Dogstar Screens Again

Fortunately Channel 9 here in Australia have decided to re-screen Dogstar (we did animation on 9 of the 26 episodes) every Saturday at 8.10am. The previous run was interrupted by the cricket and I'm not even sure they completed screening the series. But now that it's back on, worry ye not!

Progressional Models

I'm in the process of making little models of three of the main characters from Frankenchicken. I had relatively good success with FC himself, so I thought I'd try with the others too. I modelled them first in plasticine, very roughly, to check the chapes and masses before doing the base in polystyrene and wire, on which I'll put the modelling clay on.

Sorry, I had to hold this one up cos his plasticine legs are inadequate to the task.

This could possibly be at Camden market, but since I wasn't there, I can't be sure.

What better way to celebrate Ann's first time back to her birthplace after 17 years than with a lovely fry-up for breakfast?

The road the place we were staying at in West Kensington was on. Yes, I'm sure the residents are eternally amused by someone removing the bar from the "g" in Gunterstone. Hilarious!

In the Fragonard perfumery. These are the large filters they use to remove impurities from the perfume blends.

This should be familiar to those who've seen Perfume! Fragonard no longer use this technique.

Where the "nose" works. Alas, Fragonard's nose had just retired, so there's a job opening.
