Gil, thanks a million.. (Man I'm a big fan of your work)..
Well I never thought that these creations will create even a tiny buzz ! But
that's great if you say so..
As for my stuff being radical, I wouldn't agree with you more.. The thing is, I
love to build things that I feel it fits the way I see them in my head, and it
happened to be industrial looking and creepy, so I don't follow any traditional
trends that one starts and the rest will follow or copy, if you know what I
mean.. (Ex the studless creations are great, but it seems that every body is
just making those.. Very cool indeed, but it isn't me)
Of course this project isn't fully accommodating my full abilities of using the
brick, but it helped me a lot in discovering some new tricks and techniques of
how to shape things with what you've got rather than depending on using
countless amount of specialized elements.. But never the less, it's still
limiting me for sure..
I have additional couple of projects for me to do that are totally free style
building, hopefully at least one of them will see the light some day..
Again, thanks for the warm welcome..
Joseph
