I know the progress seems slow....and it is. But, please consider just about each piece is hand made, and it takes time. Plus I have to figure out the sequence and engineering at times. But these pictures will give a little better idea of how the office area is going to look. I still need to add the wall lamp fixture, but that won't go in until the walls are painted. I also plan to have a framed painting of a hospital ship hanging above the desk. There are also quite a few pieces that I've made that are not pictured, such as doors and items ot go on the desk. I did turn the four legged chair into a swivel chair and add some padding that I think it would have. This will let you see how I have run the wiring for the alarm light. The strip of balsa along the back wall in the operating theater is just to give and idea of the work area and cabinets that will go back there.







I am planning on the walls to be a cream-white color and the doors to be a soft green color. The floor will be a teal color. These are based on pictures of actual ship board operating room photos I've been studying.

Pleased to see your update Terry, enjoy watching you work.
Encumbered by Idjits, we pressed on

I have been working on this, but it's all in little bits to go inside, chairs, cabinets, doors, operating light, etc., so nothing to really photograph, but I'll see if I can do some kind of picture. Oh, and after seeing where hte desk is  I have decided to reverse the second door into the operating theater - so it will now be up by the door facing the front, and the observation window will be at hte back across from the desk. Other wise the doors into the operating theater wouldn't have ahd room to open properly, since I was  not able to fit a sliding door in.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Pictures soon,

Terry

Finally had a chance to take a picture of some of the little bits I'm working on. To give you an idea of size, the PC screen is only about 3-4 MM big. They look a little crude, but hopefully when it's all put together they look OK. The large white thing is the light that goes over the autopsy table (which is on the left). The PC CPU is not slanted, it's just sitting on some old dried glue as I reuse my painting sticks.



More as it's possible,

I continue to work on the project, but this one is going to require a lot of itty-bitty bits, and not being a post apocalyptic scene I can't hide goofs with destruction!!!l Anyway, got to a point where I could pose Nathan being dissolved by the variant's acid and with this done I can now paint him. I also have to change Ronnie's suit from green to the blue as I found reading several further chapters ahead they all wore blue (I actually read the full series a couple of years ago, but keep reading for the umpteenth time the specific sections that deal with this scene..  However, I may put Nathan in white???? It's hard to see in these pictures, but there are cabinets under he counter top in the operating theater. The counter top is just a paper cut-out for now, but will be a little thicker and about that size. Lucy's right arm (she's the adolescent variant) has been moved so it connects to Nathans hand. I really like accuracy, but I can tell you that I have had to make some literary changes to make hte model work better - just in case any of you read the books and say "Hey, wait a minute", trust me, I already know.








More as things progress,

Terry

PS, the eraser is not part of the model!!! It's just there to hold the two walls up!!!
