Hey Guys,

Here's an update on the mural (and possibly the last one).

With the exception of a fabricated piece being done at home, the mural is complete!

There were four areas left to be "touched up", and all were conquered in one afternoon. 

The first was an area originally set up for a large office building or a Times Square look-a-like that our past president wanted.  The idea was being juggled as to what to do with this area, which BTW is also the spot where water flooded in from outside when heavy rains came (an issue resolved in the last year).  But in the end, I did what our current president asked me to do: cover the area to match the rest of the sky.

The second area was under and on the sides of a building flat placed on the wall.  Unfortunately, the building is in a spot blocked off by five sets of track, three Christmas trains, two large bridges, and a little ice cream parlorrrrrr..........you have to excuse me for I have a Christmas song playing in my head as I'm typing.

Anyway, after dodging these obstacles,  the edges around this building were painted.

The third area was a moulding in between EIGHT building flats.  THIS spot I did what I envisioned: paint this area brown and add pieces to it so the result would be a building to match the other flats.

Last but not least, I had enough time to fabricate a top to the military headquarters, as I mention earlier, using plastic sheets and a little hot glue.  A photo will be shown later when it is complete.

Anyway, thanks for watching.  See ya around!
