As you can see from the below photos, we've almost finished the construction part of the build. There's a great deal of sanding and smoothing to do, but it's all coming together. Now we're looking at finishes; MDF being hard to get a good sharp finish on, we're experimenting with polishes, wood stains, and primers. Currently we;re leaning towards a sealer, a primer and a silver (probably car paint) colour for the teeth and black with red details/yellow and black danger chevrons. |

I love it!
ReplyDeleteYou are quite the carpenter.
Thanks very much :) To be honest we're much better at metal working, and we're currently talking to a few historical reenactment groups about pieces.
