Park Set Construction (Part Two)

I started by attaching a sheet of wire mesh (using a staple-gun) to the MDF I had previously cut. 


I used thin wire to fasten the flowers on to the mesh, then strengthened with epoxy glue.


I moulded coloured plasticine into cobbled, Celtic shapes to cover the mesh.


The plasticine gives an extra detail to the ground and also supports the flowers.


I arranged random tiles to break up the floor,


 I intend to fade out the lilac coloured plasticine to purple then blue, giving it more depth.


I bought some textured green paper which I stuck (using spray glue) on to the area around the park.


The Park Set so far....

Animation Tests - Food Preparation

I did some tests of Dozel in the kitchen, preparing the food ready for the picnic.
Unfortunately the lighting is flickering, at first I assumed it was the actual lights. After changing them it still occurred and I have since found it to be a fault with the camera.
