All of this research has been leading me to an Arts and Sciences Competition which will be held next weekend. The research paper is complete.

The shrine itself is nearing a completed state and should be ready in time for the competition.

The statues that go in the shrine are not as close to a completed state but should be recognizable as statues by next weekend. Everything seems to take considerably longer than I think it should. And as a result it’s not going to look the way I think it should but this is not a new state of thought for me. I have impossibly high standards for myself.

So after next weekend I will be able to post full pictures of the project and the results of the competition. Until then I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
