Preparing the Way...


Debra from Olde Cape Cod

Painted the section of the house that the wood strips will be fastened to. I used Ceramcoat Hippo Gray for the first coat and was real disapointed with the coverage. For the second coat, I used Craftsmart Grey and was much happier with the finished results. blogentry-3022-0-32069700-1433343682_thu Last night, I saw the Captain out on our back deck watching the sunset. He seemed in a pensive mood. He's eager to start on his journey with theSteampunk Summerhouse but doesn't really want to go alone. I know my mom won't part with the Lovely Marilyn, so maybe I can go over to Miniatures.com and buy her twin sister for the Captain. I could even steampunk her up! LOL! The Steampunk Family has agreed to be his crew on the trip and there has been much preparation going on. Talk about pressure to finish this! Yikes! So as is customary, I will close with a picture of the sunset that the Captain was gazing at. blogentry-3022-0-62835700-1433344103_thu Have to go out and find a paint stick so I can assemble the scissor stairs...have a good day all!

Well, he shouldn't go alone. The Neverwas Haul was always chuckin' block full of people and happenings. So his experience should be as full and rich as they had.

 

I've noticed that the colors vary tremendously for the original. Wondering if it's actually different vehicles or whether the story changed the colors along the way or if it was simply the slow deterioration of it from pristine condition to falling apart as it aged and went on it's journey or what? I know, I think too much.

I was reading about the Haul and I guess it's always a work in progress. He even mentioned that in the beginning, most of the gauges were just for decoration and he's slowly been making them working gauges.  Ooo, and I think there's another woman in the Captain's life.....;) (I'm an over-thinker too...)
