Let's twist again......***The Dance is Done***

Any subject, any scale, just so long as it fits within the outer diameter of a CD (or DVD, or BlueRay). And some of those famous UAMF extra ninja brownie bonus points if you can match the CD/DVD with the subject of the build.

And we're done!

Coat-hanger from dry-cleaners cut, straightened and then rolled around an aerosol for the mount, picture of Sywell from the air stuck onto a piece of MDF that is (honestly) CD size, some stuffing out of one of the dog's toys for smoke and my first ever attempt at a prop blur as well!

I forgot to print the CD cover.....will try to remember later

I am also wondering what happened to the yellow one?

But then again, this looks great.

Cheers Chaps!
The yellow one got dropped at the last minute as it would have over crowded the scene and it would also have been next to impossible to keep the spiral trails separate. Such is life!

Agree. Posed in front of a blue background, even better :) Great idea, well executed.
