Very cool!

iKITT wrote:I've been coming back here for a while, and I really have an appreciation for you and your work. I'm currently doing some mosaic stuff, and it's very time consuming and temperamental; everything that comes out is based on how the glass reacts to you snipping at it and cutting it and grinding it down. Sometimes it almost gets frustrating because you waste glass because the cut was really jagged or whatever. Of course, I've only basically got a scoring tool, a breaking tool and nippers to work with, so that makes the work harder and a lot less accurate to say the least.

Your work on this is absolutely fantastic and I certainly hope those old tools last until this is completed.

Thank you very much. And yes, I know what you mean but the wasting glass part. I would have to say that about 1/3 of a square foot of glass that I used is wasted. But...I save it all! I am planning on doing a Challenger mosaic of my Kile. My biggest fear with this piece is the very thin lines. With copper tape and all I am afraid that the solder will cover up the glass, making it all one silver line. I hope that it will not come out like that.

But I thank you all for your compliments. It really helps me with ideas and to keep going. I'll post another update later tonight. AND...if anyone would like...I will post some of my other KR glass that I have done on here.

Okay, here's that update I told yall about. I got the roof done on Ki2t and im getting close to finishing Ki3t.

What do yall think? Look good so far? Oh!!! I am going to the store tomorrow to get the mirror for the windows!!! It's on sale!!!

Okay, here is the other KR glass I have done.

I did this as a Christmas gift for a friend on here, My-Friend-KITT to be exact.

This is my Kile AI that I did.

Here was my first 3D assignment. The cobra is supposed to be Ki3t's attack mode cobra.

I also did this as a gift for My-Friend-KITT. She has done so much for me with helping me with my stories. I decided to pay her back with making her something in glass art. I originally drew this picture, and then decided to put it on glass since she liked it so much.

I am currently doing a frame for this sandblasting. I had it done before, but it shattered and I have to start all over. This is what it will eventually look like. (This was before it shattered.)

This was my first piece ever done in glass art. It's a fused necklace, about an inch wide and an inch and a half tall. It is supposed to be Ki2t's scanner on top, a K in the middle, and Ki3t's scanner on bottom. But I had to put two pieces of clear on top and it made a line down the middle which kinda messed the whole thing up. But I still have it, it's hanging on my dream catcher.

Here is Ki2t. I started him last school year but I didn't finish him until the beginning of this school year. I am currently trying to do another one of him because this ended up being scratched up badly. But he still looks cool.



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... sski2t.jpg

And here is Ki3t. The original one I did broke right after I finished him. Ugh. So I made another and put his name above him. I plan on doing the same with Ki2t and making something like a stand, but I haven't gotten around to it since I'm so busy with doing both of my Kitts.



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... C_0476.jpg

I drew this as a design for Kal-el4 by hand. This is his Ki2t's design. I decided to do this for him in glass.

Okay, I have soo much more that I have done, but they are not KR related. I have done two of my favorite trucks in sandblastings, a challenger sandblasting, I am working on a mosaic of Kile's attack mode, a couple of horses I have sandblasted, and I have done a stained glass horse suncatcher for a very good friend. I have done Christmas gifts as well for my family plus melted glass for a couple of vases. I can also do glass beads, but I am not the best in them right now. I need practice.

There is so much that I can do and I only have less than a few months to do it in!!! I wish I could do so much more!!! lol. Anyways, I hope you don't mind me doing a show and tell. If you would like to see any others of mine, let me know and I will post them up here. I don't mind showing my work around!!!

OMG!!! So much progress! I bet the final result's gonna be amaaaaaaazing! Keep up the awesome work! You're definitely talented at what you do!

I had a two hour period today and I got a TON done! Hope yall like!!!!!!

The entire piece:

I am also working on a sandblasting that I now hope to take to Las Vegas to get signed.



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... rGlass.png

I am about half way done with it so I want to try to get it finished by tomorrow. Yes, I know it's shown as Karr...but it was the first picture I could find so that I could photoshop it and print it out.

Well, that's the updates for this week! I just got the news that I MIGHT be going to Vegas. Mom and dad said that they wanted to surprise me for a late birthday gift because they weren't able to do anything special for my birthday these past couple of years. And I have been begging them constantly to go. So...I hope to see yall who are going there!!!!!

Jess,
That stained glass is simply AMAZING!
I know that you have the road all cut out...
So you are almost done with the cutting of the glass, huh?

WOW!
Just WOW!

It looks Awesome!

I can't wait to see it all together!
KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK!

lol, Thanks Kim. Oh, and I am not going to the fest for those of you who I told. The check won't be in for any money until next week and the motorhome is in shop to figure out what is wrong with the generator. I can't go. Oh well.

