Pentium Blazer 1.0

Today all the hard work has payed off..... I finished the blazer project.

Here is a brief description....

This sculpture is part of a shoes series I'm currently working where I revisit some of my favorite classic sneakers silhouettes. With this piece , I again tried to create a complete piece with both box and shoe notice some of the details, shoes lock down inside of box for easy portability. I also tied this piece around a theme,"Pentium", the name of Intel's chips. You will notice this detail repeated through out the shoes, and box.

Finished product

After About 8 hours today I finished one side of the blazer project.
