Deciding which way round the back drop should be.I like the leaf behind the tree as it pads the tree out a little but when the leaf is on the other side it forms an arch which i see as a hint towards the wedding at the end of the story.

Dummling and Princess
Princess has her hair down, prepared for marriage.
Simple fabrics, no embellishment but Tudor silhouettes
Versailles Opus Stone Flooring
Finished Flooring board. Very happy with it! Went alot better than i expected.
William Morris
Although William Morris is more Victorian era than Tudor, his pieces have been a source of inspiration for my backdrop.
Tree Trial
This tree was made using a chicken wire tube to make up the trunk and single wires constructing the roots and branches. The model was then covered in modrock and then the plan was to cover and add texture with milliput. When adding the milliput I realised that the underlying structure was not sturdy enough to stand along or to hold the weight of even a small bit of milliput. I also wasnt happy with the branches as there were too many and they were too thin and wispy looking.
