In the last couple of lessons there has been a lot of progress on our resort. After the paint on the mountain dried we dabbed grey and green paint over parts of it with a sponge, mostly around the sides and the waterfall. We didn't have any white paint left after the grey so the green is very bright but it doesn't matter too much.
In the last lesson Shae covered the ground at the base of the mountain with fake dirt using glue while I made some final improvements to the design of the cabins. I glued four small wooden sticks that were about 1cm wide, 2cm tall and about 1mm thick around the lower storey. There is one in each corner next to the wall, and two in the corner of the window walls. These were put there to support the roof and to make the cabins more detailed. I only completed three of the four cabins in this lesson, but they didn't take very long to do so I should complete them fairly easily. I haven't taken any photos of this yet but I will hopefully upload some tomorrow.
In today's lesson we glued on the trees at the base of the mountain, made the water wheel, and made the water. We made the water at the base of the waterfall lighter than that at the top so that it would look more natural and hopefully flow better. To make the waterfall we poured the glue at the top of the mountain and let it flow down into the lake below so that it would follow the path that water would naturally take, making it look more real. Photos of this will also be uploaded along with the cabins.
We have almost finished our resort and will make the last few changes in our last lesson tomorrow. All we need to do is make some slight changes to one of the cabins, finish gluing on the trees and attached the water wheel and cabins to the mountain. This shouldn't take too long to do, and if we need to we can finish it in lunch.
