Ok, well, here, you can see a sharp contrast between the old pictures and the new pictures. The old candle, since it was out in the Canadian winter without a jacket, is discoloured and covered in snow.
The candle, now, has a layer of coloured wax over top of that shit. So, it looks fairly nice - as nice as a monstrously large candle can look.
At the back, where I point out the support beams, you'll notice that there's a lot more support. This support is done by splashing hot wax in the crevices that can't be reached by traditional methods. This process is helped out one of many blow-torches that I've gone through. I'd say, at this point, that I've gone through at least 25 cans of propane and 5 torch heads (the actual ignition valve/switch/whatever)(they come in all sorts of intelligent designs, torches).
So, yeah, take a look. That's where it's at now. Those pictures that I posted the other day weren't all that great for getting a picture of how the candle is composed - up close. Hopefully these ones will do better.
I'm currently on the hunt for people who have pictures of the candle that I don't. I know that there are plenty of people who've seen the candle and taken pictures of it - and didn't give me the pictures. If I had all these pictures, this process would be much easier. I have been focusing on making this candle all along, when really, I should have been taking pictures of it. Catch 22? Yes.
