DIY PIXAR: Luxo Jr. Lamp

Step 8Painting

Painting
Whew!  Now that you've rescaled all of the parts, cut out the various body hinges, and completed both Z Shaped brackets, it's time to begin painting!  You're almost finished!

Now, depending on what style you want your Luxo Jr. lamp to look like, you can either use White or Silver paint.  In the original animated short, Luxo Jr. is painted aluminum silver, but as seen in the PIXAR logo he is distinctly white.   I made mine silver, in honor of the short film, but you can do either one.

Just leave the parts up to dry when finished.
