They cast the big bloke today in bronze. We saw the first pour, which was a handful of legs & arms. They cast well & some bits chipped out of the moulds showed they were good. His torso & head were to be cast later in the day but i had to split. Went home & had for lunch leftovers, which were pastry versions of a star wars stormtrooper helmet & munch's "the scream" while watching Alien. Funny i don't remember those gross bits from when i saw it last i guess i had my eyes shut at the time.
Then took maquettes of the next one to a meeting so they could choose. With some mods one of em got thru. I got bugger all time for this next one, have managed to squeeze a couple of weeks outta the foundry & so i got 4 weeks rather than 2. But then if the last one took 6 weeks then this one being "only" life sized will be easy. LOL.
Have collected an Aldi volin off my mate who acqured it for me. Awesome I want to learn the fiddle. First problem... tune it?
