I made a thing! (specifically: a hobbit-hole for my cats)

Finished product first! (sort of: my goal was to have it done in 2016 and we are leaving to party soon so this is as far as its getting :D).

Initial sketches. I was going to have a door initially. Scrapped it as cats kept changing their mind on being inside the door. Or outside the door. Or inside the door.

Getting 3D n shit. Managed to only cut myself slightly: success!

Side view of tasty tasty ribs.

More spines added. Supervisor approves.

Missing a stage here. I did lots of papier macheing. Lots.

George aka Grumpy Bread Loaf is happy.

Joists on. Glue every where. Why did I try use a scalpel. Hands aren't important right?

Turning on the old razzle dazzle with some gold metallic paint.

Turning it off again because wood shouldn't be sparkly apparently. Added nails though, which are cute.

You think this is a progress pic. It's not. Just happened to capture this (regrettable - a big "yup it's broken now") stage of progress in the foreground of a picture of Princess Cat - top left.

^my two lil heffalump pavement specials.

Tolkein nerd and crazy cat lady level 100 here but they're so frigging cute how can I not :x
