I decided to find inspiration in the styling of some characters I’ve always really enjoyed + I know that I want to make something using acrylic sheets, the way the lights look within the transparent frame feels very enticing.
Ice Headpiece
This is the ice queen from the early 2000s movie sharkboy and lavagirl. I’ve always been drawn to the world they created around her, the headpiece is actively the cherry on top. I would love to experiment with this concept and make some sort of pierced acrylic headpiece.
Shopping List:
Acrylic sheets
Metal hoops/accessories
Headband as base
laser cutting appointment
Steven Universe Spinel
Spinel is a scorned character in Steven Universe, the way they designed her character to reflect the arc of her character has always been so satisfying to me.
a. I want to make the axe that Spinel carries. theres a red Spinel gem in the middle of a transparent/translucent “blade”. I’m curious of playing with this design and making a glowing heart scepter.
b. Spinel also has these heart shaped hair puffs. Im curious about making a headband in the shape of a heart, that could possible be covered with my hair or just worn as a headband.
Shopping List:
some sort of staff/decorated stick
fabric to wrap handle
acrylic sheets
