Over the busy festive period I grabbed time where I could and documented very little. Details were added throughout; I created lamps from polystyrene extrusion, “fleshed” out the butchery table and drying racks, draped rope and canvas over most surfaces, etc.

Next I sealed the EVA foam rock faces with a mixture of equal parts PVA, acrylic paint, gesso, and water, with a few drops of dish soap to aid surface tension.

I then decided I wanted more texture on the rock faces and spent over five hours adding milliput barnacles, using a selection of ball styluses, to every recess that I imagined would regularly be submerged by tides. I applied the milliput in small lumps and used the larger stylus to push them into shape and add deep recesses then about 30 mins later as it began to cure I textured the raised areas further with smaller styluses.
