a little metrogrome of fimo and brass gears. She has steel gears for eyes, and there is a brass armature on the other side of the mouth.

I can't help but think she matches the trilobyte rather astoundingly...

I also made a little jewelbox pendant of about the same dimensions, which swivels to show a clear crystal with a brass gear and a gauge needle, but my digicam is ancient anough to qualify as antique so the pics are fairly awful.  I need a little demon to make a daggeurrotype so you can see it Wink

It's a curious observation that while the trilobite was cute, this figure is slightly disturbing (but still quality work.)  I imagine it has to so with too much empathy for the human form.

It's that old uncanny valley coming back to haunt us.

Back on topic, though, awesome work - and so tiny, too!

If God thought The Doors were better than Cream, Jim Morrison would be able to defend his band today. Either this disproves God, or proves Clapton is the real god.

That ones also a great job, but I did like the trilobite more. Keep up the good work!
