WHOOOAH

yesterday we had a day trip with college to the V&A ... although this may soudn liek an ordinary day trip it wernt!!! We went into the costume STORE!! oh my fucking god actually amazing ... for the average person there is like a 5 month waiting list and we got to go in there.

Saw some like truly amazing dresses actually in love .. pictures definately coming soon

... also now contimplating a possible carrer choice as a curator ... for a bit of time anyway

Theatre making project

Official day one and already im like bellllrgh. Hate it. After what i thought was an epic idea im back to the drawing board. My idea of combining sweeney todd and jack the ripper is alreayd scraped as they were in different centuries and the coat i want to make is basically smack bang in the middle of the two.

- so not happy about this

now getting very confused and yes well i really want to give up. What is bizzare is well i made the effort to come to college today to do work and i swear ive done far more work at home over the past two days then like today now thats ironic!!!!


not happy although i found this image and well yes how awesome it will be if i can incorporate this into my final design of the theatre. Pah will be a bitch to make in model box form though ... im screwed but whats new really??

snail

get me two posts in one day .... i feel i have neglect my log so here is a pic of the flet snail i made hte other day. I was bored and wanted to put off work so i made this snail for my friend syd as i have lots of free time, i like beads so why not
