Title: Alice Cooper

I have been trying to come up with an Alice Cooper sculpture, it's taken a few days but I think is taking shape.
Been a bit stressful with twisters block thrown in as well if there is such a thing.
I need to make the hands more shaped and posed and then have a more rock stance, if anyone has a good shoe design I would be interested.

Its very good Graham, really recognisable. Perhaps a few more black lines on the face for make up around the mouth. That's my only minor suggestion!

nice one!

I added the black down the side of the mouth and a couple of minor alterations which no one would have known about except for me.

So there I was watching Room 101, when Alice Cooper threatens to put balloon twisting in! Well I was outraged and thought, if only he saw that one Graham did of him....when who should come on the show but our own Graham Lee riding to the rescue!!! Well done Graham for saving our wonderful art  :D

I'm sitting at Phoenix airport waiting for my flight home from Twist & Shout and looked up the BBC iplayer but it can only be viewed in the UK.
I have just found the clip on YouTube if anyone would like to view, the balloon modelling starts from 8 mins 40 secs, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpPdXWWWoGc (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpPdXWWWoGc)

They did take a picture of Alice with the sculpture but they came out very dark and we only talked on set as it was a total surprise for the show.

Awesome sculpture and I'd say, one utterly gobsmacked Alice Cooper! Way to go Graham :0)

I was actually driving some people who were involved with the show (I work full time as a chauffeur/private hire driver in London), and they were very impressed with the production.

Good for you Graham... I would love to meet Alice.

Long Live Rock and Roll....

They repeated room 101 again tonight, I think we are now up to 6/7 or maybe 8 times it has been on with Alice Cooper.

I have been informed that Alice was repeated on room 101 last night, I checked the website hits and they are up 75% yesterday. Maybe I will get a few more phone calls.

Not sure if I posted the picture of Alice with Alice on to the forum, I was just updating my portfolio.
The production team sent me the picture after the event.

Alice Cooper was back on TV again last night.
I think it was shown twice on two different channels.
It has been repeated so may times now, shame I only got the one fee  ;D ;)
