😂 Your son bringing home cardboard from school is so relatable. My daughter told her pre-K teachers “mommy and daddy are garbage people.” My husband actually is a sanitation worker, so with a little more explanation in Kindergarten we graduated to “daddy is a garbage man and mommy just likes garbage”. 😂 The figurehead looks amazing!!!

It’s kind of cool to think that since the workspace is so close to the captain’s bedroom that maybe when she can’t sleep (or maybe doesn’t sleep) she goes out there to “clear her mind” with crafts like ship replica building and restoring the old ship pieces. Might need to add a coffee cup for her late night energy to work on those projects. Haha!

Sitting at my work table, while watching the Captain's workbench build, I so wanted to say 'she needs light!'. Of course, assuming you were past the point of adding anything in that area, you wouldn't hear it from me. Needless to say, I was so happy to see the lights added for her century old eyes. Thanks Ara (that is from the Captain).

I’m tickled you noticed all the details on my part of the creation, the sword and scabbard. I’m not exactly prolific maker, more an ideas person. But I’m just as excited about the figurehead! Major Cthulhu vibes and I totally love me some Lovecraft! Everything is just so amazing on this project, and just the things you think to do I would never think about! But I learn and consider as I create concepts. I’m really happy to see it all come together and very proud of you. And stormy, for getting the fly! ❤️❤️❤️ from both of us, Chelsea and Catherine

I learned in college, from my art teacher; that Murphys Oil can save your paint brushes. Yes, The Murphys oil, that you use for cleaning/condishing wood. Leave your paint brush to soak for 10-30 mins in it full strength. Then start gently cleaning it as it gets soft. When it's clean set to dry. I know that thier are thousands of paint brush cleaning hacks, this one actually works. Try it before you throw away another brush.

Outside miniatures they could be added to a frame either to cover it or just add some extra intrest to certain sides or corners, holes drilled into two matching to make earrings that make you think of the project or a charms for a bracelet or necklace, or you could glue them together to make a small sculptural art piece for a desk or shelf.

Absolutely loved this episode. It might have been a good idea to add some warning tape around the cutout on the floor on top of the restoration bay though? It's truely a work of art :-)

Oh that's a great idea too! I will see if I have time to add it! Thank you😊❤

If you've ever read the children's book "My Dog's a Chicken," your dog's a Flyswatter 😂🥰 I never imagined that back when I first found your channel and remembering how inspired I felt watching the abandoned coffee shop that I would one day or ever inspire you!🥹 Thank You So Much My Friend, it's always a wonderful surprise when I am so into the video and then hear a shout out to me. I really love the straw idea and how they almost look like paper lanterns. 😊❤ The head figure came out awesomely, and I'm glad you added a reminder about adding water to the lightweight spackle, I think I can save mine, 🤔 hope I didn't throw it away. When you were creating the Infinity hall (so long ago) did you ever imagine that area looking like it does now and all that is going on?!?! I also realized I never sent you those scrolled maps I made, and now kicking myself, this would have been a perfect opportunity to use them and save you some work, you said you had so many I didnt send any.🫣🥺 Note To Self: When Ara says she has so many, send more!!😊❤

That figure head is amazing. Now I want to try to work with paper clay. ♥

I enjoy working with it a lot! Keep a little bowl of water near by and that will make it easy to smooth and form.

It looks amazing Ara, I wish I could see it in person. It's amazing how well it tells a story. The model puddle jumper got me, I thought it was Thunderbirds lol

Thank you Zoe!! Thunderbirds is a good guess though lol!

It was a walnut shell for a minute 😂 the details are so good in the restoration area, the sculpt is wild! The only thing I might add is one random towel and/or tool left on the top level OR the actual figurehead. Ha! I’d definitely leave a tool or rag somewhere and forget it’s there. But seriously your insane attention to detail has made strides in this project!
@BentleyHouseMinis 8 ай бұрын
The random towel on the figurehead is such a good idea! I will save a piece next time I am aging with another paper towel lol! You always see random rags still on the project that being reworked. Great idea! Thank you Kerri!

It looks so wonderful. It’s all looking so great. I will be wondering who the new character will be. Curiously and curiously. Curiosity, did something to the cat but I don’t want anything to happen to the kitty 🐈⬛ cat. I love what you did with the figure head. She looks amazing. It really looks like, the captain has just stepped away from that area, for just a moment. I love the model space ship area too. The lighting you made for it is perfect, for the space. Great work on everything, you should be definitely proud, of all the work and details, you have made in the last couple of weeks. Good for you. 🤗

Haha don't worry, Centauri is safe!! The stepped-away feel is just what I was going for so I really appreciate that! Thank you so much Dianne!❤

Sell the triangles by the bag. I'd love some. My arthritis keeps me from cutting. Since you started selling the "oops" it's been a lot more fun for me. It's a thought.
@BentleyHouseMinis 8 ай бұрын
Maybe when I get back from the trip I can add some. Would you prefer that they were triangles that all matched? There are so many different types in there!

How amazing! I love how the back drop of the figure head is the stain glass windows!! I can’t pick my favorite everything is just wonderful 😊 can’t wait for the next video to meet the new character! Those hat are fabulous ❤ Good job Stormy! As always thanks for sharing 😊

Thank you Liz!! Yes I feel like people we actually see the stained glass on the outside even more now because there is a reason to really look over there lol! I am very excited to introduce him😊

OMG,wonderful, only thing I would have changed is blue instead of redbecause of the ocean but its your story ,love the stuff.

Thank you! I chose red to go with the colors on the interior of the ship but I can see how blue would have worked well too, especially with the stained class windows so near by!

this was great as always, it would be super cute if you added some little paw prints on the drop sheet as if the cat had stepped in paint!

Wow Ara! The figurehead is so fantastic, the whole area turned out so perfect. I'm glad you fixed cat tower to be safe during time travel turbulence lol. I wonder what that feels like? I'm so proud of you taking on the lighting like you did, I'm still a scared little child. Patiently waiting for the story, umm maybe patiently is too strong a word. Best of luck getting finished up and to the museum. Oh, this is Cassandra from Houston btw, I don't know why my name changed. xxx
@BentleyHouseMinis 8 ай бұрын
Thank you Cassandra!! I was scared of it for a long time... and to be honest I am still learning with a lot of caution because I still don't understand it all. But I hope to keep sharing what I know so that others can learn and try it out too!
