***Finished***A while back Dale Keown did an article in Wizard discussing drawing techniques, and one of the examples he used was a simple sketch of PITT and Timmy from his Full Bleed title. Once I seen it I knew this sketch would be very versatile with different projects I was looking to have done based on the PITT character. This is one of those projects a glass etched display based on that sketch. I wanted to have the glass display to have a rough/beat up design including damage done to the base. I felt since the character is so violent it would only be fitting the surrounding structure be abused, and also if it did get smacked around it would only add to its character. The images below are from sketch to completed etched glass (The Blue on the back of the glass is tape used in the cutting process), and it took 5 hours for the computer to finish the design. I am still waiting on the base which is being cut from a solid block of aluminum which would finalize the project. You can get a rough idea from the preliminary design how it all will come together. I have included into the base design the PITT logo which will be lighted like the main glass piece.

There was a lot involved in this project from having the glass custom made, the lighting of the base, how to connect the chains to the base, and then the custom glass logo that will be attached to the base which will be lighted using a different color. Here is a picture of the base they just started it.

Honestly the sky is the limit I feel just take a look at this helmet case. I could see a recreation of Hulk V1/0001 etched into a case that holds the SS Grey HULK.

Here is an image of the base in the early stage with the main glass attached (Minus the blue tape.). The glass logo and chain still have to be applied, and some alteration to the base is in the works also. The red glow is the lighting for the glass logo.
