Progress on Cartload - IV

Over the past one week, I have been working quite a bit on the kit, and I was particularly enthusiastic after my visit to JoAnn's. However, the colours didn't match quite exactly as warned on the websites carrying the Anchor to DMC conversion chart. You can see for yourself in the difference in shades between the wisps of hay on the top and the bottom of the haystack However, the one thing of consolation is that the difference in shades is not that obvious when the kit is viewed directly. With regions starting to get filled up, the canvas has also started bending, particularly in areas where it was creased due to folds during packing. These will get corrected in the framing process (this has been my experience from working with previous kits)

Here are the latest updates on the kit, and as usual, the most recent status of the work is right on top.


Time spent on identifying and working out the above regions: 4.5 hours
Total time spent on the kit so far: 50.5 hours (approx.)
