I've finally managed to complete my lamp idea. After a few adjustments switching to acetate instead of tracing paper, I'm fairly happy with the result. The tracing paper was not translucent enough and didn't let the light through from the bulb. The acetate works a little better after I dropped the opacity of the images that I printed.
The acetate looks ok on the light box too.
Building up more than one layer on the light box with the acetate.
More layers added.
With the lamp construct completed, I can now insert the hexagonal plates.
After seeing this in the flesh, I'm quite pleased at how it has turned out. It is far removed from my original idea, but this is a good thing. I feel I have grown as an illustrator this semester and hope to carry on this improvement in the next semesters.
