Video: Hungy In action

EDIT:  ok, well, no one bit on the ebay auction, so I put it up on etsy for $200.  It may seem a lot, but this is a one of a kind piece which was hand sculpted; it’s also a functional sculpture.  Finally, half the proceeds will still be donated to HFB, believe it or not, folks still need help down there, so even if you don’t buy, please donate to them!!  The other half will pay for more clay & epoxie to further my need for world domination.

ETSY – Hungy Nightlight Sculpture

Thanks!

edit: update – still intend on giving half the proceeds to HFB; if you think anyone would like this, please drop me a line – s@sculptedpixel.org – thanks!

White balance goes all to hell as the light comes back up – the colors lose a lot of blue in the process.  Other than that, this turned out pretty smooth.

Finished with the nightlight-anglerfish.  I’m very happy with the way this has turned out, and am thinking of auctioning it (with half going to a tbd charity) on Ebay.  Hungy’s a one of a kind hand sculpted nightlight built from a UL certified LED nightlight – I’ve extended the light, added a photosensor to shut off in daytime, and sculpted the rock, fish & crabs around it.  The eyes and spots along his side are painted with glow paint.  Hungy’s not suitable for young children (though they’re epoxied, the crabs could concievably come off and while he’s very sturdy, he’s not a toy) or pets (not tasty).

As always, I’d love to hear any comments, critique & suggestions.
