I stared a new project tentatively called the Triceratops machine

I base the idea on the original model made some 68 million year ago.

This is a skeleton in the Los Angeles Natural History Museum.

Normally, when I make a sculpture, I kind of build everything all equal.

In otherwords I build all components all together until they are all completed at the same time.

This time I am going to change my approach and build the head first, up to about 90% and then start of the body and then the legs.

I drew out a design and cut it out of 1 mm plate.

Then I soldered the various components plates together

Then I changed my mind and I cut the spike off and put a 3 mm plate on top

Then I made a stainless steel central spike and some horn/spikes on top of the head.

I drew the eye out.

In any sculpture I have ever made, the eye is always the most difficult.

It can seriously fuck a piece up if it is wrong.

Next is making the eye
