Piece of Mime

a test short as an exercise in several areas. I was testing breaking apart a trestle like bridge by a four legged creature. The dragon has a ball and socket armature, the mime has aluminum wire armature. The set is mostly styrofoam and uses Christmas lights for the mining lights.

Once again, wonderful, wonderful set design and construction! Did you build the car?

yeah, the car is some scrap brass sheeting soldered together and then sprayed black...the wheels actually have a metal shaft that rotates in a square metal tubing...thanks for watching...

I used the philips as video assist/frame grabber but took the stills with my digital camera.
