Some news and my Etsy shop
The weather in Moscow is terrible – raining and no sun at all. Even May was perfect with its sunny days.
And now I’m back to work with another project, need to model everything in 3d before, it’s quite complicated project for me, so I have to work in several programs at the same time.
As for the rest – I added my Mom’s dolls on my site and also opened my Etsy shop though there are only few items left.
Cornelis De Man Chess Players Roombox.
Well, it’s all done, I’m waiting for the last third painting – the frame for it is ready. Here is the original painting:
And what we’ve done with it 🙂
Art nouveau chair
It’s just about ten days till KDF, so let the panic begin! I need to pack everything, check all over again, make some textile for art nouveau bed. Lots of things! But before that, about a chair:
My favorite art nouveau set
I finished making cabinets for art nouveau sofa. Quite happy with the result.
Art Nouveau Side Cabinets.
Well, it’s finally time to make side cabinets for my art nouveau sofa. 🙂 Here it is:
I don’t even remember why I didn’t make them, I started making carved panels, they are somewhere, in one of five huge boxes with scrap wood, hehe. I won’t waste my time on looking for them. It’s much easier to make new ones. Besides I had a very rough sketch in Google Sketchup, so I made a new one in Rhino. So far so good, I found quite good mahogany strips, though I still need to make lots of veneer, 2mm.
Art Nouveau bedside tables.
Working very fast lately, these time – two bedside tables. So the whole bedroom set is finished.
The only thing – when I started making photos today, I thought, hm, the bed is actually for one person only, so why two tables? 🙂 Nevermind, I enjoyed making both.
I’m taking the set to Kensington Festival this year, this morning I found that my UK visa was issued! I didn’t get the passport with it yet, so I’m still “worried” 🙂
Art nouveau Bed
Art nouveau bed is finished. I really like the result. It looks quite old, just what I wanted to achieve with staining pearwood.
Chaise Longue upholstery
Finished uphosltering chaise longue.
Chairs
I always wanted to try different art nouveau styles, if I may say so. This time – Vienna Secession, Koloman Moser. At first, I spotted his beautiful wardrobe, but then I saw these chairs and immediately started making drawings.
I really liked this dove marquetry piece – its size in 1/12 is 13 mm on 13 mm. Part of the wings are made with mother of pearl, two types actually.
