Chainmail dress

I did this dress back in Spring of 2010. It is made of anodized aluminum rings, and took three months of assembly, and one month of design. The bulk of the dress is made with 4 in 1 weave, with the belt, and trim dragon scale and half Persian.

 

The back design has a silver inlay dragon whose tail wraps around to the front and back. The front design is based off of a kimono wrap. Below has the belt I made for it as well, though omitted in the above shots.

 

Hope you enjoy, if you have any questions  feel free to comment.

LEGO Benedict Cumberbatch

 My current largest piece, a mosaic of Benedict Cumberbatch! He is the actor for Sherlock, Khan from Star Trek, Warhorse, and Parade's End. The mosaic is made of only the black plate for the background, and 1x1 clear bricks. The shades come from stacking multiple clear bricks on top of one another to get different shades of grey.

To give you an idea of size, here is me standing next to the piece. It is roughly 3 feet tall.

Hope you enjoy him as much as I have had building him.

Photoshoot weekend

So I fiinally got around to having some time to take photos of all of my work since January. I did not get it all pictured, but now most of it is, so I can tear down and build new lego pieces. I also jumped painting skill levels on my miniatures, and have photos of the new work. I also got some nice anime figures from anime expo that I might post as well.

LEGO Crown Hall

LEGO S.R. Crown Hall

This piece went through five iterations before coming to it's final look. It was showcased in Brickworld Chicago 2012, and the Mies Birthday party.

There are more photos on my MOC pages.

Final pictures from 2012

I finished the Eldar costume, I wore it for Games Day, A-cen and Wizard World Chicago. I won third place for best costume at Games Day.

That is me on the left. The Space Marine on the far right is a statue.

The last year

So although this blog hasn't been updated, I have been very busy. I finished college, and have gotten very busy with most of my projects. I have been to quite a few convention, including Gen-con and Anime Expo. I do photo shoots of my work with a friend for finalized photos, which won't be posted as often here as they are on my MOC pages and in my portfolio. That said, feel free to comment on what you see.

LEGOs

So I have been building lots of legos for my portfolio for a job. I also have lego crown kind of built, still working on finishing it.
