Just a brief update without many progress photos since I've been so busy lately: I've just finished two big assignments for school and can now devote most of my time to getting the diorama done. That's pretty important since, you know, the exhibit is opening in less than 48 hours.
Yup. It's coming down to the wire.
Am I nervous? Yes. Am I worried about getting everything done on time? You bet. Would I rather be doing something else? Not a chance! I'm really excited for the opening and look forward to hear what everyone thinks of the diorama. I'm quite proud of the work I've put into it so far.
But now it's time to stock up on coffee and buckle down....things are going to get a little crazy here.
My girlfriend has been very helpful during my paper-writing craze these last few days. Being the wonderful person that she is, Teresa volunteered to paint the train tracks for me while I was agonizing over early 20th century bank architecture. They turned out quite well indeed!

Making tracks!
The minimum goal for the next day or so is to finally finish that %#&^@*$ firing line, an ambulance, and both train cars. Even if I can't get the remaining figures done by opening night, with those in the diorama I feel that we'll have something solid at least.
And just in case you're all wondering....
And just in case you're all wondering....
I'll try to get another update in before the opening, but I can't make any guarantees at this point.
Been loving following the progress on this job! It is turning into quite the evocative piece. Well done to Theresa on the tracks, and Zach, why are you reading blog comments at a time like this? Paint, man, paint! :)
