Dirtyhip Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share #4 Posted November 10, 2018 He did this too. Around the pipeline era. Its like a log and an ashtray. It is in bad need of a cleaning with wd40. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a bigger one that is on display at my uncle's house. It is so large you can see the bend of the pipe. These maps were made from the pipeline itself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice work, DH. Thanks for sharing them with us. I'm not very artistic either. My paintings are leaps and bounds apart from beginning till now. It's all practice. Practica e pazienza.

I need a better detail brush. Now you just need to put the pipeline in. It's all the rage around here! How big is the Alaska map you have? The size of your hand, or larger? That's a neat piece.

Zephyr Posted November 13, 2018 Share #29 Posted November 13, 2018 I used to paint watercolour when I was working shift work and had days to myself with Nat working and the kids in school. You make me want to pick it up again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
