So this one was interesting to think through, but I didn't actually manage to make too much progress. Basically, imagine a pot and a lid. Now imagine my smokestack thing being the pot and now I'm trying to make the lid. This component shouldn't be too complex, but I first needed to start with a sheet that would wrap around the current smokestack backpack so it'd fit snugly. This was accomplished simply by cutting some poster paper into 5 inch strips and layering them 4 times like I did with the backpack's wall lining. The rest I've managed to do was get the paint going and... well, that's about it. I let it sit for 24 hours but it hadn't quite dried so I let it sit again last night so I'll probably to work on that tonight. | So this one was interesting to think through, but I didn't actually manage to make too much progress.
