wagon prairie

[duhamel]

some time ago, I had thought of making this vehicle, but had handed over this project for lack of motivation until a person whose name I will not ask me to make one.
so this is the thing

[Andym]

Perfect!

What did you make the canopy out of?

[duhamel]

the cover is made with a sheet of magic sculpt spread with a roller one can also do with milliput, it is just necessary to prevent that the product sticks to the support when it is spread

[Silent Invader]

That is delightful

You are very talented

[MaleGriffin]

Brilliant! Superbly one! 

[Malamute]

  love it!

With English not being the original poster's mother tongue, I'll say I believe what was meant was a Prairie Schooner.

Though I do wonder what prairie's are okay for wagons and which are best avoided?   

The canopy looks good but it seems to have seam lines along the top - maybe they will be cleaned up prior to painting.

Very impressive scratch build.

Your wagon needs greasing, your whip is to mend,
So sit down beside me as long as you can.
My wagon is greasy, my whip's in my hand,
So fare thee well darling, no longer to stand.

All you need are some oxen, and that wagon will be ready to ply the Santa Fe Trail.

not English is not my mother tongue, but I think the term prairie wagon is correct. there is no join on the top of the tarpaulin ... it's just pencil strokes

[duhamel]

no big changes today, I just added a few details, the drawbar, the tool box at the front, a little bit of filling will still have to be sanded, a small chest of drawers as a luggage which will undoubtedly be abandoned on the track at the first difficult passage

[rebelyell2006]

That's just a canvas paulin.  A tarpaulin is a canvas that was tarred, or covered with a waterproof black paint.  It looks great so far.

[Malamute]

Just keeps getting  better all the time.

[Elbows]

Superb skill here, excellent.
