The day and age of social media tends to favor the little guy...

Anywho, Asylum themed haunt 2 hours south (~100 miles) is remodeling and wants me to come adapt my prison theme to fit their facility, and is open to pulling the extreme mode/hands ON.

[Unorthodox]

Ugh...yeah, it needs to be gutted.

I can almost do a room by room what not to do on that thing.

I take it you want the gig?

[Unorthodox]

I don't know, there's a LOT of work that needs doing and it's far enough to be inconvenient.  The floor plan really needs to be redone first of all, and that might not even be an option. 

They recognize it's broken, at least.

You always have complex feelings about working on anyone else's haunt...

[Rusty Edge]

You'd have to get them wet first.

Ha!Ha!

...Somebody actually got the joke  ...

I recall having to actually do that with some bugs.  Dried out, they're too brittle to mount for display, so I had to come up with a way to...refresh their bodies.  It takes more than water...

Doh!

Forgot to upload the update on the new chimera.

Plaster shell done.  Ready to start on the clay. 

Went to a local mom and pop craft store to get the clay.  They are as cheap as using a coupon at one of the chain stores for this particular clay, more expensive on some other items.  While there, I noticed a ton of jars I can use to make candles were on sale, so I grabbed up a bunch of those, and some various other supplies.  All told I had more than $100 in the cart.  I wheel up to the register: "Hey, you bought clay here before didn't you?" 

"Yeah, we bought a bunch last year."

"You were building that big thing for Halloween, right?  How did that turn out?"

"Oh, the tomb turned out great, wish I had a picture on me to show you.  We ended up selling him." 

"Just a minute." 

-comes back with owner.

"We're totally giving you a discount." 

(Manager)"We've been watching your work on your website and would like to become a sponsor, if you're open to such a thing.  We'd also be happy to sell any of your items here in the shop if you need an outlet."
