The back of my panels are boxed in with plywood (courtesy of Bamboo Ben) for some protection from the elements, I made a big fleece cover to protect the front. Maybe when we have "The Big One" Sacramento will get closer to SoCal and you can make it to Mojave Oasis! Dusty - good to meet you, thanks to the shirt :) John-O - you didn't ask! Kinny & Dawn - When I do a project, I like to add detail in proportion to the audience viewing distance; there's no need to add a bunch of detail to something that will be viewed from 50 feet away. But I knew on this one SOMEBODY would cross the velvet ropes and check for detail :lol: Thanks for noticing :) Amy - thank you again for the opportunity to be a part of this. Bead & Robert - thanks. Bead, I do most of my gloating right here, safe behind my keyboard on my platterful of pupu thread. It is time for my annual self-imposed hiatus from tiki art from now 'til middle of June - I'll be doing a "Panda-Monium" themed stage set for church. I'm in the process of collecting 300 identical cardboard boxes to make into the Great Wall of China along with some styrofoam art and hopefully a giant steel gong :D
