Description
a second view of one of my scrap metal pieces - though from the angle on this one it looks like its just pounced- maybe i should get some wire cable and wind it into a big ball of yarn for this one to chase lol !All images and literature/written work in =rockgem's gallery are © Gemma Hart.

yeah XD i saw, would you mind explaining to me what fractal manipulation is? it sounds very intriguing!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
first i shall quote good old wiki...
A fractal has been defined as "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole
generally a fractal is a digital piece created using mathematics using aporgram like apophysis mandelbrot 3D unlrafractal etc. that echoes a lot of patterns found in nature ( such as leaves and trees etc)
now a fractal manipulation is when you take an image made in a fractal generating program and then do more to it using a second program such as photoshop GIMP etc or when you add non-fractal elements to it sich as photographs etc.
fractals made strictly in fractal generating programs are 'raw' fractals
hope that helps a little ?

lol lots of pieces of scrap metal including inch thick metla bar a crane hook scrap sheet metal 2 large cogs some curain hooks some headlamp bulbs some copper wire and some metal tubing - lol either way a pile of scrap and some welding equipment lol he sits on top of my wardrobe at the moment but he is very large and very heavy lol so needless to say i do't move him about much unless to dust him off

O_O"
...
maybe when I'm older I could do something like that.
Maybe once I reach highschool (junior high student now,7th grade)
I'll take a welding class and try to do something like that.
Honestly though,that's a very creative piece of work.

gotcha! well i made those when i was studying art it was foundation fdiploma so i woudl have been about 18 or 19 when i made them - its oneof the thigns i really miss frombeign in education the acess to the equipment to make things like this
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And I bet it's harder to access the equipment now,right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well i could get it sure - but our house is kinda small so essentially no room to set up a welding bay so to speak - though maybe once i have tidied out some i might go locate pehraps a soldering iron and the like and look at creating things like this but on a much smaller scale
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I couldn't make anything on a much smaller scale,I don't even now how to weld,or get my hands on any metal,or convince my parents to let me handle dangerous blow torches and welding material >.<
