Shared by buildersstudio in the General Crafts
Product Description:
The wood top grip to this cane is a a clasic retro looking robot... the Rocket Boy Bot! Spheroid head with hemisphere ears, he's done up with a coppery metallic body with gold and silver limbs and highlights, rocket pack on his back and heart button on his chest. He just blasted off and is trailing a red streak of fire behind him!Made almost 100% from wood unless stated otherwise (I sometimes use tiny amounts of other things) I use paint and many finishes, often metallic, and make sure a lot of details shine through, often even the wood grain itself despite high tech themes. They maintain an often retro, sometimes even rustic look and feel to them, like an "olde worlde" toy or something (some more so than others ... I am told that surprisingly many do not even look like they are wood, but like metal or some manmade material... you can usually tell by the photos).
This top sculpture piece (the robot himself) of this creation is about 5 1/2" high, noting that about half of that height is overlapped with the cane part (remember, 2 1/2 centimeters to an inch).
The rod is made of transparent acrylic plexi in a clear but deep ruby red color about 1/2 inch in diameter; the cane's entire total length is about 37" tall. The bottom has a protective white plastic tip. Note that these are fashion accent canes of an artistic bent not for heavy, medical use (though I do make them quite sturdy!).
