Well hello
This is a creation for Truth Coffee... I am busy with a series of things to go in the pods...
I started with a wig head and gave it a lobotomy.
Then I covered it in sticky backed foil pieces and outlined each one with a ball point pen then added the stitch marks.
I covered the top of the head with an embossed piece of sticky backed foil.
Once it was all covered, I added the black paint which I then rubbed off again to create the depth in the crevices created by the ball point pen and embossing folder.
I 3D printed some cogs and bought some men in kit form from my local rail road shop. Sprayed them all silver and distressed them with black paint too.
I found an old blown light bulb which gave rise to this projects name: Mind Blown! and placed it in the center hole which came with the wig head.
The last thing was to carve hollows for the gears to go into and glue them and the men in place.
