Syl's Miniatures

 

Table time!!

One of the "legs" broke during removalfrom the laserprint.
You can't see it, as it was close to the top.
I always keep non-used rests of wood aside.
It's easy to cut a small piece
and glue it to the back of a broken piece.
Pieces of icesticks and matches are fine too.

I found in the box: wire to turn candles.
The end result was: nothing.
The wannabee candle was not only too heavy,
it also didn't take to the glue.
So I cut a match in small pieces,
painted them
and this is the final result!

The meat is ready...
I was supposed to make knives from foil.
But: after breaking both ankles
and complex surgery on one,
the pain was bothering me too much.
So: no knives...
Maybe later!

I'm happy with the 1:24 glasses.
Maybe I have to pay more attention to these prefab items,
especially as they can be ordered 

at those cheap international shops.

I have decided not to paint the chairs.
Too much white is not nice to look at.
And I can always make pillows on them.

.

This table needs a bit more attention,
as the legs need a bit of added colour.

The lamp couldn't be assembled.
Stability was found by adding beads to the bottom,
so the wire could be attached to the wood.
As the wire was turned when found in the box,
it was impossible to get it as straight as I wanted it to be.
Maybe the manufacturer can put larger straight pieces in the box,
or fold it at the length of the box.
(Good idea for the lights too.)
