Chalk Bird :)

well well...

this is my bird...

this is kind of thing to gift, i felt will express that he/she is spl

so.......... i did it !


For those who r wanting to know HOW it was done....

first of all, the main step is to gamble !!!

yes , gamble... with the Chalk Piece!

cos u dont want it to break up when u are doing d details... it hurts when it happens..


so choosing a chalk is one of the most imp steps in coming up wit d actual model!

after this is a much more sophisticated step...

VISUALIZATION.. this is the HARDEST part!

u got to SEE the MODEL when its not yet there.. this will demand a lot of concentration and SKILL.

this is tuffest part..

and after tat its pretty simple...

CArving stuff... 2-3 hours of non stop concentration, while enjoying the dust... being careful enough not get distracted, not to make a single mistake.. not to deviate from the original plan...
to make perfect curvature.... tats abt it...

u've ur piece ready.. filled with LOOOOOOOOOOOOOt of love n care...

and now u mite think all d work is done...

well, its not!

still d most important and d one which requires the MAX care is still left out...

and it is....

no prizes for guessing .....


PACkING!


i normally stuff it with whole lot of Soft cotton...with considerable amount of fear actually...


why, i'll tell u..

after all d good work if u loose ur piece jus because it BROKE makes u go GUGUGAGA! ask my friend setu,i'd lost my temper once whn i screwed up a piece, while talking a snap shot.. after tat i've been ever so care ful


i don even allow anyone to tuch my finished models... not even ... well no one!

i carefully put it into some box, with lot of cotton gift pack.. and keep it ready...

and for this reason , i do it only on d day before somebody's bday!

well ,i've not told u till now i guess...

i do it only for frnds...
idon have any of these models wit me..
i've gifted them all.....
