Captain Kraken

[chriswil42]

I got sent to ask for a 'Left-Handed Screwdriver' and a 'Right Handed Mug' when I first started work.
Guess, I was the 'Mug' then.

Now, I have progressed and I am looking for that elusive can of 'Tartan Paint'.....hohohoho.       

See Howard.

Decided the bottom part of the base needs to be a little smaller (this one will be donated to "Samurai Sam - well thats his name at the moment) and the plinth part needs about 20 mm removing to make it shorter. The top of the plinth has been cut so that it is the same angle as the bottom of the figure and both have been drilled and a brass rod inserted.
Is it time for coffeeeee or rum - ohhhhh no its chauffer job all afternoon

You'll get there in the end Martin. A fair bit of work.

Work done on Captain Kraken done during Playday 25 -  now should I do him with or without the hat

[MSea]

Front and back photo taken of the model and then put onto a printable page -  before printing changed to grey scale and toned it out. 
Now what use is that I hear some of you say - will put colour onto the coat and hat on the photo to help decide what to use, easier than getting half way through painting it red and then change my mind to purple - well thats the plan at the moment.

[chriswil42]

Good plan.

Hats off to you!

Decided that Captain Kraken needed the "Pillars of Hercules" on his base, so dug out the 2 small bottles of rum to form them.
History lesson the pillars are at the exit from the med and warn sailors not to go any further, as nothing exists beyond the pillars.  Also another history lesson - if we have any clowns in the club who decide to drain the 2 pillars, they only contain black water BUT could have a couple of drops of fenal thalene in them - if they do and you drink them make sure you have lots and lots of toilet rolls available yoho yoho yoho

[zak]

Could that even be phenolphthalein?

A well know indicator for titrations in the Chemistry World, I somehow wonder if it has laxative effects?

However you spell it - ask me about it next meeting and how it caused some problems with the engineering section yoho yoho poooopooooppooooo

In my youth I heard a story about someone who didn't carry water into the mine but would drink from another person's so that person put some hydraulic fluid in their 'dudley'. You get the same effect but you're down a mine with no toilet!!!
