I say Mostly because my personal belief is that any project undertaken is never finish. There is always room for improvement.
Now I have two types of cider. One batch that didn't ferment all that
well and another that is really bubbling. The first batch I should
have made a yeast starter at a temperature of 105F and let it sit for
a few hours. Instead I used a significantly lower temperature and only
let the starter go for one hour. My second 1 gallon batch of apple
cider received the appropriate yeast starting temp/time and is
bubbling away. I also used a different brand of cider this powerful
bubbler is "Tree Top". I'm drinking the first batch now after nearly a
week and it is tasty with very little alcohol. The second batch will
be bottled and shelved until March.
Was in the shop all day with Bala!
Decided to stick with 'tradition' and use a Diane sculpt on an original Diane body.
I couldn't believe the amount of paint that came off her face when he sprayed her with the air gun --- it spread like chunky snow.
Did have fun converting a T1 Louise to a Yasmin sculpt (with a P5 arm and hand to complete the pose - works beautifully!)
Also did Louise from Seduction, two Felix's, two more Body Boys, Eimi, two Alessandra's, a standing Diane and RF3/helga to a Roxanna custom sculpt
Progress is slow in these dark winter days, but I also have many other things going. Should be finished in a couple of days though.
Three sheets of 4mm ply installed in the ceiling & wiring for the strip lights installed.
Wall panels are 7mm ply - first wall panel installed - lots of more of those to go!
Bronze sculpture by Yang Ying-Feng commissioned by Lien Ying Chow on 8.8.1988 at Battery Road. Raffles Place.
work in progress. I didn't catch the early stages (was too lazy to get my camera out of the horse trailer) His ears are not even because frostbite took the tip of his right ear. Advice is always welcome!
My little sketchbook is about those monsters we all face and how we react to them. I know I'm not the only one who benefits from fur therapy! The grey cat is in honor of a few flickr buddies! Still have a goal of completing the book this weekend.
The introduction to the book which shows a picture of prehistoric life contrasted with modern life and it's great radio masts with an early man who has a "brutish" appearance shows the early optimism and belief in progress which was current after the Great War to End All Wars and before the coming of the depression.
Does not have casing or drawstring. Need to verify proportions. I may shorten the jacket and move pocket up
I have now burnt the top layer of chiffon by using a heat gun. I then teased the fibre through the stitching by using a teasle brush ( shown at the top of the picture).
This now completes the preparation of the background fabric for the handbag.
When I got out my camera to shoot Maisie by the window, Sergei jumped up beside her. (He loves the camera, though he's so wiggly that I rarely get a good shot of him). Remarkably, she didn't move, or hiss, or make that funny low pitched "I'm not happy about this" yowl. So here they are, right next to each other, and she looks completely relaxed. Progress.
She and Sasha are going to take longer to work things out.
