Supermarine progress

Legs gave been attached and moulded on and work on the floats is well under way.
Really looking the part and as stunning as it should be!

Prototypes complete

Oh what a day! The 3d print of my cube stand were finished and the first cube was put together... a few kinks to iron out, so cube version 2, 3 and 4 are off to be cut after a few modifications, but it is definitely just about there.

Such pleasures we have to show you...

A little side project I have been working on, freshly laser-cut. Can't wait to put it together and make the stand...

It suddenly starts to come together and looks glorious. Soon I will move on to the wings and float srtuts....

Slowly, slowly creaty model

Still setting myself a little time aside each week to keep on at my unfinished pieces, when hectic schedules allow, but oh, how worth it! Beautiful is she not?

Will anything ever get finished?

Well, just as I was getting closer to finishing the Supermarine and starting the next project - a modernised version of the Valley Forge dome, another curve ball comes my way. Now I am working on a music installation for a musical education group, very exciting and creative but not without its challenges!
But I continue to tinker and now that the 3D prints are back, the Supermarine creeps ever closer to completion.

New Year catch up

I know you haven't heard from me for a while, there are good reasons for this, I assure you.
I was very lucky and got a 5 week internship with Foster + Partners in the run up to Christmas, so uni projects got shelved. Alas, despite working n some fantastic architectural models, the prestige of the clients and the utter secrecy they demand means... no pictures. Shame.
But now work begins again, I hope to finish the Supermarine S6b in the near future - most of the work is done and the 3D prints should be back soon, so not a huge amount to do (fingers crossed).
Right now I am planning the next big project which will be Dome 1 from the Valley Forge (Silent Running) - it will be an updated exhibition style model which will stay true to the original but have the added bonus of intricate detailing and a scaled interior.
For now, here are some pictures of the nearly completed Supermarine S6b. Coming along nicely I think.
