Description
Won't they be impressed, I am a geniusSee how I transformed this old rat
Into a most delightful hat...
This is my first contest entry on DA. I just couldn't help but make something. I love found object art. I've had this odometer lying around for about five years, and finally it has a purpose. I can picture it clicking interminably everywhere the creature goes.
Ingredients: 1 dumpster dived odometer, 1 rubber drain stopper, 1 pen spring, 2 wooden beads, wire, fabric, metallic paint, and photoshop.
UPDATE: Wow, thanks everyone for all the comments and favs! I'm so honored to have been a semi-finalist. Congrats to the winners!

FFFF, oh, that's just Epic. I love the odometer. It gives it a more mechanical touch, and it's also pretty clever. How's his gas mileage?

I like this quite a bit. And I also like the fact that by your name, I'm going to fully assume that you're a Gogol Bordello fan.

Thanks very much! Sorry to disappoint, but I think I've had this user name in one form or another longer than they've even been a band, they do look interesting though.

That is so incredibly cool. Do you sell any of your creations?
I have a alien from the movie made out of random motorcycle parts.

Thanks! No, I've never sold anything, I did a lot of photoshop work on it though, I don't know if it's really as nice in person unfortunately.
