Main WIP:
On the Bench: Artesania Latina (aka) Artists in the Latrine 1/75 Bluenose II
I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
Preparing to primer and paint.
Hinged up the roof using the hinges from an old Jewelry box I found laying around .
Roughed in the roof sections wells fargo atm nyc
Made and painted the fuel tanks.The original plan was to use the kit supplied tanks of the Kenworth but they were too large
I found some more plastic in my stash and sheethed the other side.
Cut the Styrene strips and glued them on to simulate the ribbed texture of the Winnie .Quite time consuming and I hope I have enough plastic to cover the other side (multi color due to the advertising plastic I obtained at my old job). broken skull wallpaper
Making a template for the big W!
Lol and the flower -patterned sofas and couches too!

Made a chair but it might be a tad large,what do you guys think?
My best friends mom had a reddish brown stove and refrigerator!it was weird even then!
Ir the lime green shag carpet,lol!
Eugene, you crack me up. Stove's great. So, in keeping with the current theme, will there be orange shag available?
Thanks!I heard the crickets chirping on the forum today!
Outstanding work Eugene!
Made an octagonal table out of .80 Styrene, aluminum tubing and Walnut Veneer.
I distinctly remember the stove at my childhood friends house had a darker green fogged around the edges of the sheet metal .Put in the gas burners and control knobs.
Mixed up the funky green.
I will give it a try!
That would be perfect!
Thanks!do any of you remember the green appliances of the 70s?I think I will paint the stove green with a darker color fogged around the edges.
TcoatWould it possibly be easier to make a sink out of Milliput or something like that and paint it aluminum? Those compound curves in the corners would be fun to form in real aluminum.
Rather late to the party, but I'll pass this along.
On a similar project, I kept my eye out for clear blister packages and inserts of the sort used for ear buds, small hardware packs and similar geegaws. Took a while of looking...but I eventually found one the perfect shape, size and depth for the sink I needed.
Following from that...you could also fairly easy 'squash form' it from a carved balsa or scrap wood form.
Great work, Gene! Love your inventiveness. Your interior is coming along beautifully!
