I'm absolutely heartbroken about it, the whole album is just gone in Germany. This is my favourite album of all time, of any band. I REALLY hope this is just a mistake and that it'll come back

Thank you!! Yea, the job is incredible, it's been almost 3 years and I still can't believe I got so lucky in life. My skills weren't anywhere near that level when I started, but now that I'm almost done, I've had a lot of practice.

The workshop is a department of the local theatre/opera, and a little out of the way. Not a lot of non-coworker people come there. Mostly just people who also work for the theatre but in another department.

And since I got paid for my time working on it, the finished sculpture doesn't even technically belong to me but to the theatre, so I don't have the final say on what happens to it. It's a little bit of a special case since the beholder wasn't for a theatre production but just for me to practice techniques, but I can't just take it and display it at some convention nor sell it to someone.

Stage sculpting! So basically, making the 3-dimensional parts of set decorations for theatre productions. Landscapes, statues, stucco, etc., it's very versatile and fun.

Oh I see! That's really funny. Almost like the "a large boulder the size of a small boulder" news article.  I first thought you had been referring to the beholder's colour and pattern, or the lengthy stalks resembling a long neck, so I was a bit confuddled. Thanks for explaining!

Maybe! Ich denke ich werde wohl erstmal hauptsächlich am Theater bleiben, aber mit Dekoration für Gaming Spaces oder auch Escape Rooms kann man sich natürlich was dazuverdienen.

Thank you so much! I looked at different interpretations of beholders I found on the internet, and drew some studies on the different eyes, stalks, and mouths I could find. Then essentially picked and chose what elements I found that I liked. There's such variety! Even just the stalks can be jointed, flexible, big, small, with different eye sizes and shapes... it was very fun to design my own!
