So I've decided to enter the 'Creature of 9' contest. Can't wait to see that movie!

Anyway, so I'm building a critter. My poor father has to fight me for most of his tools now. And I've soldered before, but only little quick fixes around the house, not extensive hours-on-end of doing it like I am for this. I've learned some things. Thing that you would think would be pretty obvious. Such as:

-Don't test to see if the solder pen is getting hot by sticking your finger on it.

-That nice pine scent is the smell of your future babies becoming retarded. Good thing I don't want kids anyway.

-Bobby pins get hot very very fast.

-900 degree Fahrenheit soldering pen tip plus dropping it on your new jeans = spontaneous combustion on your thigh!

-The pen can get too hot. When this happens, the resin in the flux will pop and go flying like bacon grease! Likely it will land someplace sensitive.


Anyway, I'm having an assload of fun. I hope I can get it done by the deadline.... I have ideas for at least 2 other sculptures as well. Maybe I can get them all done and entered, but I'll be ecstatic at completing one.

Also! If you want porn, check out my LJ! I have some tasty slash fanfiction posted up there that's a tad.... explicit for DevArt.