Yay! Keep up the good work!

Wow...those are simply amazing! I might be interested in buying one of KI3T if you decide to start selling them!

Those sandblasting are simply amazing! I love the stained glass window, too!
I too would be interested in buying one of each K.I.T.T. if you start selling them.

Hehe, I've gotten a bunch of people asking if I could sell some of my stuff... But I do have a question for someone who would know this answer...What would I have to do to be able to sell something? My dad mentioned something like a permit and would I have to get permission from NBC to use Ki3t on the glass? I really have no idea... I've never done something like this before. I would love to sell you guys my art work but I don't know how I would go about getting permission from the owners of KR. Would anyone be able to help me?

Oh, another update coming up soon. I do have the black done on both Ki2t and Ki3t, but I hope to get the road done today so I'll try to post a pic this afternoon or maybe tomorrow.

Okay, update time. I wasn't able to get the road done before this...It's raining outside and freakin cold. Maybe later I can bring my glass inside and work on it tonight. *shrugs* We'll see. But here's what I have so far. All of the black is done on both Ki2t and Ki3t. All I have left is the tires and one light on Ki3t and the fog lights on Ki2t and then the road. After that, I am done and I have to sandblast the stripes on Ki3t and then put it all together! I am praying that I can get this done by April 7th... If I do I get 50 extra credit points in my class and I get to put this into a sort of 'contest' thing. It would be fun. *crosses fingers that I am able to do it*

Anyways, here's the update!!!

Hope yall like! And as for the selling of pieces...See my above post. ^^^

Another update on some other stuff...

Here is the sandblasting I was going to take to Vegas. Maybe next year I'll get it signed.



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... C01262.jpg

And...Here's My-Friend-KITT's frame!!! All done!!! Im gonna have to ask her to get her Kitt in it and take a pic to put up here.



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... C01322.jpg

WOW!
Amazing Jess!
They look sooo beautiful!

*crosses fingers*

I hope you get it done in time...

But don't rush too fast.

I didn't see that last post...Sorry!

I love the Frame everybody!
And it is sooooo heavy!

I will have to show you what it looks like together.

THANK YOU A MILLION 2K&3KKITT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT WAS ONE OF IF NOT THE BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER!

Well...I got them all cut!!!! I can't believe it!!! Finally!!!



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... C01583.jpg

AND!!! I got them all copper taped tonight! Except for the parts I have to sandblast. That's tomorrow. But then tomorrow night I plan on soldering it all together! Then Wednesday I get to put the edges around and then they go in the contest that night!!! I can't wait!!!!!!!

I'll show yall a final picture when I get a chance. But right now, ^^^ is what I got!!!

Thanks yall!!!

That is awesome! You got some true talent there, don't waste it! I'd frame it then have the KR cast sign it at the next convention! Or auction for charity!

AMAZING!
The KITTs just seem to get better and better...prettier and prettier!
I love how the copper tape on KI2T makes all the angles on his hood glow!
Simply amazing!

I can't wait to see them when they are done!

The long awaited moment you all have been waiting for...My Kitts are all in one piece!!! They aren't completely done yet...I still have the back and sides to solder and round bead and clean up the front, but at least it's all together. It didn't turn out like I wanted it too though...Kinda upsets me. You all may not notice, but I sure as heck can. But...here they are. Hope you all enjoyed. I plan on finishing them this weekend if I don't have any plans I didn't know about.



http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n19/ ... kitts1.png

And yes, that's me. I know, I'm ugly as heck hehehe. That was at the open house tonight. Mine and one other were the only two that had stands. And I was one of the only ones who actually got their glass final into the show. Wish me luck on the contest! I hope I do halfway decent!!!

That is gorgeous! You are very tallented!

I would totally buy that. Excellent work!

That is awesome stuff! And don't let yourself or anyone else say you're ugly! I would totally love to have that hanging in my den, but I imagine it's not really for sale, eh?

lol, Thanks guys. And no, I can't sell it. And no offense, I don't want to. I'll have to find out a way to sell Knight Rider glass and go through with all the legalities. I think it would be really fun and a great way to earn a couple extra bucks. But right now...I'm tryin to figure out getting into college and finishing my Senior Project up and getting ready to graduate. One of these days I'll start selling some glass for you all. Just might not be for a while.

I dont think the Knight Rider lawyers would care if you donated the money to a charity if you did decide to sell that work of art. Then again, if there was a problem with selling Knight Rider stuff, Ebay would be in a world of hurt!

Keep up the good work!
