The hitching post will be made from a walnut dowel and licorice sticks.The sticks can be picked up at your local spice store and come in various lengths and diameters.

Lightbulb
I think that I will now finish off this little horse-tub area .
All the major components of the diorama are now build and just need a little finishing.The lighting is 95% done and just needs to be hooked up.
There is still quite a bit of work to be done on the landscaping around the hangar but this is usually fun to do.
Oh! I almost forgot the guys on "tea time" have yet to be positioned and painted.The end of February and I think that I am just about on schedule .
This is an exciting time to finally see it all coming together.
Not a lot of creative stuff left to do so......
Now my mind is starting to wander to the backyard flier project ,which I am really looking forward to as the storyline leaves me lots of room to be creative.How would I have designed my flier ,in my backyard, had I had been a young man back then?
