Artist's Comments

I made a lantern thingie.
Its made of some pretty sticks I found in ze woods, leather and dried fish skin.

Its hard to photograph these kind of thingies, they look better IRL hmmm.

I took so many photos when I made this, I could make a tutorial. Maybe I will. ^^

:llama:
I had to.

What a cool lamp! It has a very nice, soft glow, reminds me of fairytales, mysterious forests and stuff.. ;) What an interesting idea to put fish skin on it!
Love it :)

How do you get that fish skin? (did you stink out your house with a dead fish???? I wonder)
anyway that's excellent !

It's beautiful. I love the organic nature of it combined with functionality. If you get around to a tutorial, I would love to see your process. :)

Yeea. I dont think its thaat weird.. :XD:
In ze old times they used swine bladder to make things like this. But then I saw some modern laterns (and other stuff) made with fish skin so I wanted to try.

Yea, my partens had bought a salmon so I took the skin off before cooking it :O And cleaned it and let it dry.

Thanks ^^

True enough. But it might be adaptable for those of a more delicate disposition. :)
