Mary and I had a peaceful Monday at the studio. Mary worked on her paintings and I made up a V-2 Rocket kit order. I forgot to glaze the eyes and mouth on the Salt Vampire so I did that and packed it up to ship.
I also made a repair to my Canterbury J Class sailboat. I found that the screw for the rudder was backing out slowly that could have resulted in my losing rudder control. Glad I found it before that happened.
I then did a little work on the J-3 Cub and got some more covering on her.
Got home and tested the other sailboat in the hot tub and found no leaks. Nice and dry boat. I plan to take the first voyage with her Friday. It will be nice to have both boats tested.
Lastly I worked to about 8pm on the film doing VFX work in After Effects and got some amazing results! I made the first composite of the characters Mark and Adolf in the opening scene in “The Dreamtime”. I have been waiting a couple of weeks now to do this as I had other footage to edit and comp first. In editing I work from the beginning to the end in a linear fashion. The effect I got with the green screen footage was beyond my expectations bringing an end to a perfect day.
