Rockhound/Gold Prospecting Diorama Scene (Step 3 Finished & 4)
The water has a yellowish tint to it (the pic looks better then in real life lol)...not clear like i wanted it to be (maybe someone peed in the river ![]() ![]() This is what i used http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com...em/C1206/page/1 ...have to heat the pellets on the stove...it's a mess and has that yellowish tint to it......i should of got this http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics.com/show/item/C1211 but it drys slow and makeing the ripples would be harder. |

Yes Denise i know......like i have said in a past post....my cell phone doesn't take very good pics up close..that's why i use the scanner when i can. Group #9 Projects 33-37 (After) ![]() The Cross (Honey Onyx) The rest i believe might be Rhodonight or Rhodolite?? the oval one could be either that or Rose Quartz (that's why i post on here in hopes to have someone help me I.D. them but i did that in the last Spears Rock Shop thread hopeing to have someone chime in but no one never did ![]() The Cross was harder then i thought because on the bottom of the two arms won't reach the wheels very well...need bigger dia. wheels (like what the Genie has...lol)...but i got it to look ok i guess for what i have. ![]() Nice job Scott, you did especially well on the heart and cross! ![]() -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

Rockhound/Gold Prospecting Diorama Scene (Step 4 Complete)
Put on a 2nd layer and added some blue food coloring (grandma's idea at 1st..wasn't going to do it because i didn't know if it would mix and what it would look like in color and such but i said hec with it and did it anyways..it kinda turned greenish but is much better then the yellowish color under it)...it turned out really life-like with the riffles. ![]() ![]() The water in the background is kinda blueish-greenish too so i think they match up really well.....after grandma looked at it she said "This looks 3D" and it does...makes the scene really pop out i think. ![]() |

Group #10 Projects 38-43 "Honey Bees" (Honey Onyx Cabs) Cut and Dopped
Dopped and ready to go.....As you can see i put the dop on the mark side...i might start to get in the habbit of doing this because if i do it opposite then the shape of the cab seems to turn into a different shape (like more of a egg shape......instead of oval) and thats because the mark is gone once i start the dome part so i have no guide to shape but the mark on the bottom doesn't go away until it's done and off the dop to do a quick polish on the bottom. ![]() |

Rockhound/Gold Prospecting Diorama Scene (Complete) The Blueish-Greenish tint that the river had seemed to disappear and didn't last...darn it ![]() But it's done and that's a relief...someday i might try and find or build a clear plastic hood to keep dust off of it. ![]() Awesome job ScottKS....Well done!!! ![]() -------------------- The impersonal hand of government can never replace the helping hand of a neighbor. -Hubert H.

Looks cool Scott, you did a good job!
![]() Your right about the shape coming out more accurate with following the mark on the inside. When we dop thats the way we do it. Keep up the good work! ![]() -------------------- Education is the key to the future,

Mom's Dolphin and Anchors Project
A New Spin from the same designs i made for the show (Lace Skirts and Cascade Of Hoops)...New technique useing color jumprings...these jumprings aren't the best in color quality some are lighter in color then others and that's why i went from darkest to lightest on the pendant and also when i put these in the sonic cleaner it also lighten them all. I had this project done a week ago but couldn't post it until i gave it to mom...i think she likes it...i told her when she saw it that them earrings maybe too long and she said that's the style right now so i guess i did ok. ![]() |
