Worklog Time!
Sorry about larger filesizes in this particular update.
Well, the clamps did their job poorly. Well, in truth, I messed up the bondo again-I never mixed the hardener all the way through and a part came out soft. But, I managed to fix that with some epoxy putty, which you can see here.
Because the Mixture’s heavy, I also had an issue with the stuff on the back if the computer not holding it’s shape, so it sanded into a complete mess. But I cleaned it up, applied another layer to fill in the gaps, and it went on nice and smooth.
It sanded down quite evenly as well, to give me this.
from the back....
Which means that the top part is pretty much finished! It looks a little bit like this.
Now onto the front. I cut the pieces out of some card, so I can play around with a layout that I like. Then, I get to work with the pencil and mark out the places that I want to cut, making sure to leave plenty of space for the mesh and such. When I finally get a layout planned, I’ll add it to my render, before I do any messing around to make sure that I’m going to like the way it comes out. I’ll post that soon enough, but I’ll leave you with this pic just now.
I also wanted to say thanks to the 2,955 people who have hit this Worklog: I know work is slow, but I’ll make it in the end. Comments are always welcome, hope you check back later too!
