Reveal

Armed with a

hot air gun
scissors
pliers
chiesel
5 pairs of hands
and a camera,
we revealed the beast...





the top broke.
but that's because of calculation error.
such a pity.

Concoction of the Beast

















[from left to right]
Aluminium Foil as Mould
Cement:Glass:Water = 2:1:1
Wood as Mould; Cement:Sand:Water = 2:1:1
Plastic Wrap as Mould
Cement:Styrofoam:Water = 2:1:1


Too much water, the volume will decrease after a while, as water evaporates.
Aluminium foil reacted with the concrete mix.
Glass was a bit too small to have achieve the visualised effect of sparkling surface.
Styrofoam can help decrease the net weight.
Plastic Wrap has the best effect so far.

Then again, the tip is still yet to be achieved.

lets us has a break.
till then, then.

Finale

The beast was crouching, creeping, all poised and ready to leap.
Its stare deadly fixed on the vortex approaching him.
Given its current condition, the only way for it to take to the skies is with external help.

Suddenly, it broke into a gallop, muscles flexing, all tense and defined.
Gaining speed, it leapt.
Soaring through the air, wings pressed tightly against its body, it dove head first into the swirling vortex, and was immediately propelled upwards at full force.

It broke through the vortex with one swift motion, and as it extended its wings to full length.
They caught the sun’s rays.
Every feather, every hair on its body casted an ever-changing shadow that reflected its flight pattern.


"Freedom."
