  urlLink Have been quite busy in rl as of late, some personal issues to deal with...None too pleasant but such is life at times. Managed to get a few days work in over at Cassandra's, exterior trim work- doors, windows...I find exteriors a bit of a pain as there simply is no means of quality control. Blasted bugs, leaves, debris...blowing onto the fresh paint work, almost seems pointless spending all that time doing a good prep job if the final result isn't up to par.
Matt's place is to be done next, if and when the rain lets up. Guess he has some stripping to be done on the second and third floor windows via the use of a blow torch. Not sure I fancy the work myself, having double jointed elbows makes lifting heavy, bulky things rather difficult especially up ladders whilst trying to support oneself with one arm, holding a propane tank with the same one and using the other to burn off crusty old toxic paint.
Yeah, not really my cuppa tea, though I suppose it would be a new skill to add to the resume. Had a call from Hotsets this past weekend to do some scenic for a commercial and received a call from Rach saying she'd past my name and number on to a key over at NABET as he was looking for a good scenic...unfortunately I was busy digging up my parents yard and laying down a cascading flag stone/crazy paving patio. Bleedin 'ell my thighs, back, wrists, fingers, palms, knees, shoulders...all ache like mad. Well thats about it.
Dosh still trickling in though not much of it and even less film work, though IATSE is supposed to be stompin by the end of August, 3 Features coming in and I have mates positioned as heads on two of them so it's simply a case of playing the waiting game for a whee bit more.
