Three Owls More

So, it seems that the Owl Gang is getting bigger by the day! These three have just joined in:


WILL

He is made out of a wooden box (sanded and stained with a water-based, wengué colour varnish and with bronzed hinges and Chinese-style clasp closure to form the beak. Oh, and turned upside down, too!), some new and old rusty washers for the huge eyes and a couple of thick bolts and washers for the legs-feet. His wings are two flaps from a cooking steamer basket, and the pointy ears are made out of those metallic bits used to secure pictures to the frames. 9x9x10cm.

PHILL

He is also made out of a wooden box (turned upside-down, sanded and stained with a water-based, wengué colour varnish and with bronzed hinges and Chinese-style clasp closure to form the beak), some new and old rusty washers for the huge eyes and a couple of thick bolts for the legs, a pair of drawer knob back plates for the feet.

NELL

She is also made out of a wooden box, only not square-shaped -as her brothers'- but wider and shorter (I have also turned it upside-down, sanded and stained it with a water-based, wengué colour varnish. It has the usual Chinese-style clasp closure to form the beak), a couple of thick bolts for the legs. The eyes are made out of some new and old rusty washers and a vintage bronze drawer knob back plate.
His wings are two flaps from a cooking steamer basket, and the pointy ears are made out of those metallic bits used to secure pictures to the frames. 9x10x9cm.
