G is for Glass


Here are my experiments for the 3D drop cap. First I tried using vintage jewelry from my grandmother to make a "V" (V for vintage). I liked how the V's shape and the way it hung resembled one big necklace itself, but simultaneously I really didn't like the way it just hung there and had to be suspended with thumbtacks, and it became boring. So, I tried something else. Below are the various configurations of glass bottles that I stacked to make a G. The current letter is in progress because I need more clear glass material... 




Also, the corner of one of the bottles cracked so I have to fix it...


Here's a detail of some marbles I added. I haven't cleaned up the glue yet:
