Fleur Sculpture!!!!!

Tomorrow(23 feb 2011) is my friends birthday and was thinking of making something for her(Jenny Lim to be exact)... thought of making carvings but no idea our of what... the last post was about me learning fruit carvings and stuffs in CAD(Culinary Arts & Design) class... if fruits or vegies weren't ment to be kept in a long period... out of wood might consume me a few days to finish it i think...

Then i remmembered wat i learned when i was 10 years old, i learned to carve on soaps in arts class... :)... but simple designs of course... made a heart shape and so on which is very very simple... :).. then thought of using soap with the design of carving that i learned from fruit carvings in CAD Class...

:)... got my self a block of soap and cut the sides so it fits in a box that i am gonna place it into...

Cut The sides and made a circle line..


Made a deep groove and made lines for the leafs...


Made the leaves... took me around one and half hour... just the leafs... :P


Started to make the flower in the middle... took me an hour to get the shape... :P




Refining tho whole thing... slightly more than half an hour... :P



All done... :)...

The whole process took me 3 hours to make... :)... just stop to get drinks only and then straight on continue doing... wahahhaha... :P... well... it worth the time and the outcome was awesome!!!... hehehehe... :P... Hope that Jenny Lim a.k.a Bak Bao, would love this.. hahahaha... :P
