Description
A gentle reminder: I really appreciate all the attention my pipecleaner GLaDOS has got. I really do. Thank you everyone!
But I actually do other things than fanart too. If you like fuzzy GLaDOS here, there is much more fuzzy art to be seen in my gallery.

The next time I look like I'm thinking, "It's just a set of geometric shapes, how difficult could it be?", hit me with something hard.
Yes, this is the sculpture I worked on for three weeks.
It is not particularly complex or so, just very different from what I usually build; that is why it took so long. I had to take some artistic liberties (?) because I'm a pipe cleaner artist, not a magician. For example, the proportions are a little off; the eyes are too big and the computer screens way too small. There are other mistakes as well, but I'll just leave those to you to find.
The white screens are made of paper, the cake images are drawn on it. The personality cores (or "eyes") are foam balls, and no, I couldn't find them in the right size.
The rest is 100% pipe cleaners, no sewing thread or glue or anything like that.You probably understood that by now, but I think PORTAL rocks.
And GLaDOS is an awesome character, I just wish I had come up with the idea before Valve did...

You have no idea how happy this makes me. Have you seen the video that the creator of VG Cats did for Portal and GLaDos?

I am such a douche bag for not commenting on this. I love this creation. It looks like Magnetron (a Pokemon).

This is made of win and epic and Jesus. In fact, it's made of so much win that it wouldn't fit in the bucket. So there are forty-six more buckets outside filled with another half of the win used to create this masterpiece.
Hi five on yew!

Just.. wow.

Dude; wait. Can I pay off like... 5 dollars a month? -snerk-
Okay, no. XD
Still; this is AMAZING. XD

I am in awe, this is amazing! I know someone who'll absolutely love this! I've only recently become acquainted with GLaDOS (haven't been able to play any games for a while, sooo busy) but now that I have, I think you did a marvelous job on the details. And it's no matter if things are too big or too small, as GlaDOS says (or sings)
I think it looks perfect, and it took far more dedication than I could muster! Wonderful work!

Aaah, perfect quote
But am still annoyed about the personality cores 
i am thinking about replacing them with cores made of pipecleaners, but i can't get those to be as detailed as the foam ball ones. oh well

Wow, it looks fiddley too!
It's brilliant

This was done really well. I wouldn't have thought of using pipe cleaners and styrofoam to make GLaDOS! And it's really detailed too. you even put the Arpeture Science logo on the back! Which I failed to do in my model : x
LOVIN' IT
