Baby fox commission! Quite a small piece, was fun to make.

CD shards (over 25 CDs and DVDs used )
Wire mesh frame
Hot glue
Black paint
1 week work time

I use kitchen scissors to cut the shapes I need out of the CDs, then arrange each shard by colour and size. I then hot glue those shards one-by-one to a wire mesh frame to create a natural fur pattern. They usually take a week to make, maybe longer depending on how motivated I am to get them done!

Some people are curious about what's on the CDs/DVDs that I cut up to make these sculptures. This is what's on the discs I used to make this one:

Family Guy: Season 7
The Simpsons: Seasons 20 & 19
Death at a Funeral
Westernex product catalogues

Note: The TV series are crappy, knock-off copies from Indonesia, they always come on cool, golden discs.
