path - the alien really started something in me.
Subsequently, biomechanics has been the fuel in my imagination for quite some time now, but I have started to be a little unfaithful with her dirty little cousin... steampunk.
Two of the most influential artists to me in these fields that I would suggest to anyone out there to have a look at are - the aforementioned Hans Giger - no introduction necessary.

and Pierre Matter - a master artist in a fusion of biomechanics and steampunk (there is also a bit of an Art Deco feel there too) - it does not get better than this in my world!

looking forward to your alien ideas and the sculpt in the new year dude, should be rather intersting and great to get back to work
ReplyDeleteTo say I can't wait is the understatement of the year so far - so many ideas just want to get it on!
ReplyDeleteAPC to finish, Alien sculpt to start, custom lego men to bang out, and even some custom motorbike bodywork to do...
Bring it!
Almost forgot the concept BSG Viper that I'm working on.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, am I actually going to have enough hours in the week???
