      Looking good Neil, but when I saw the teeth I wondered if SWMBO had become a dentist after giving up the art teaching!

        You could leave the flash on Neil, it would look like rotting flesh. Because with the short arms the T-Rex wasn't able to brush his teeth.

                    Well, 'the best laid plans of mice and men gang oft awry' as the saying goes!
                    On Wednesday evening I was informed that Saturday wasn't happening and we were in fact seeing Clara Thursday evening!
                    Luckily my whole working life has involved changing deadlines and rush jobs so I just swung into work mode, dumped the idea of the acrylics and dug out all my spray cans (which at least solved the problem of what colour...) and piled into the garage!
                    I must have had an angel on my shoulder, as we know how much I LOVE painting, but it was done in an hour.
                    So there are no in-progress shots, I'm afraid, but Rex was duly delivered on time, albeit with teeth still gluing, to the birthday girl.
                    And I didn't know this, but she has very set ideas on T-Rex colour schemes, and incredibly I got it just right. Phew!

                    Cheers

                      That’s really great. It’s only when you see it next to her that the size impression kicks in! It’s huge! Great save on the rescheduling as well. Obviously this was a great fun project, and your enthusiasm shines through every word.

                          Outstanding Neil and impressive to think you pulled it off so quickly.

                          A great effort indeed.

                          Well done.

                          Andrew
