Wonderful.
 :-* :-*

You should pop that picture from the LPL in here for completeness sake.
It is certainly one of the images from this year that will stay in my mind for a very long time.

Re: Chicken Race on the Arumbaya, barge compartments
« Reply #558 on: April 29, 2014, 06:47:46 PM »
Some time back I went  bananas coming up with different things to load my explorer river barge with. I have based themed nick-nacks on separate bases, reflecting various professions represented among the adventurers in the expedition. Here's the result...




Reptile compartment




Archeology compartment



Aviary compartment



Living compartment, a WIP, obviously.



All compartments loaded onto the barge. A labor of love, really. I could do a hundred of these...

I tried to go for a bit of a chaotic appearance, cages and crates all ahoy and animals and beasts screeching and running about.

Oh man those are cool. I couldn't get a real sense of the details on some of those from the LPL entry.

The snake container is clever and really well done. Love the fetish, looks like the one in The Broken Ear?

Very nice, thanks for posting!

I really hate that film crew and those cages filled with wildlife. Utter rubbish.

Poetic justice.

I am the unwitting instrument of my own downfall... Ah well, at least it wasn't the flappers. That would have been truly embarrassing for my navy lads  ;)

Beautiful work Peder.

The film crew is great, but I really love the "compartments" - the archaeological and aviary ones especially
