1:12 Hydrangeas


made with ADC. It's gonna be bf's mom's birthday soon, and i decided to make her flowers this year.
 1:12 isn't the ideal scale since she rightfully commented that my previous gifts were too small to see T-T but i figure, flowers are a little larger than foods, and since she likes flowers (she visits the annual flower shows we have here in SG) and keeps some at home, this should be a more suitable gift.
 it matches the ones she got for CNY this year, alas, i lost the photo that i took of it during The Great Format of 2011 :E :( as usual, being overly critical of my own work, the petals and leaves could be thinner, the leaves could have more detail/shading etc etc....but i do love the soft effect of it :)

wonder what my aunt's fave colour is (IIRC she doesn't really have one hrm...) as her birthday is coming up, and i hope to make one for her too. each large 'ball' (eh, what's the term, floret?) has approx. 55-60 individual 'flowers' T-T. i tried to be less symmetrical with the colouration of it, but as usual, couldn't let go of my need for a certain order and math, and counted it out of curiosity (necessity) :P

there's lots of WIP itty bitties littering my table, time to turn my attention back to them, though it is a little too late to sell halloween stuff :(

    These flowers are very pretty. I am sure they will be loved :).

    I saw something at the SMU bookstore which I thought could be fun for you and Asuka. Mid November when she is back?

    By the way, I thought your post on copyright was interesting. Talk more when we meet :).

    Beautiful, Cindy! Counting components of the whole is the nature of our OCD XD Back to counting rice kernels o_O

    Hi Cindy, I almost missed this post. Great to see the hydrangeas with the petals so clearly defined as always your work is so refined :-). Love this very much and so your mum will like it.
