Bahasa Indonesia
Dari bentuk kotak , saya harus shape dan bikin bolongan untuk tali bisa masuk + di stamp juga
ENGLISH

From the box shape, I have to shape it and make a hole for the rope to fit in + stamp it too

Bahasa Indonesia
Harus ada mangkok kecil untukk membasahkan beads, supaya lebih lembut, dan untuk bersihkan metal stamp + membasahkan jari jari
 / ENGLISH
There must be a small bowl to wet the beads, so they are softer, and to clean the metal stamp + wet your fingers

Bahasa Indonesia
Makin banyak Beadsnya, setelah di shape, harus di angin2in tanpa langsung kena sinar matahari. 
supaya tidak cepat kering dan pecah, harus di angin anginin saja
 ENGLISH
The more beads you have, the more they need to be shaped. Once they're shaped, they should be allowed to air dry without direct sunlight.
To prevent them from drying out and cracking quickly, they should be allowed to air dry.

Bahasa Indonesia 
yang saya belajar dari experience ini, saya harus pisah2in dulu yang akan di pakai supaya tidak salah.
salah satu masukan juga , hurufnya harus di bersihin sebisa mungkin supaya pas nanti stamping terlihat lebih bagus , karena kalau ada kotoran, akan membuat shape hurufnya agak tidak keliatan jelas
ENGLISH 
What I learned from this experience is that I have to separate the ones I'm going to use first to avoid mistakes. One other suggestion is that the letters should be as clean as possible so that they look better when stamping, because if there's dirt, it will make the letter shapes a bit unclear.


Bahasa Indonesia 
Akan terlihat seperti Ini Nanti bilamana sudah kering dan sudah di pasang tali dan di sambungkan ke tas
 ENGLISH
It will look like this later when it is dry and the rope has been attached and connected to the bag.

Bahasa Indonesia 
Saya masih punya sisa cat mobil dari proyek Vespa saya yang terakhir. Tapi catnya sudah lama didiamkan dan perlu dicampur dengan benar dan diberi terpentin karena catnya sudah lama mengeras. Saya punya ide untuk membedakan Tom Sachs Beads dengan milik saya. Ide saya adalah mencelupkan manik-manik ke dalam cat dan membiarkannya menetes, sehingga tertutup cat kuning karena warnanya adalah warna utama Iam-Ran.
ENGLISH 
I still have a spare Car Paint from my last project of My Vespa. but it had been sitting for so long and the paint need to be mix properly and give terpentine cause it had slowly become hard.I had an idea to differenciate Tom Sachs Beads to mine. my idea was to dip the beads in the paint and let it drip off , so it is coverd in yellow paint as it is Iam-Ran  main color


Bahasa Indonesia 
Ketika terpentin dimasukkan, awalnya saya kaget karena catnya menggumpal menjadi potongan-potongan kecil, tetapi saya ingat ketika saya masih sekolah Seni, saya harus mencampurnya dengan baik agar terpentin tercampur dengan cat dan menghasilkan cat yang lebih lembut dan tidak terlalu kental.
ENGLISH 
As the terpentine is put in, i was shock at first that the paint clumps into chunks but i remember on my Art school days, that i need to mix it well so the terpentine will mix with the paint and give a more softer paint and not too thick.

Bahasa Indonesia 
Saat saya mencampurnya, Anda dapat melihat perlahan cat yang kental itu menjadi lebih encer, tetapi saya tetap membutuhkannya agar lebih encer, karena cat mobil sangat kental!
ENGLISH 
As i mix them togather u can see slowly the thick paint slowly become more runnier, but i still need it to be more runnier, cause the car paint is very thick !

Bahasa Indonesia
Saya coba masukn thinnernya dan saya liat paintnya makin menipis tetapi masih agak tebal. 
ENGLISH
I tried adding the thinner and I saw that the paint was getting thinner but still quite thick.

Bahasa Indonesia
I still feel the paint is very thick and viscous, I need to thin it out more to make it runnier. I'll buy more therpentine. I just finished 100ml, because I think it's still too thick and doesn't flow as smoothly as I'd like. I need  to buy more terpentine this paint to be a bit thinner so the beads show a little more detail.

Bahasa Indonesia 
Saya sedang mengujinya dengan mencelupkan manik-manik ke dalam cat mobil dengan viskositas yang sedikit lebih kental, tidak setipis yang saya harapkan untuk pengujian ini. Saya masih perlu membeli therpentine (sudah dalam perjalanan) untuk mengencerkan cat lebih lanjut agar cat yang mengental tidak merusak detailnya.. 
ENGLISH 
I'm testing by dipping the beads into car paint with a slightly thicker viscosity, not as thin as I'd hoped for just testing.I still need to buy therpentine (its on the way) to thin the paint even more so the thickens will not kill the detail.


Bahasa Indonesia 
Saya dip di cat pertama dengan sedikit terpentine, sangat pekat dan tebal sampai kayak layer tebal menutupi detail beadsnya.
ENGLISH 
I dipped it in the first paint with a little turpentine, very thick and thick until a thick layer covered the detail of the beads completely and become a blob.

Bahasa Indonesia 
Ini adalah dip kedua dengan cat saya tumpahi semua dari botol terpentine 100ml untuk catnya lebih menipis. biarpun masih agak  terlihattebal, tapi mulai terlihat ada shape dikit, dan banyak perubahan lebih tipisan dari pada yang sebelomnya. (Photo ini , beads baru saja di dip dan lagi process keringin).  harus beli terpentin lebih banyak lagi dan mix dengan baik, supaya paintnya sangat lebih tipis dan tidak tebal, jadi lebih liquid dan gampang drip .
ENGLISH 
This is the second dip with the paint I spilled all from the 100ml turpentine bottle to make the paint thinner. Although it still looks a bit thick, it is starting to look a little shape, and there are many changes that are thinner than before. (This photo, the beads have just been dipped and are in the process of drying). I have to buy more turpentine and mix it well, so that the paint is much thinner and not thick, so it is more liquid and easy to drip.
