I have to say I struggled a bit with his face, as I do always while working with early games characters. I get carried away trying to make them look more human and natural, just like I did with Cart Onasi.
a lot of variations on the theme of lump, made in the comfort of my own home
took everyone in to be fired this morning! have a good time in daycare!!!
these fellas will hopefully soon become Porple. more updates as the situation develops
update: we live and we learn and we put too much glaze on things and they become fused to their little bases! this subset of guys were well-behaved, though.
now this batch will become Blue. Note that the glaze no longer goes all the way to the bottom edge - hopefully fusing will be less of a problem!
Mine Dudes! none of the blue ones stuck! also, some new ones going in:
Identity is a prison! Let yourself respond authentically to each moment as it arrives, without being bound to the narrative of who you think you are! The self is a construct! The truth of your existence is ever changing and infinite as the universe is ever changing and infinite! Abandon the stories of your past selves and be present and alive in this very moment! IDENTITY IS DEAD! THE SELF IS DEAD! YOU ARE ALIVE!
1. A gentleman who takes his seat wearing a large hat. Within the large hat is a projector, arranged such that a film is being projected onto the back of the hat. The film on the hat is a different film to the one on the big screen. Thw two films are not thematically consistent.
2. A snake sitting in one of the front seats is noisily shedding its skin. When it gets a particularly tough bit off it gives a big hiss of pleasure. Also, the snake is not wearing clothes and did not pay to enter the movie theatre.
3. Someone attempted to bring their own popcorn in, smuggled under their coat. In fact, they did not check carefully enough when hiding the popcorn and instead smuggled in a paper carton full of bees. The bees are not interested in the film, which has nothing to say to bee culture. They refuse to sit quietly. They would like somebody to call a manager.
4. Two people in adjacent seats have just realised that they know each other from twenty years ago. They will not stop talking about it. In theory it shouldn’t matter, because the adjacent seats are on the screen and the people are characters in the film. However, the film is not very good. Therefore the audience feel justified in telling them to shush.
5. The cinema inadvertantly sold you a ticket to three hours of a blank screen. It was a rather nice blank screen and the seats were comfortable and warm and you ended up having a pleasant nap. But afterwards the cinema refused to sell you any more nap tickets and seemed to think that this was an unreasonable request.
6. A lady in the third row achieved transcendence some ten minutes into the film and was bathed in a warm golden light. As a result, it was exceedingly difficult to see the screen. She was not raised on high above the cinema ceiling for a full fifty minutes, during which time some plot-critical scenes were ruined.
7. During a particularly long scene, someone at the back conceived, gestated and gave birth to a baby. Although they were admirably quiet about it, the baby was definietly too young to be allowed in and had insufficient attention span to appreciate the poetry of the film’s final moments.
8. There are buttons on the seats whick fold them up into neat cubes for when films about mathematicians are shown. The function of the buttons is not labelled in a way that is readable in the dark. Every showing at least two or three people are cubed by mistake, dooming them to bitter lives as play items in childrens’ activity centres.
9. Someone has brought a bottomless bucket of crisps to the cinema. During a particularly gripping scene, they fall into the bucket. The crunching and screams as they plummet endlessly to their doom quite ruins the rest of the film.
