Update - Lest We Forget

It's getting closer.. now the big decision is to focus on the soldier's body or continue the background down the left hand side. Decisions decisions. If only that was the most important decision I have to make each day lol.



I didn't get to spend much time on it this weekend. I took Zak to Wet and Wild (its an awesome water park on the Gold Coast, here in Queensland) with one of his mates yesterday. They kept going like two little energizer bunnies all day lol.

The two hits of the day had to be the Flowrider (a man made wave thingy) and the Skycoaster (a huge big swing thing). Here he is surfing the flowrider.. closely followed by one of many stacks!


And here is the view looking up to where they fall from on the Skycoaster - I'm not joking when I say it was high! I got a bit of video and uploaded it to Facebook - but I can't seem to load video on here. You'll have to take my word for it. Then a mid air shot of them - they would have kept going again and again but it was an extra cost so one go was all they had.




Today I had to catch up on my normal weekend jobs.. washing, cleaning, grocery shopping.. etc etc.. boring - like I said in my last post - groundhog day.

Going to go back to the couch now and decide which to do.. the body or the background..

ARGH! That looks so scary! Brave little men! lol.
Aw, poor Zak for stacking it on the Flowrider.
I still haven't been to Wet 'n' Wild, doesn't really appeal to me. I like Sea World the best.

Great progress on Lest We Forget. I'd say that whatever part you are dreading most, you should do now, get it over and done with so it will keep you motivated to get it finished and move onto the more fun parts, if there is a fun part of yellow and Browny green lol! :)

I'm terrified just looking at the view up, let alone to come down from it!!!!
SCARY!
Glad they had such a great time though and the water rides look fun.

Your WIP looks fantastic! Why not work on both parts? Do one thread length on the background and then one on the soldier.
