Do or die time. The final stretch

It has been an intense day. I have been non stop. Woke up and worked on the sculpture. Got the wire frame done and strated to wrap it up in fabric. My goal it to cover it in Gel medium and fabric stiffener until it is super hard. After that I will give it a coat of Gold paint. After class I grabbed some amazing yellow curry from a Thai truck :)



Set up the layout for my book cover. Everything looked good on the computer, however when I printed it out it looked pixilelated. I decided to say fuck it and talk to my teacher about wheat I did wrong. Most likely the resolution got messed up along the way. I wanted to get this done so I wont have to worry about it, however it isn't due for another week, thank god. We are going to learn how to cut down and bind a book. Looking forward to learning how to make a legit book that looks like something you can get off the shelves. Maybe I can make my own one day.


On a side note, I went to Jerrys today to pick up some book binding glue. Also got two large screens, a big container of photo emulsion, screen cleaner, and some screen hinges. I have absolutely no time to print now. However I have everything bought for when finals are over. So happy. 
Got home and mounted my Film poster. My living room is a mess with scraps and tracing paper. However it is finished. Going to do my final critique tomorrow. I'm thinking I have looked at it too much to the point where I am focusing on little stuff. However, my whole class is frazzled and getting caught up in small details. I will like it more in the morning when I look at it with fresh eyes. One class down. Two more to go.
