This is the title I wanted for this miniature scene, because the protagonist is a letter P with lights. The whole scene was an excuse to recreate a vintage industrial interior, with iron structures, polished concrete floors, brick walls, sixties furniture and retro collectibles objects ... well, hope you like it.
For one of the walls I used a briks templete and puty, them I painted the damp stains with sponge and them with very dilute white paint.
para ello, he utilizado papel de acuarela grueso y le he pegado unas tiras de papel. Sobre ellas a intervalos regulares, he pegado con loctite unos adornos para las uñas.
Para darle la textura del hierro, he pintado toda la superficie con pintura acrílica negra, he aplicado sombras de los ojos metálicas plateadas y grises. Para fijar los polvos se puede dar un barniz en espray.
The other wall is made pretending to simulate an iron surface with rivets. To get that look I used thick watercolor paper and I glued some strips of paper. On them and at regular intervals, I glued some loctite nail decorations.
To give iron texture, I painted the entire surface with black acrylic paint, I applied metallic silver and gray eye shadows. To set the powders you can use spray varnish.
With foam board I made an architectural element in a corner that serves to hide the battery and the switch light.
El suelo está hecho simulando cemento pulido, es masilla plástica bien lijada y pintada a esponja con acrílico. Cuando he tenido las tres superficies terminadas, he ensamblado los tres planos con canutillo
The floor is well sanded plastic putty and them painted with acrylic with sponge, it simulates polished concrete. When I had finished the three surfaces, I have joined with glue and little sticks.
Le he hecho los agujeros donde irán las luces. He cortado una tira de papel grueso de acuarela y la he pegado alrededor.
He pintado con pintura acrílica y para envejecerla he aplicado cera y sombras de ojos. Las luces son microLEDs.
The soul of this scene is an old letter P with lights. To make it, I started from a wooden letter, although the base can be easily made with cardboard.
I have made the holes where the lights go. I cut a strip of thick watercolor paper and I glued around.
I've painted with acrylic paint and to age it and I applied wax and eye shadows.
The lights are Microleds.
It had a kitchen cabinet that I transformed with black paint and sandpaper. I put inside colored paper to brighten up the scene because all colours are very neutral.
I filled the cabinet with lot of books.
Como ya hice en otra ocasión, con una bandeja de poliuretano, y un retal de cuero, he realizado un diván. El cuero estaba muy manchado de modo que lo he teñido con tinte para zapatos marrón. Las patas son de alambre galvanizado.
As I did on another occasion, with a tray of polyurethane and leather scrap, I made a chaise lounge. The leather was very stained so I dyed with dye brown shoes. The legs are made of galvanized wire.
The other decorative elements are searched on the Internet, images of maps, educational charts, metal signs, medical books, signs, optical lettering, etc.
I hope you liked the first entry of the year. And especially that something that you've shown here has been helpful.
Un abrazo.
I would wish you to end this post a "P"erfect year too, full of projects, work, health, love, and above all patience, lots of patience in order to not feel poisoned when you see the lips moving of our politicians, these common criminals dressed up as ladies and gentlemen.
I wish this year that all the different human tides with they own demands and colours join together united in a single and huge colorful tide to defend those things that we know are fair and right.
That would be really "P"erfect.
Hugs
Excellent work! I loved it!

ResponderEliminarJe vous souhaite une bonne année 2014. :)
Dear Mara, I wish you a happy 2014 full of inspiration. Let's again try to protect and save everything that's unique, precious, beautiful and vulnerabe.
ResponderEliminarThanks again for the tips and trics in your tutorial! To me the fun of painting is creating an illusion, something that looks very real but is in fact partly created in one's head when looking at the object. it's like a conversation between the painting/object and the viewer. You make perfect use of this in your work, therefore I love to look at your posts! Hugs,Liduina.
Hola Mara: El otro día te deje un comentario... pero veo que el virus que tenía en el ordenador, se lo comió.... je je.
ResponderEliminarTe decía que me encantaba la escena, como siempre explicas las cosas de una forma que parecen sencillas. Lo de la P de la lamparita, me tiene enamorada.
Tendrías que hacer talleres, eres una muy buena profesora...;).
Preciosa te deseo un FELIZ AÑO NUEVO, lleno de escenas preciosas como siempre haces y que tus deseos se cumplan.
Por cierto.... yo intento no envenenarme... pero no lo consigo... Tanto ladrón suelto...
Besos
