wow - it has been a while hasn't it? Hi all, and thanks for stopping in. First of, sorry for the really long delay in doing anything to it until recently. RL has interfered a lot as have other projects blah blah. We all know the reasons why etc that things go on hold but, I do have an update that's worth showing
So, I am unable to paint anything ATM due to weather and other such stuff like getting ready to move up north to Brisbane at the end of the year, plus a reno and as such, that limited my options. But I have been chomping at the bit to get restarted on just
something to do with this build as its just dragging on and on (rather my my words) so I thought I would continue on with the base.
And I must say, so far, I am super happy with it. It's coming out way better than I had hoped so far! I am almost finished the edging on the top plate as you'll see in a sec and the shape of it is working perfectly. I will need to cast another 2 or 3 plates and some more of the original plating for the bottom and mid tiers, but that won't take too long
So, first up, the top plate as it is now:
The advantages of using resin is you can sand it super thin and then remove excess bits with a sharp knife to create new shapes
And the bottom plate has also had some treatment started to it. There is HEAPS more to do of course
And combined, it starts to take shape. There is a tier to go in between them but not there just yet
Well, that's it now for the next 3 months.... nah, just kidding. It's 7 if you're lucky
Hopefully the next update will come sooner rather than later.
Thanks for any continued interest
Till then!
