Wedding Sculpt - calling it Done!

[Jamie Stokes]

Project completed.

All the little fiddly details are done (although an extra month on sculpting the heads, and painting would have been nice) I got the project to complete status.

Ok, Figures attached, the faces given eyes, lips, and hair.

Mish holds in her hand a bouquet of Cherry Blossom flowers, while Ben gives the bike some throttle.

the licence plate has Ben & Mish's initials, with the date they were married (10th April, 2010)

The road sign is made from styrene, painted to look like wood, and has the logos for double happiness (in Chinese) on it. Ben and Mish, zooming along into the future, towards "double Happiness".

You may be wondering why the thing is set up on the diagonal, and why there is such a big gap to one side?


simple.

I'll be adding a sidecar, with Mish son Tahn, and Bens dog Vin, inside at a future point.

Still, the feeling of saying "I have done all I can in the time I have had" and looking upon it, it feels good.

Jamie a great result and a fun thread to follow, you have my admiration, all those new skills to learn and master to get to the finshing line .Also on top of all that, working to a deadline which is never easy.
Question is would you do it all again. ( or just give them a gift certificate )

Cheers Ken
BTW Congratulations to the happy couple.

Thanks Gentlemen,

Ken, yes, I would do it all over again....just maybe a bit smarter (or perhaps a bit less stupidly... )

cheers
