That bloody apron 1 3D versionby ~oingy-boingy

Fan Art / Cartoons & Comics / Traditional / Other

Creation of this despicable apron for MiniWorth was inspired by last week at work - I'd nicked this beige, grubby, ancient shop apron from the cleaner, on seeing me wearing it she informed me I looked "really scary, like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre man". I hadn't got a chainsaw to threaten her with for that, so I made do with throwing a screwdriver at her foot, heh. But then I thought that yeah, a filthy bloodstained old leather work apron would be a very worrying thing to see Worth in, so when I got home I made him one to wear

Some new little props in there too - the blue rubber gloves and rolls of medical tape cut from the full size versions, and a new packet of cigarettes, box of matches, and cigarette ends for scattering on the floor. And curiously Worth seems to have started collecting his OWN assorted crap, too, cos there's some turquoise square thing in his ashtray* which I didn't put there on purpose so either it fell in the box of set-dressing stuff since last time I used it, or Worth's been buying/stealing stuff and not telling me, heh

*Ashtray, and why Worth would have one - A sarcastic joke gift from Lamont one christmas, which probably got thrown back at his face in a characteristically grumpy violent reaction from the Doc, and when it didn't smash he was amused at it's toughness and decided to keep it. But he never bothers using it for ash or dog ends, that's what the floor's for, so it just sits there with the occasional paperclip or spare unidentified pill he's found and hasn't a clue what bottle he spilt it from, heh

And once I'd got the idea I ended up with not one but two versions - I drew him in it, too, you can see the pixel version here : [link]

There was a weird epilogue to the real version of this apron I wore, too - later in the day I'd just folded up a load of paper money and stuffed it in the pocket when some opportunistic thief decided to come round the wrong side of my desk and try taking it out again! I hit him and snapped "Don't touch girls. Twat." And he ran away, so maybe I DO look a little bit scary when angry and wearing a worryingly serialkillerish apron

This is too spiffy for words. Excellent details on EVERYTHING. i have books on miniatures i know how hard this is. Seriously this awesome.

~oingy-boingy May 10, 2011

Thankyou! I started out making miniatures for horses, saddles and stables and stuff, and have just expanded it to make suitable-for-Worth props as well

I'm forever salvaging crap from bins and nicking things I think will be useful, my heap of 'things for maybe one day making things from' looks like a mini junk yard but it's amazing what you can actually make from rubbish and leftover bits of broken things - I've started making Conrad's apartment next and his bookcase is made of the bottom of a wooden French cheese packaging box which I picked up near a shop bin, heh

~devilkitten1 May 12, 2011

Oh that's so cool! Did you learn it from a book, if so which one? I'm always looking for good books on the subject. Were the sadles and stables for the Breyers horses? I had those. XD I've seen pieces made from polymer clays that were so realistic they're looked edible.
You're from the UK too aren't you?

~oingy-boingy May 17, 2011

No, I've never read any books on it, I make most of my stuff from scrap and various bits of salvaged rubbish, and the Fimo sculpting I just make up as I go along, it's all very haphazard and messy and takes me ages to figure out how to actually make some of the stuff, all guesswork and experimenting rather than doing the sensible thing and reading up on it and buying decent tools, lol

I do collect Breyer models, and loads of other brands, all different scales but the things I make are all 1 12th scale, like doll's house models, cos then I can cheat and buy a few things from doll's house shops if I can't make them myself, like the glass bottles and some of the plastic props, it's much easier to add things if working at the most popular scale!

And yup, I'm English

~devilkitten1 May 17, 2011

Aww, they don't have doll house shops where I live. Too far out in the country, scenery is lovely though so there's that.
Do you have to make the little tables too? The silver table, and the bookshelves in Conrad's apartment are amazing.

~oingy-boingy May 17, 2011

Yeah, the tables and chairs are all home-made, too, I probably /could/ buy those really easily, but I like making myself more work and doing as many things from scratch as I can XD

~devilkitten1 May 17, 2011

That's amazing, I can't even tell what they're made of!

~Skookin Apr 25, 2011 Hobbyist

the level of detail that you put into these is freaking astounding. Do you seriously make each tiny thing? And everything is to scale and the textures and stuff, really just awesome.

~oingy-boingy Apr 26, 2011

ahhh, thankyou!

I love when people enjoy seeing the little details as much as I enjoy making them!

A few of the things here are bought, stuff I can't make myself like the glass bottles and jars (though the stuff in them is all hand-made, like the leech, spider, eyes, the very sad-looking half dead rose, heh), and I bought the bottle of rum on the shelf behind him, and, ummmm...*looks at the picture again* ah, the tin trays he's got some surgical tools on were from the kitchen department of a dolls' house shop (hear that Worth, you're a DOLL, heheh), the plastic laundry basket was from ebay, and the half-glass of beer I bought for him too cos of course all the tidy professional doctors keep stale forgotten beer on their desks

But everything else there I made for him, I seem to forever have a little box of 'stuff for Worth' on my desk where I have ideas and put new props together and shove them in there waiting for his next photoshoot, he's so spoilt, heh

I love all of these so much!
