Process
Comets are ancient bodies of frozen ice and StarDust that formed beyond the orbit of the most distant planets and contain all the materials that are the building blocks of the solar system. A colorful, star-like pattern wraps the transformer painted with a lasercut stencil. A striped, melting cosmic goo pours over the box. Or, it's just a nice colorful pattern with the artist's signature simulated pour pattern. Either way, StarDust is a unique visual treat!
