So, my idea for project 3 stems partially from my advertisement. I decided to stick with the gunmetal blue color since I feel that it has an edge that MAC would most definitely choose for any of their cosmetic lines, but I also decided to add a liliac-pink (to soften up the project and add that romantic feel) and crimson obviously for the lips. I also decided to stick with the lace idea. For me, although I wasn't too huge of a fan of how the lace turned out on the second project, the idea of lace is very soft and feminine and to me very glamourous.
My first model (above, I apologize for the orientataion, but of course it won't let me change it) has the gunmetal background and the MAC logo written in liliac. I decided to glue the lace directly to the box and although it looks nice, after speaking with professor Leshinsky, I did agree that the lace competed with my colors and ideas a little. So we agreed to try using my colors and either painting or spray painting through.
Model 2 (i've also included a picture of the lace I used) was my attempt at painting through the lace. Originally, I was not a fan, then it kinda grew on me a little, and I thought "maybe I can make this work." But then I folded it, and it lost all its cute, patterned messiness and just looked like a mess...which is not exactly the plan I was going for.
So on to Plan B....
I like the idea of glamour for everyone and I can see why you would want to use the lace. Lace is classic old hollywood to me.
ReplyDeleteI think your second model is really cool, but doesn't really translate your idea. Maybe you can try printing a picture of the lace from the computer and gluing it to the paper.
