Real Time: I am now in real time. As in you won't see a new post for at least one week because it is currently today. Unless you are reading this post later, than never mind.
Since it is summertime, I have been spending time with my family so didn't work too much on the board this week. Not complaining, just stating a fact! My goal is to finish by the first week of August, so I think I am still doing ok. I added more balsa wood framework to 3 more buildings as well as the thatched roof to all three. I even changed the base paint for some of the buildings so that they would standout a bit more from each other. So the two major building colors will be brown and khaki. I know, wild and crazy!
More balsa wood: I also began adding more balsa wood framework to the next section of buildings. The major problem was that my local craft store ran out of balsa wood, so I only have 5 pieces left and 5 buildings to use them on! I may have to make a stop to Manchester to find some more. With only two weeks until my goal date, this could slow me down.
In the upper sections of my board the houses got a bit more glamorous with their dormers and larger footprints. Unfortunately this required more balsa wood.
Anyway, it was time to go camping for a few days so I took a picture of the board so far. Almost 4 buildings completely painted out of 12! 1/3rd of the way there isn't too shabby.
Finally, my action shot:
Dude! Looking great!
