Way cool! Maintainers Guild has always been my favorite. They were totally epic. This piece, like them, is also pretty epic.

It's items like these that I wish that I could properly do in larger numbers.

Thanks, Luv!
I'm working on another one that has a different base, but the same lighting effect. I'll post it here when it is done.
As for "golden hands", I think they are more of a Dutch Boy pale flesh tone. But it's not always what you got, but how you use it. Right? LOL

That's a cool piece. Could a Maintainer read comfortably by its light, or is it more like a nightlight?

You're welcome!
Yeah I think so too, have you thought about making more? Or different styles?

I'll likely be doing more "one-offs" in various styles, since it is so challenging to find similar pieces.

Stop coming up with awesome ideas. You might hurt yourself.(Thanks, though!)
The molds idea has worked well in the past for cool, little texture bits. If some unique piece can be molded, I'm all for that!! I definitely does save time and, often, money. But the pieces have to be fairly easy to mold. One-sided is often the best. Small is ideal. Large metal parts, or bulky objects like the lamp base, are a little trickier.
But we are definitely on the same creative page!!

Yeah, I can see with the base, and you have to have adequate air "vent" thingies...I forgot what they are called. (I don't do things like that, but tend to read about it)
Unless you can sculpt the base out of paperclay or something durable to make a mold, then fill the mold to make a cast. I also saw you could buy those plaster cloths. cut up those sheets, wet 'em and lather them into general forms, and sand away.
LOL I am sorry, that is my critical thinking thing going on. I

wow, I would love to be the one who got this! My only quibble would be that that's the Maintainer logo, not the writer.

Thanks for the compliment!!
You are more than welcome to share it on your MAEA Facebook page!
It's a one-of-a-kind piece, having spent the last year in limbo, waiting to discover its purpose and meaning within the D'ni culture. It is already sold and will find a home on a modern-day Guild Writer's desk soon!!

Thanks, Sweetie!
The "lamp" base had been sitting for almost a year, waiting for it's purpose to be discovered. Then I was taken by a muse. The rest is ancient D'ni history!!
BTW, I've just re-applied for some part-time work and an hoping for night stock. Talk me up and wish me luck!!
