Work day! Let's see if we can get some folks jacked up on coffee and sell some muffins!

 

[NY_Caveman]

I just had a double espresso and would love a muffin!

 

[Katrina71]

Oh, I actually did accomplish this yesterday.

 

[Katrina71]

That's just primer, but...getting there.

The work is incredible. The details all reinforce each other. You are quite an artist.

No, I just nail/glue it together like Legos.

Nice work, practicing for the stand? Speaking of which how goes the tank/stand

The Eurobracing got done and the tank may ship soon! The stand is in the works. Wanted to get some other trimming done before I decided on a couple of details on the stand.

I'm seriously not rushing any detail of the Miracle. It's going to be a dream tank!

 

[Katrina71]

Playing around with scale of fluted moulding and bullseye's. I try to look at it for a while and tweak it. Now I have all of the living room trim up, I can see what looks best together.

 

[Katrina71]

Inspiration stand. Look at the rosette placement. Canopy and stand. Too busy? I'm going to clean some lines up too. No rope moulding.

I like what you did with the window, clean and not over the top.

 

[Katrina71]

I was thinking bullseyes on the stand to cap the fluted moulding. I like the canopy a little cleaner. What do y'all think?

 

[Katrina71]

This is right beside of where the tank will go.

 

[Katrina71]

Dentil on the canopy and bullseye's on the stand?

 

[Katrina71]

It will tie in the mantle with dentil.

I hope you don’t mind me trying to reveal some of the shadows. I do not think this is too much if done right.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Your two living room jobs are at least as good as that stand. Better by my eye.

Ok then. I have no idea how you did that! I can go heavy on the detail. I'll use quarter round to give it smooth corners .
