First time poster long time lurker, anyway i figured i would post pictures of the art(ish) type things ive worked on. Lately ive been working on things made out of masking tape, heres what ive come up with so far.  Most are made from masking tape and wire, and usualy tin foil or construction paper for some underlying base.

KharBevNor:
I'm already kind of mourning for the point in about six months time when the glue on the tape starts unsticking. I'd suggest painting them with a thin coat of half liquid PVA, half water, if you want them to last.

Otherwise, not bad. The best one is the kitten, because you've used the material to give it some interesting qualities that you couldn't have done with just, say, conventional papier mache.

Now, you've got to decide what you want to say with them!

dudepope:
Its all in the tape really, the robot is about 1 year old now with not pealing, the hand i used a differnt type of masking tape which started pealing in about a week, but ive since found the same brand ive used before and stocked up quite thoughly on it.  But also as an extra precautionary measure im going to seal them, ive just got a bit more finishing work on them i need to do first.

valley_parade:
Oh man, I love the cat and ball.

(*cough* my medium of choice is noise)

Lines:
The kitten and the ball are really great, but the robot makes me smile, too.

What's your reason behind using masking tape?
