Design work continues for NEB's Fun World. The latest concept drawing is the centrepiece of the new entrance area. The oversized birdbath, complete with the bird will introduce our guests to the enchanted garden theme.
Another load gone!
Every piece we build offers a unique challenge in how to move it within the shop and beyond. The masts for the Viking ships for the motion gate park in Dubai proved to fall into this same category. Today, we loaded the masts onto the flatbed truck for the trip to Silver City Galvanizing. The loading went smooth as planned. There's nine or ten more loads to go. Each one is going to be a fun challenge without a doubt!
More paint
The very large features seem to stay relatively the same for quite some time as they go through the painting process. Multiple coats of primer and base colours do not change the look of things for each layer is the same color. But the targets are almost through the base coat stage with some blended colours to start tomorrow and then on Monday the glazes will start where everything seems to change by the minute. The biggest changes will happen in the middle of next week as they begin the dry brushing and final highlights. Then it will be time to stuff it into containers and send on the way to Dubai.
