[project update] A&S
Feb. 3rd, 2011 11:29 pmTonight was a very productive evening.
Sugar work is progressing at a good pace. I got the final royal icing under coating done. Once it is completely dry, I will be able to sand it smooth and shape it with clay tools. This is the most important layer. It is the final protective coating for the rice cereal and it provides all of the correct lines. I will probably start adding on the fur and final sugar details on Sunday. I need to remember to get a mask before then. Breathing in sugar dust is unpleasant .
I made some progress on the fire coat as well. Both sleeves have been studded with my fake powder charges. I have probably put 30 or so charges on each arm. It is starting to look cool. I cannot wait to get the whole thing done.
I will post pictures soon.
