The crew finished the sculpting on five of the mechanical bugs today. They look fabulous! With the structural steel now all hidden the bugs really look like they are straining to hold up the giant wooden globe. Now we are full blast into paint. By the end of next week we should be ready to ship these pieces to the PNE. We can hardly wait!
Robot fun!
The crew had fun today working on the details of the mechanical bugs.They are down to the feet of the bugs holding up the giant globe and the other two bugs are also looking very cool. One more day should polish off this stage and the base coats of paint are almost on the tree as well. It won't be long until we are ready to ship them off to their permanent home.
Quick colour!
The base colours are now done on the Sign Invitational entry with the first glazes just begun. The little sculpture suddenly leaps to life as we work. Work is progressing rapidly and in a couple of days this piece will be ready to ship. That's a good thing for the International Sign Association EXPO is now only three weeks away!
