Chandelier Saga Part 4: The Big Day

Seeing this installed and lit up was fantastic. It was hung in a big tent for a fundraising gala banquet, and it really held its own in the big space. I don't know who it was who had the idea to scatter the smaller paper lamps around the chandelier, but it was a fantastic idea.

I went in before the event started to take photos, and they had lit it up beautifully with color-shifting spot lights. The effect was really cool. By the time the banquet started, though, they'd toned that down to let it illuminate itself. I did very much enjoy seeing the play of colored shadows across the textured surface, but seeing the light seeping from below the scales, making it glow from within as I'd hoped it would, made all that work worth it.

Everyone seemed to love it, which was awesome. The Possible Project, who had commissioned the design, made a couple of these available on their Kickstarter, and two people ordered one. So there will be a couple more of these made!
