Card Sculpture Robots: Joker69 and Ace

Description

Here's an old art project of mine- playing card sculptures of two Gundam-ish robots. Yes, I cut up a deck of playing cards to make these guys...I'm sorry. Many tubes of super glue and cheap dollar store cards were sacrificed to make robots.

These robots were partly inspired by Gundam and a little bit of Transformers...and maybe just wee dash of other various inspirations....

So I started out making just one robot- the one I named "Ace", then the teacher emphasized how she wanted these to be asymmetrical sculptures...so I lopped off one of Ace's arms and made him a battle-damaged robot.

Then I finished my project before everyone else, so I made another robot, which I nicknamed "Joker69". It's a little hard to see, but to make him asymmetrical, I made one of his arms break off and dangle on a few wires.

I added way too many tiny details that no one will probably be able to see, but the nicknames I gave those two robots tie in with what's on their shields and/or other objects they possess...I didn't think too seriously about good nicknames, but those two names stuck in my head and now that's the only way I can refer to these guys...

So critique time came along, and Joker69's tail was broken off- no idea how that happened. Then someone knocked him off the table and broke his sword. Thankfully, the guy was very apologetic and glued the sword back on...backwards. Oh, well- 'twas a nice gesture- I appreciated the help. :)
