Uh-oh, wait 'til Shane sees that Ghost Ship - he'll be after it as replacement for rum rations for his new crew

Roof done, batteries hidden in the water tank for the urinal which powers the lights with no untidy wires!

A couple more people made today,
Theres "Stumpy" Jack and Ted "spade a spade" Smith playing cards in the corner

I'll make it so that ted is cheating with 5 aces in his hand...

Then there is Seth, its a little obvious that I ran out of fimo as he is rather thin. I'll bulk him out with some miliput. He'll be standing leaning at the bar.

I think he's thick enough as-is. Some of those old boozers are pretty skinny.

he could be the local lightweight?

Possibly, They are all painted up but I forgot the pics of those
Its the progress on the carriage thats more exciting...
Did alot of work today.
Its got a coat of varnish so is lovely and shiny and finally received its hinged chimney (for going under bridges)
Theres are steps fitted and I made a hinged pub sign bracket.

(The pipe is for the beer, no brakes on this one)

The sign braket and the sign which I shall sublimation print onto aluminium

You've obviously been very busy (which probably explains why you haven't announced the winner of the photo comp

), it's looking the biz now!

Wow, busy busy busy,
Just a quick up date:

Sound - still need rewireing and re porgramming
Taste - first signs that the beer tap works today horay!
Sight - Looks good, just a few little bits to do on the exterior and the interior, little details such as the mice...
Texture - as above I suppose...
Smell - OK, I may have been beaten on this one but still have some plans afoot...

Posted: **Thu Mar 29, 2012 9:38 am**

If smell is important I'm glad you are not building a cattle wagon

Posted: **Thu Mar 29, 2012 9:39 am**

Or a fish wagon!
