Where has Chris been and his new diorama project

Hey all!
Long time no talk, much too long. I figured what better way to get back into it than start something.... Of course the worlds greatest holiday is Halloween...

I am making a hologram diorama for the front window similar to this:

Make a cool hologram illusion!

I will be making it in a window sized box. Background will be a small church and cemetery. Foreground will hopefully be a gallows and coffin. I plan on putting a small cauldron in the back half with water and dry ice to make fog in the cemetery. Not sure how things will work out but we will see! The church and cemetery I got covered but anyone seen a free gallows or guillotine anywhere? I have coffins from ravensblight of course (love that place!)

Updates will be posted here.... Also I FINALLY got my own modelling space where I can leave stuff setup and the kids dont like to go - my work side of the basement so that should help!

So where have I been.... job change (which you might know about) keeping busy as heck building two data centers for my job, one in Chicago and one in ashburn Virginia. Usual financial issues like lots of folks but finally getting caught up there. I couldn't secure funding for selling pre-printed kits and hard to make economically feasible except as a hobby.... still considering it once I can turn around my financial issues. Might need to sell off some of my personal paper kit inventory to make it happen.... project kickstarter, who knows. Banks dont like it though!.

Anyways its good to be back and I hope to be around a good long while
Chris
