The A-6 Intruder has been on my wish list for a few years now, but somehow I kept getting side-tracked by other projects, such as the movie vehicles and retrofitting all my aircraft with non-LEGO canopies. Rebuilding my Tomcats in the last couple of weeks rekindled my interest, however, and yesterday I finally started building. Most of the model will be the same as my existing Prowler model, so I started with the biggest part that differs.
The Intruder in question will have markings to match my other jets from Carrier Wing 8 as they appeared during their 1977/1978 deployment aboard USS Nimitz. For the intruder this means it'll have the markings of VA-35 Black Panthers.
I was given a sheet of magazine scraps which had been applied to a background in a haphazard manner and was asked to use this as a source of inspiration!
I find this sort of challenge VERY difficult as I usually work to an idea, not an image.
After a mild panic I decided to gesso the whole page in an attempt to tone down the images and then I used it to create a folder which I then die cut and embossed.
I then grabbed the scrap bag and started to machine embroider images which started to leap from the page.
This is one sample.
One of my favourite flowers. The bright overcast light, wide aperture and ultra long focal length all contribute to the slightly painterly look.

The third update for my Lego show exhibit! The show's just over two weeks away now, and I haven't posted an update for over a week I think, so here you go.
As you can see, I've completed the bulk of the landscape, I just need to finish the grass area at the back and the add the cliff for the base of the castle. After that I'll build the castle, the tower, and complete the three cottages. And then of course I'll add the leftover foliage and other details :)
As always, C&C is most appreciated :)
work in progress. Insallation. Planning to make HEAPS of these botanical paper forms. The are dipped in wax and are attached to wire.
Working my way down the doorway. The detail I have found, after consulting a 30-40 year old photograph in a book, has weathered badly. I might be able to reconstruct some if this detail but don't want to over do it.

We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing. Action always generates inspiration. Inspiration seldom generates action.
