Hand Job

Worked with the famous, ok, San Francisco famous, Bill Austin today.  Hand model.  First time I hired a hand model, I hired Bill and that was back in 1988.  Every hand job I get comes from Bill.

He's trimming something here using a jeweler's loupe.
And on set.  We shot in a local place that overlooks the drydocks.

Shape Shifting Legs


Coming down to it.  Won't be much longer.  The legs, the E'ville legs, are on.  And evil they were.  We had traced the intersection of the two arcs back in Ken's space and silly me I went ahead and milled the footrest to that shape.
Turned out that the legs when brought into my place changed radius...see what I mean...evil.  Forced me to do a re-mill.
Shown without the milled footrest.
I understand these pics don't really show much.  Just bear with me.  You're on a need to know basis and all will be revealed soon.

Corners are being broken via this method.

Like I was supposed to be here.

Was scheduled to shoot out on Treasure Island today.  Supposed to be looking at the beautiful SF skyline, softly out of focus behind the product.  They wanted sun and blue and white clouds.  Well, that never happened.

But she was here. Dancing, posing just for me.  Maybe she was running.  Or just spinning in place.  Dunno.
