Description Prize the time you get, and make the most of it. Someone knows when your time is up, and he's waiting patiently, holding the keys to the door at the end of your journey here. You know what to call him...


-------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've been working on this piece for a while in between other projects, and decided to go ahead and finish it up. The figure is Super Sculpey clay over a heavy aluminum wire armature. It's painted with Delta Ceramcoat paints. The gold chain, gears and trinkets are re-appropriated bits from jewelry and craft bins, repainted metallic gold where needed.

This piece includes a working clock scavenged from a do-it-yourself clock kit from Lee Valley Hardware. The clock is mounted to the base by three rare earth magnets paired to metal plates. This eases removal for battery changes, and you can see the base with the clock removed in one photo. The hand holding the clock is actually split behind the clock, with part of it mounted to the clock face and a magnet hidden in back half of the hand.

I had a lot of fun with this one. Should have gotten to finishing it up a long time ago.

My old nemesis! Tom Cruise, we meet again...

Actually, this piece is absolutely rockin'! I love the originality in it, and the execution is sur-par. The steampunk flair it shows is...to DIE for!

Thanks!

The next piece coming up is going to have a little steampunk to it, as well. It'll be a while before it's done, though.
