Great pictures

Sir Walter De La Mer must be K&Cs best mounted knigt. The closeup really brings out the detail.

That one is very nice also. The "quilted" blanket on the horse is quite exceptional. Perhaps one of K&C best.

Also, the painting has a great finish - yellow next to red is difficult as the red tends to bleed if not thoroughly dry.

My ground mix came out fine, thanks...I am not sure what the percentages were though, or if I can reproduce it...and by using the coffee grinder all my mulch smells like french roast...I must have one of the nicest smelling dioramas on the block. The coffee grinder was a good idea; I was glad to have a spare lying around. I need to send you some close up pics of the dirt road work we talked about...looks excellent and is very durable...I'll send you a bucket of dirt.

Thanks Nicholas..thanks Scott...

Nicholas...

no...that's the dirt and mulch in the coffee grinder from my flower bed that we talked about...

I'm curious...how did your attempt at a ground mix of mulch come out...

I do add about 50% of that rich black dirt to mine and pick the smallest of the broken mulch to start with in the grinder...

I would like to see if if you could send a small envelope of it...

 

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

I'll see if I can get that sorted out later today. I might as well send you a sample of the finished product with it.
