Wallace Loves Cheese

Stop-motion animator Lawrence Becker of SamplerTimes Studios got his hands on a 40-pound block of sharp cheddar cheese. But rather than getting out the crackers right away, he decided to sculpt a model of one half of the duo of Wallace and Gromit before snacking.

Sculpting Wallace out of a 40 lb block of sharp cheddar. Wallace loves cheese & #stopmotion so he seemed like the perfect fit. Hoping anyone at @aardmananimations sees this (update* they did!), because it may not show in my work, but they were my biggest influence when I was first getting into stop motion. @greg_condon and I actually used their eyeball/face kit for our senior art project in high school. Also, thanks to @tillamook for the extra cheese! ***I gave away/ate almost all of it for those asking . . . #stopmotionanimation #sculpture #sculpting #wallaceandgromit #aardman #animation #sculpt #cheese #foodie #stopframe #tillamook
