Jaz Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hi Jaz - a proper start, this time. The reason I pooped into your thread zis moaning - We were walking down one of the side streets in the town inside the walls in Caernarfon, saw this in the handmade chocolate shop window and thought of AVs fairground, so here it is, exclusive to Arboretum Valley. Christmas window handmade chocolate shop Caernarfon.jpg The magic of it was it was all MOVING the carousel some of the people including the skaters on the pond the railbus. I shall have to go back and do a video. Best wishes Polly want one....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) more of Davids work....with my brushes....inc broken ones...which have their uses..... the micro brushes once the foam are torn off are very food good for making little white marking for feathers rmweb3579detailing another painted by David....but photographed on AV 3579 and as we were once again running out of time before he went home i painted his pigeons.....my forefinger for size 3580 and thumb and finger for clarification...these are very small...and you are just painting on grey with very small micro brush (white) then using a damaged white one with no head to literally just dab the extra colours. Pink / green / black / white......we both tried to get our cameras, 2 proper ones and 3 apple 5 in total to get close detail, even his micro lens couldn't cope with stuff THAT small..... 3581 Edited November 20, 2014 by Jaz 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 There will be one last batch of the spalding 2014 pictures. A bunch of odds and ends and a couple of one or two pictures of some layouts that I did not manage to get back to to cover them properly. and some nice ones of detailing by one of the scratch builders. My sister in law, has also kindly sourced me some white bugle beads and extra small white beads to help with the chandelier for Delboy. And there is a small amount of painting detailing to come thru. I'll try and load them up asap. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not! ................... pidgeons 3582 Davids Herring Gull contemplating pidgeon pie yummmmmmm 3577 closer 3578 focusing giving up 3583 ..... Tom Lehrer I sincerely hope ....... ...... Spring is here, a-suh-puh-ring is here.Life is skittles and life is beer.I think the loveliest time of the year is the spring.I do, don't you? 'Course you do.But there's one thing that makes spring complete for me,And makes every Sunday a treat for me. All the world seems in tuneOn a spring afternoon,When we're poisoning pigeons in the park.Every Sunday you'll seeMy sweetheart and me,As we poison the pigeons in the park. When they see us coming, the birdies all try an' hide,But they still go for peanuts when coated with cyanide.The sun's shining bright,Everything seems all right,When we're poisoning pigeons in the park. We've gained notoriety,And caused much anxietyIn the Audubon SocietyWith our games.They call it impietyAnd lack of propriety,And quite a varietyOf unpleasant names.But it's not against any religionTo want to dispose of a pigeon. So if Sunday you're free,Why don't you come with me,And we'll poison the pigeons in the park.And maybe we'll doIn a squirrel* or two,While we're poisoning pigeons in the park. We'll murder them all amid laughter and merriment,Except for the few we take home to experiment.My pulse will be quickenin'With each drop of strych'nineWe feed to a pigeon.(It just takes a smidgin!)To poison a pigeon in the park. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

C&WR Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Ah Julian, you have reminded me. On my iPod (which demonstrates a decidedly dual or even triple personality) is a best of Lehrer. Another favourite, apart from an Irish Ballad is Be Prepared. I won't bore you with the whole song, look it up, but the payoff line is wonderul: So if you are looking for adventure of a new and different kind, And you come across a Girl Scout similarly Inclined Don't be worried, don't be frightened, don't be scared, BE PREPARED!

She asked the old Duke of Wellington's advice about getting shot of them. "Sparrowhawks marm" he replied. dhig Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
