The first two interior paintings in the hedgehog feeding station.
-
The baffles are almost painted. Tomorrow i put the art on the walls then it's time to assemble and pour the floor!
Marine hinges and hasps for the roof flaps, I've seen the state store bought hedgehog boxes get into and we're bypassing that thank you very much!
If this damn thing is going to last 15 years it won't be let down by a bloody hinge.
Silicone and fibreglass sheet to cover the flaps too, and hdpe blocks to keep it well off the ground -

What I've turned this into is a fairly close approximation of how I'd go about it (just with a higher ceiling in the main chamber. For class, like. Love a high ceiling)

It sounds like in about 200 years they're going to make it a listed property.

Honestly at this point I'm looking forward to getting my studio back. It's had a giant dust sheet and cardboard laid out on it got 2 weeks covered in wood at various stages of painting.
I like to start a project, do the project to completion, and then rest. A project like redecorating these would ordinarily be 2 days. I do not have the patience for all this waiting for things to dry stuff (and with 6+ layers to put on its a lot of waiting)

@cazabon the way it's looking, it's possible it'll still be around!

I got the epoxy layer on the floor of the nesting box this morning so that's as good as finished now.
The last of the tiny paintings get done in the baffles tomorrow, I just need the coats on them atm to thoroughly dry.
I need a few more dry flowers for the floor then I can assemble it all and get it poured. Nearly there! Couple of days left at most -

@m3t00 The floor flowers are real pressed flowers rather than painted, I can't take credit

A portrait of Egg, a vase of flowers, a horse because paintings of horses are always fancy and high class, and the hedgehogs' very own original kandinsky

This is such a delightful idea, and I've been truly enjoying following along with your current project.
