catopower Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Ekis, I've been watching some of your progress on the Zootoyz Facebook page. A beautiful take on the Japanese coastal transport! The chopsticks stuck into the box make me think votive model, but then I wonder what's inside the box? Anyway, I love the coloring and added details. I'm inspired to get back to wrapping up my forever in-progress Japanese coastal transport. Edited March 20, 2023 by catopower Ekis 1

You yourself are a specialist in Japanese boats and I follow absolutely all the constructions with the historical rigor to respect the design. In fact, in this tea box, there is self hardening clay to ensure the stability of the whole and to keep the support sticks permanently... I wanted to showcase the clean design of these boats and make the whole thing visually light. I also wanted to recall the origin of these boats built for the transportation of goods such as tea, sake and rice. Edited March 20, 2023 by Ekis catopower 1
