Great paint job Nick! Now letīs see some J.B.A water around the island. Atteneded his clinique in Eindhoven last year...great! Unfortunately I already forgot most of it  Huh. Quite a bit to keep up with if you want that finish.

    The thing is , Anders , there is no water involved . My island will be floating in the sky , so maybe I need to learn to how to make clouds !

With all these nice comments your most likely on cloud nine now!!!!  At least you won't need to go far on making them.

Outside of that a really nice job Sir Nick.

  Well , if you do insist in living in the middle of nowhere far from where the real action is , what do you expect ! You could have come along and seen how he does it for yourself .

I would say Marc can justify that by living close to some really cool reference material. In some ways that's better. :-)

G'day Nick,
Coming along very nice.  I really like the shape of the floating island...will make a fairly uniquely styled diorama when all done.  Was it to hang from the roof when finished, or balance on the tip of the island as pictured here?

Cheers,
Dan

Beautiful!  Is there a time-share available?  Would really like to spend some time there before the people arrive.  Wink  -- Dallas

WOW!
Is it heavy?
How are you planning to elevate it? Or do you know Happy Potter?

Your vegetation is really great! Just needs some RR tracks now! Wink

Looking at it again... I love the rocky bottom, but feel that it needs some small random veg in crevasses and definitely some roots from that tree sticking out. Still awesome though. Grass looks great. Jealous that I didn't do this now!

  It's no where near finished yet , so what you have suggested has already been started on , but on the other side of the island . I have put a few roots and grass tufts around the back , but I'm not happy with the grass tufts  so I'll be altering them in due course . There are  shrubs , bushes , trailing ivy , weeds , fallen leaves , decaying wood etc etc all to be planted , but , as you know , these things take time and I want to make sure I plant them in the right order , to save re-doing them later .

   Feel free to build your own island . But I somehow I think that you don't have enough spare time at the moment , with all your other projects ,to do it justice . For me , in addition to having somewhere to display my Remora/Lorelei , it is an excercise to keeping up with the latest scenery methods and getting in some practice in rockwork . 

   I have also been diverted by playing around with my latest purchases which will be used in my next project , which will be even more awesome . Or should that read " aweful" ? That one will be returning to earth and more grounded in reality that this current project .
