Horse head pics



At last a couple of pics of the horsehead, one pre paint in at the foil stage and the other is when I hung it from the a apple tree while I sprayed it, so it looked like a pinata, or dead horse head hanging..... depending on how your mind works... wonder what the neighbours thought ;-)
 I used matt black then a layer of glitter spray, it resembles a hammered metal sculpture now, and Im looking forward to seeing it when its mounted and hanging on the wall.

Horsehead almost complete

After a week of faffing and painting, repainting cursing and general procastinating the horse head is now painted in its final colour of choice..... black with glitter.... and I think it looks pretty fab, I need to mount it and bring together the work I have done and decide on how its going to come together for assesment and how to present the videos on youtube, I have done a few and will have to decide which ones work best for me and how to edit them.

Looking back over this term I have learnt alot more than I thought I have done all my own filming and editing on a software suite I havent used before and  the music software is new to me too, I dont make music but I like to play with sounds.
I have made a fab horse head and am going to make the finishing touches to the carousel, even though it was just used for filming it would be nice to give it roof of sorts. This side of the project has worked well and I hope its assessed well, I am still trying to be more experimental but it feels uncomfortable and I like to be in a comfort zone, but the playing with ideas is fun its just the putting them together that the hard bit.
