Released in 1984 as a single, 'Pearly-Dewdrops' Drops' features Elizabeth Fraser's ethereal vocals layered over shimmering guitars and a driving rhythm. This iconic song, found on the EP 'The Spangle Maker', showcases the Cocteau Twins' dreamy, atmospheric sound, defining a generation of alternative music.
Ghost butterfly. I’ve never seen such a worn one flying about before. Most of the scales have fallen off and its wings are like gossamer. In case you can’t recognise it, it’s a peacock. #ethereal#butterfly#nature
An Ethereal sunset along the Gulf Islands National Seashore. I enjoy all of the Emerald Coast but there is something special about the undeveloped untouched white sand beaches met by the clear emerald-colored waters.
Another ebay rescue. A firewarrior was included in a job lot of model stuff.
A single firewarrior is not terribly useful, so I decided to turn it into an Ethereal.
First I had to fix the bad gluing and strip the paint.
Then I removed the grenade in his hand and built a glaive for him to hold.
And then added robes and a cloak (putty-covered metal sheet).
Paint was based on the Buddhist monk's reds and oranges.
