Here's the altered box painted to look like wood. I just Love the periscope I made from some hose fittings and rubber tubing!
Some close ups of the Captain , I made the ships wheel from a washer and pearl ended pins painted gold. If you look really close you can see a fish swimming past the porthole!
Wonder whats in the barrel under lock and key? A map rolled into a bottle sits in storage. Of course the gears that keep everything moving!
A creature from the deep done on acetate and real sea shells and coral in the background.
I entered this in a challenge at Sandys Space

This was so much fun to look at! Amzing details! This looks like a really fun stamp set.
Hi Lynn...I was going to leave the recipe for the cover of my Secrets journal but got completely distracted by your cool Nautical piece. I sent it to you email cause it was getting a bit wordy! LOL...I'm never wordy!

i like it! so cool!
SQUEE miniatures! The colors and textures are SO dead-on. I really love it. The size and arrangement of the compartments reminds me of (this is really strange, I know) the set from Legends of the Hidden Temple on Nickelodeon in the 90's. The rooms were all different like this and it was set up so the audience could see in like this, diorama style. I *love* it!
Gorgeous! I love it!
Gorgeous! I love it!
Wow, it looks gorgeous. Congrats on the good work!
Seeing creations like these makes me wish even more that I wasn't totally without any artistic sense or talent !
Fabulous !

Omigosh! I got behind on your posts and just found these undersea and punk treasures!!! Wonderful.
That is so awesome! Very pretty :)
Very cool stuff and also very beautiful.
What can I say to you, that 80 other people haven't said already.
Your box is like a little dream world.
If you look close, you can fantasys about jules vernes book.
Kaptain Nemo is in your box to.
Wonderful.
Wow!!! I have to say this is brilliant! Love all those little perfect details! Brilliant!*hugz*
Wowsers, Lynn...this made a huge splash back then and is sure to with Sandy's challenge! love, love where you took the 'punk!
Happy New Year
Wow! This is absolutely amazing!!!
How incredible all the details you put into your project. The netting, gears, pipe - everywhere I look I find more interesting surprises. Thanks for playing along with my challenge !
What an ingenious style you have. I love the nautical elements, having lived near the Atlantic ocean and your touch of whimsy along with found metal embellishments is so much fun!
