Goodbye lightbulbs, hello pylons...

After my progress review I realised that my work so  far was too scattered... I decided to focus more closely on electricity pylons.
I took some photos of electricity pylons and edited them on the compter. It was night time when I took the photos, it was also raining. The rain caused the pictures to look quite blured however, this gave the pylons and interesting look, especailly the photos that I took while standing under the pylon and pointing the camera upwards. I changed the brightness and saturation of some of the photos and painted over other using the "paint"  application on my computer.
  • I decided to make a 3D electricity pylon out of crayons.
  • I melted the ends of the crayons over a candle and stuck them together.
Although I enjoyed making this, I felt that it didn't really represent the structure of the pylon as I wanted, I found it very difficult to stick the crayons on at a diagonal angle... so, this 3D object didn't really turn out like an electricity pylon!
