Snake in the Grass

This is a snake that I bought from Acorns by Oaks and painted it to kind of look like a diamond back. Ron made the glass case to keep him safe. I put him hiding in the grass.

The Brass Steampunk is done. I think this could be any kind of a shop and it has large front windows to show off anything that is put into the shop.

Inside is done.

The inside is done, except to set the front door in and that will always be able to come out, as this way and lifting off the roof is how you will get into the shop. It's very easy to get your hand in to put items on the shelves.

The corner stones and one side of the brick are on. We make our own brick and stone, piece by piece and it's put on the building one brick at a time. This has taken a while but it's coming along. Once all the brick is done, I age it and put on all the "old" touches. I really think that this looks more like real birck than anything else.

This photo shows the lights that Ron put in between the wooden shelves. You can change the color on them.

Shelves are in the Steampunk building and the brass is on. I have no wallpaper behind the shelves as I thought it would detract from what would be put on the shelves. I never know what the new owner of the building will use it for.

The floor is done in the Steampunk. We did it all in dark gold and dark red tiles that seemed to take me forever to paint and Deft. I have Ron cut them out of hardwood.

Here are two photos of before going in and after in the shop.
