|
| This
is the finished piece. It is lit but in somewhat subdued
light. |
|
|
| My inspiration.
I used this pin for all my color choices. |
|
|
| I got
this "Roscolux" gel sample book along time ago in a
photography class. |
|
|
| My final
color choices. I got each color by holding the gel up
to the lit logo. |
|
|
| Green:
#2004 "Storaro Green" |
|
|
| Yellow:
#14 "Medium Straw" |
|
|
|
|
| Purple:
#2009 "Storaro Violet" |
|
|
| Blue:
#376 "Bermuda Blue: |
|
|
| Choosing
colors involved seeing how they looked with light passing
through them. |
|
|
| I made
a paper template and worked with that when taping and
cutting the gels. |
|
|
| Clear
gels were used to prevent tearing when putting it in
the lid. |
|
|
| What
you see when you get the lid open. |
|
|
| Cutting
the tape to allow me to put stufff under the logo. |
|
|
| This
is the final logo all taped up, trimmed, and inserted.
|
|
|
| Holding
the bottom like this and pulling the top towards me
seemed to work good. |
|
|
| This
picture shows the anntena wire infront of the clip..
bad. |
|
|
| Here
the wire is behind the clip where it should be. |
|
|
| I actually
bent one of the clips. Be gentle, don't force anything!!! |
|
|
| Here
I am using a small pocket knife to gingerly bend the
clip back into shape. |
|
|
| he fixed
clip. After bending this clip I figured out the technique
above. |
|
|
| Watch
at these points. The screen should be flush at both.
My mistake was here. |
|
|
| SIde
by side comparison of the pin and the finished logo.
Not too shabby! |
|
|
| Here
