project 3~`wire sculpture of an eagle

EAGLE? hmm...that was our mythical creature project..so what were suppose to do with eagle?

the task is to sculpt it using wires.. no blow torch,no glue allowed,just ur plain old pliers & many types of wires..

OH! before i talk bout the eagle project,i would like to show u all a diploma interior design's student house project....its so NICE, SO REAL~~~like dollhouse, =) it would be nice if tht modal were made into a real house.. WAh~~~* imagining ** with me staying inside * haha!

real huh?? and the stuff inside are really tiny, especially the buddha head,* wonders how they make it so detailed *

duration was suppose to be 2 weeks as usual,but maybe some of us did not hear what the lecturer said  n SO it turned out to be only 10 days given( 1 week plus 3 days) which is a rather rush,though this is our first group project.

my members consist of 5 ppl including me,( no pics of them ) .we sketched the eagle into a wire form and took measurements of how big we wanted the parts of the eagle to be.

<> heheh

from then we moved on to sculpting it, which is the hardest part!!! our wire knots must be clean n tidy,for us to get that,we hv to use the pliers n hand to twist n bend them to shape.

in the process, everyone had a pretty injured hands ,with tiny scratches n wounds from the wire n blisters due to pressing n twisting wires....though our hands may look like normal,but when it touches water,it BURNS~~~~~tht shows how tiny the wounds are tht we dint even realize its there till it touches water..( so called invisible wounds XD)

hmm,if anyone remembers ah Long Pte Ltd that movie, u'll remember tht the Ah long leader injured 1 finger then alot of ppl came to visit, but then he injured 10 n little ppl came to visit...

LOL~~~well my middle finger bled coz the wire is really sharp, i wrap it with plaster n continue doing my work, then not later my thumb bled~~~haha then from there the guys took over,if not i would prolly end up like the Ah long guy,plastering 10 fingers..ahaha...that would be a sight to see seriously!

paper clips? more like eagle feathers =D

ok so here's the almost 95 % done eagle beside it is a ptelanadon ( some dinasaur)

everyone did well,i love the tail of the eagle ^^ if we had more time, the wings could have looked like the tail too~~ but everyone did a good job =)
