"You know, Frederic ****ing Chopin."
« on: September 08, 2007, 05:16:20 AM »
Another piece for my saloon. This piano took about 2 hours to make (not including time waiting for primer to dry.)  I'm also showing a pre-painted photo to give you an idea of how it went together. I made it up as I went along using basswood and sheet styrene (plasticard.)  Still needs a little bit of cleanup here and there.

Excellent, when can we see photos of the whole saloon and interior.  :?:

Nicely done.

Have you considered paying homage to yourself and crafting a Cabinet maker's workshop.

I haven't considered a cabinet-maker's shop- but I am considering building a sawmill. I will actually be buying (eventually) the Arnica wheelright building as the base sructure, then filling it with a detailed interior :) Once I get my sawmill up, a cabinet maker's shop doesn't seem like a bad idea- someone's gonna need to make the coffins :mrgreen:
