Peeps progress to date

[imwalde]

This weekend, I've basically made the setting.

I had to tape together 4 boxes to get the size I wanted. Then I added foam to be the basic shape of rock formations, then paper machéd them.



Then I painted the background, and spray painted the rocks black for a start.


Then here is the rocks having been painted orange, plus the sand added. (I did not think through the idea that my box full of sand might appear to the cats as a giant litter box? I've been storing it up on top of things to play it safe.)



Here is Impeepator Furiosa.


And the finished Citadel.



The only other thing I did this weekend was see Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. I didn't hate it? But it didn't quite gel for me, because Darcy left me cold. I think he was all wrong for the part. But Lily James was quite good, and there were fun scenes, and Mr Bingley was the hot would-be-husband/son of Mila Kunis in Jupiter Ascending. But a PP without a solid Mr Darcy is just never going to be a homerun.

Your Peeps extravaganza is definitely coming together. I can't wait to see the finished product.

Thanks! It mostly looks how I saw it in my head, which is always encouraging.
