Tomorrow, our painting crew will polish off the last few details of the signs and features which will soon be bound for Vala’s Pumpkin Patch in Nebraska. The dragon looks very colourful and spiffy. I can hardly wait to see ‘Celeste’ installed in the Storybook Land with the rest of the features.
Another full day of sculpting
A five-person crew tackled the back side of Bubbles today, adding a second layer of sculpting epoxy and carving in the details. There are more than two hundred pounds of sculpting epoxy in this piece - a whole lot to mix and then place on the armature. The effort is considerable, especially in the warm temperatures we’ve been enjoying this week. One more day of sculpting should ready this fun sign for paint. Stay tuned…
Almost complete
The painting crew is down to the fine details as we finish the last items for Vala’s Pumpkin Patch in Gretna, Nebraska. The fun dimensional sign for Tim’s Runaway Grain Train is complete save for the lettering blends and glazes which will be applied tomorrow. Stay tuned to get a peek at the finished sign…
