The Noid
One of my first assignments was to make lots of Noids. We were doing a commercial called "Ice-o-matic". I got to make these guys with the ice machines on their backs and the ice floor surface which was just 1/8" Plexiglas with white china marker lines drawn on the back side. I made the skates by cutting out thin brass sheeting and then painting it with flat blue acrylic paint. The ice sickles were made by melting 1/8 " plexiglass rods with a torch and pulling them apart to form tapered ends.

I just ordered a bunch of tiny plastic Noids from Ebay. Did you sculpt any of those?
Yeah man most of them. Some were sculpted out of basswood in china.
Great work dude...The Noid was one of the characters who got me into stopmo!
So you're working on Coraline too eh?
Lucky you :P
See ya
Thanks for checking out the blog. The Noid was a great campaign. I was lucky to be a part of it and will never forget those days.
