"Sisters". "Siostry".


This is what I've been making lately.
Called this post "sisters" as a wardrobe is "she" in Polish.;) Their shape had been chosen by customer.




They are in 1:6 scale. Quite big. The work in this scale is similar but also very different. First of all one piece needs a lot of supplies: a lot of wood, a lot f wood stain etc. And a lot of hours of work. 



Not sure if I want to make anything more in this scale yet. Surely I prefer to make smaller pieces.:)
Anyway I hope customer will like them, fingers crossed!

A to właśnie jest to, nad czym pracowałam ostatnio. Skala 1:6. Spora. Praca niby podobna jak przy 1:12, a jednak inna. Dużo większe zużycie materiałów, nawet na jedną szafę, i mnóstwo pracy. Tak czy inaczej mam nadzieję, że będą się podobały Klientce na żywo.

Ewa, I love that you call them "Sisters"! They are very Grand and Graceful! I Imagine working in 1/6 scale when you are used to 1/12 would be a "huge" challenge! Really, the pieces are quite Large at that scale! It looks like you succeeded and I hope your customer is happy!

Hi Ewa, Your are a skilled cabinet maker for sure, they are a very interesting design. I can imagine it would be difficult to adapt to the larger scale but you have done a fabulous job, I am certain your customer will be thrilled.

They are super nice. A good detail with shelves, on the side of the cabinets. I could use some of thise in 1-1. Nice.

Szafy wyglądają bardzo realnie, jestem ciekawa jak będą wyglądały w umeblowanym pokoiku. W każdej Twojej pracy widać prawdziwe "porozumienie" (jeśli można to tak nazwać;)z materiałem, zwłaszcza z drewnem, podoba mi się właśnie ta relacja

How stylish! They look rather like some 1:1 Art Deco wardrobes I've seen in antique shops...

I love the Deco shapes of your 'sisters.' Would these be for 'Barbie'-sized dolls?

So nice to meet your lovely big sisters! They're beautiful - the shape is very interesting and the wood with its texture gorgeous. I have no doubt you're customer will be over the moon with them. And you've been working in 1:6 this time, yes, I can imagine what a difference this is. Btw - I think this piece would look fantastic in 1:12, too... ;O)

Hugs
Birgit

Pięknie wykonane, widać ogrom włożonej pracy.

Szafy wyglądają naprawdę realistycznie - pamiętam, że prawie identyczne stały u mojej babci... :)
Ale jak udało Ci się pomalować drewno w taki sposób?! Wygląda jak prawdziwe!

The Old Maid said...

Lady Fanaberia - dziękuję! Drewno potraktowane zostało bejcą, początkowo orzechową, a potem olchową i wykończone politurą rubinową.
