So, I been working my a#@ off trying to make Uncle Cleetus a house, and he's been spending the day sleeping in. Lazy bum. I guess it was all the beer he drank last night. Oh well, at least Old Roger is out there guarding the fort.

Update* I took Belleski's advice on the dog and toned him down. I also took Ron's advice (sort of) and made a clothesline. I got lazy, didn't want to try the umbrella style, so I just strung it between 2 trees.

hey Slosh..that cracks me up....though I have never lived like that, I know some that have over the years....park that thing next to a creek for water, and one of those umbrella style clothes lines always full of laundry....and wherever they parked the trailer, within a few days the whole area was one big mud pit and ya have to have a broke down rusting vehicle being taken over by foliage setting on blocks...you are on the right track with Cleetus though...o yeah...one other thing that ya see will be a scene like that and there will be a brand new 20 thousand dollar bass boat sitting proudly in the yard... ;) thnx for sharing this whimsical piece.. :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu: :tu:

Slosh, this is a phenominal piece. The old trailer is quite realistic. The beer cans add
that special touch. (The highlight on the dog needs to go. It is taking away from the image.) Great work. :tu:

Hey Belleski - you read my mind with the dog. I originally did not have the highlight, but then thought he looked too dark, but after final render, I wasn't sure about it (but it was 6:30 am, and I had to get to sleep). I actually planned on revamping Old Roger. Thanks for confirming my own thoughts, that helps me decide.

Ron - clothesline and rusty pick-up on blocks is definitely in the plans! You also read my mind. Started working on the truck, but it was harder than I thought, so I gave up for a little while. Cleetus also needs to mow his lawn (thought I might half mow it, then let the lawnmower sit in the mow path, broken down or something.) Also adding an aerial tv antenna.

Wow, thanks for all the great comments, guys! I guess I have redneck in my blood, cuz this required no actual thought on my part. LOL. There is a part of town here where I'm from that just screams redneck. Kathy will know what I mean.
