Krakaboom!

About a month ago, The FX studio I work at (Luma Pictures) wrapped up our work on Marvel's new Thor movie. To commemorate, I made a little sculpture of Mjolnir embedded in stone. This was actually the first time I ever sculpted an existing object, instead miscellaneous patterns and arrangements that suited the properties of the magnets. It's also the first time I had to use non-buckyball parts. In order to strengthen the handle and keep it from falling off when tilted, I embedded a AA battery in the base. (The movie turned out great too!)
