Seriously running out of time for this, esp as need water effect resin setting time of 2-3 days and board needs transporting in 6 days time...
I still have to;
1. sand down the side and paint black
2. Sand down lumps on board (I had smooth pollyfilla to join cork boards but felt I need to add more to create texture- but now I wish I hadn’t and will need to sand if down before more coats of paint)
3. 2 more coats of paint on the board
4. Severe highlights on board as it’s just too dark as is
5. planks on board and for river/pond crossing to be built, painted, stuck on board
6. Foliage and tufts to be added
7. Final highlights
8. Water effects
9. Review - potentially to add some grass to the board if overall it’s still too dark
I really do need to get to step 4 today and working on the planks this evening to then by end of tomorrow to be onto step 8 with first layer of resin going down.
If that goes to plan, I should be finished late Wednesday/Thursday and ready to load in car on Friday.
