David Todd Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 Not a very well focused photo. Freebs, as there were two spray cans shewn in a previous photo,would have thought Loftysr, would spray,but,you never know with him,he is ever so good. One is gloss green,other is Matt green. The bridge was made and given to me by the surveyor who was on the real bridge install last year. He has a 3D printer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runs as required Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 That is one outstanding cliff face, beautifully observed - I always knew it would be brilliant. You've got till the end of the two year 'Transition Period' to put it on open exhibition as a Visitor Attraction. dh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Todd Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Another couple of hours,last Wednesday night. Lofty,continued adding vegetation,, slow progress,maybe, but with the amount of glue and hairspray, being used, oversaturating with both cannot be tolerated. Thank you for your comments,since the last posting. If we don't miss any Wednesday s,, it may well be completed in 6 weeks. Will be attending Folkestone Mrc Exhibtion tomorrow,around 1100 hours. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempfix Rich Papper Posted October 19, 2017 Tempfix Share Posted October 19, 2017 Looking spectacular as always. Thanks especially for sharing the top picture with the full arsenal of greenery to hand. May I ask what make / blend of scatters you use on the horsehair?
