    Default Pandoran flora contraband

    Just back from Pandora and I smuggled these babies back with me







    Okay, so I'm just a plant-nerd and wanted to replicate the beautiful bioluminescent plants from Pandora and I don't have access to any genetically modified plants at the moment. This is just a couple of choice faux plants with some high-intensity and long-lasting glow paint strategically applied. The coverage could be better in places (will remedy when I have more paint), but I think it turned out rather well. When fully charged they light-up the corner of the room and they look very beautiful. Unfortunately they do fade quickly, but in a dark room they stay at least visible all night.

    Epic!!
    Cameron may have born Pandora, but living there must be made by your own hands. I have made Pandora with my hands, with color, oil, paint, and pencil.

    Like Pandora, it was hard work. Apply it to anything, you'll see the most complex of dreams come to life.

    You know, I always wanted to have a kind of uniquely decorated house (like a sea-themed bathroom, and I don't just mean cute lotion pumps and shell soaps, I mean like decorating the walls with stuff that looks like seaweed, ceiling with fish, etc) and you sir (and I have about an 85% chance that my assumption that you are male is correct) have been my inspiration :D. Glow in the dark plants! Glow in the dark decor! Yes!!! I also thought if you really just had to have your own Tree of Souls/Voices, you could start with these, lol .

    Its easy to take the glow-in-the-dark thing a little too far. Once I got my paints I wanted to paint everything and it took a lot of willpower not to Pandorify all my lamp-shades! Actually the first thing I did was paint the little face dots on my Jake poster

    I specifically wanted these plants to appear pretty normal during the daytime (some of the usual glow stuff is pretty tacky). You have to balance the natural-magical look without taking it to the acid-trip level.

    I like those glow ropes...I actually thought they used those the first time I saw the movie, but then remembered it was all 3D! The only draw-back is that you have to plug them in...kind of ruins the magic. "Wait! I have to plug-in the Utral Aymokriyä!"

    OOH! OOH! SOMEBODY SHOULD MAKE A COMPLETLEY NEON LIGHT UP TREE OF SOULS REPLICA!
    Even if you had to plug in in, it would still be epic because in the dark you wouldn't see the plug.
