After a day with no building at all (I had to attend a wedding yesterday for the entire day), and a very slow morning today. I spent an hour in the afternoon and 1,5 more hours in the evening completing step 5 of the Magic Harp.
I needed to build the turning front column and the decorative pieces on top of the harp. Most of the things went easy, some were a little bit tougher. I broke 1 piece from one of the flowers when adding the petals, but luckily it could be fixed with a drop of glue.
Now that more color is added, I think it is looking rather similar to the AI picture, so mission accomplished.
Tomorrow I will complete the final step, but I just tested it again and all works like a charm.
I posted a little video in my story on IG, I will add it there in a post as well when the kit is finished.
Thank you so much @Nita_Davis I guess it really helped I took my time with this one. Every choice I made was better thought through. And I’m very glad with how it is turning out
That is just the color of the wood that is looking that way because of the blueish accents. I only used different blue markers and a white one. No other colors
They had a tent in a huge grass field, so the setting was really romantic. Unfortunately the weather was not that good, so we had a few moments of very heavy rain. But the company was good, the ceremony was really nice, the food was great and we danced until 2h am. So it was a good day.
Oh wow! I feel silly. BUT, being a house painter, I know how color can play tricks on the eyes. One day, I was painting grey over a light blue green and it was looking PINK!
It’s not silly at all. It could as well have been a peach colored marker. Colors can indeed play tricks with our eyes. And the light that is on at well isn’t helping either with the colors in the picture.
@Minus_88 this update has so much creative energy. The details around Magic Harp - step 5 make it fun to follow along, and I like how you are letting the build develop in your own style.
