I had an inquiry and a request for close-ups... here ya go. Four photos and some notes.
1. The apparel sits against the back right corner.
2. The shelf is made out of a few sizes of craft sticks, painted brown. Nearby are signage, bike rack and bike, stool.
3. Top shelf - catalog... more on this in the final picture.
Next down - helmets. Made these out of sculpey bakeable clay, painted with acrylics. Glued on some tiny straps and laces made out of paper.
Next - gloves. I just drew them and magic-markered them, cut them out and glued them down.
Next shelf down - shorts, again just drawn, colored, cut out, gled down.
Last - jerseys, drawn, cut out, and FOLDED for some extra dimension and realism.
On the floor - a few pairs of shoes, made of sculpey and painted with more acrylics.
4. Back to the catalog. I wanted a look of graphic precision, so I found a vintage cyclist
image online and pasted that into a Paint document, on which I picked some nice Paint fonts and
added the words. I glued it like a cover, on a "stack" of paper squares I had cut out and glued together, for the look of a book.
A catalog was important, because I didn't have the space or inclination to include an array of
clothes, so I just figured Cycle Guy could order stuff on demand!
