Not much progress this week
I did have my 2nd hat/helmet fitting with my nan but forgot pictures again and she has taken it away for some last alterations so I will get pics once it arrives back in a week or two
I'm at a bit of a decision point with the chariot, I like my first moc up, its simple to do (shape wise) and gives the right feel, but I am struggling with materials, the cardboard works great but if it were to be raining it would be a soggy mash in minutes. I debated paper mache but it would have the same problem. Wood would be too heavy. Polycarbonate twin wall (like plastic cardboard with the 2 skins and wiggly insides.....that's a technical term
) is by far the best option but its not cheap, I'd be looking at almost a hundred quid including delivery
so I'm trying to come up with a cheaper option, possibly cardboard, painted up then covered with clear plastic...like a cheap dust sheet or something, any ideas welcome
I also have my cape/cloak, I'll get some pics of that tonight
its about 3 sizes too big but my theory is that I can bundle myself up in it on the chariot if its cold
