Yay.

So I hauled the Big Head home this weekend so I could finish it before my critique on Tuesday. Spent most of my afteroon and evening on it, with a break in the middle to have Sushi for K's birthday and see the No Pants 5 year anniversary show. I figured out, with help from the internet, [livejournal.com profile] s4, and a quick phone call to [livejournal.com profile] djnoise, how to finally wire up my LED's. And it worked! Woohoo! And then I finished painting it, and then I put it together, and except for having the glue dry where the wire's attached and maybe replacing some of the scotch tape I used when I ran out of electical tape, I pronounce it done. Except that it doesn't have a name. I have a few floating around that aren't "Big Head", but I haven't decided. In partial homage, and just 'cause it fits, I'm considering Eyes to Space. *shrug* Here are some








It feels really good to make stuff.
