Eric, nice to hear from you. The glass bottle is a white metal casting that I blackened, painted white and covered with shellac varnish to get the transparant, but still yellish layer. The black cap was done with a felt pen. Sharpie as you know them.
The rope handles are made of sewing yarn gleud in two small drilled holes with superglue. The moment I put the rope in the holes, I bended the yarn so it positioned towards the Side of the box. The cured glue kept it that way.
When I gleud the shelves to the sides, I bended them to give the impression that there is a lot of weight on them.
More great detailing here. I installed the stairway to heaven.... no to the platform. ( Zep was playing... ) I installed a handrail, for the elderly.... The posts were represented as big logs hand hewn. just look at the photos, the say more than I can say... It is such fun to compile these little scenes, played all night with the details just to do the stair scene.. Final weathering and finishing later.
Robert, Inquiring minds would like to know, how did you achieve the hand hewn look of the support posts? The texture and coloring look great. Thanks, Dave S. Tucson, AZ
I continue with detailing the interior of the sawmill. Here are the Maintenance and Storage Rooms. I decided to instal the desk not in the main working area but in a separate space. I also toyed with the placement of the "furniture"...
Final weathering, that is, 'chalking' everything together is for later. It is still too clean. No dust yet..
No wonder this client keeps calling for his shipment, his work order lies underneath the desk. Damn...Sue Ellen...

Superb in all respects Robert.
Yes I know Ken, I am a lousy photographer...
