as my car is working again, which is utterly amazing, i've decided to do more with the interior decorations... it's time for the melmobile to go internally steampunk.

while i'm far more of a fan of neo-victroian, due to the fact it is impractical and inequitable to trade my lovely car for a horse and buggy, it seems the best couse of action of awesomising the melmobile, would be to re-build her interior consoles etc.

i'm going to paint the blue rubber leatherpattern stuff to look like actual leather, i.e. not blue, but brown, and i'm thinking of either repacing some of the knobs with brass and crystal ones, or atleast painting them gold, and possibly building an mdf box-type thing and staining it with my walnut stain, and giving it brass corners or such things, and perhaps re-writing some of the signages, such as the temp-guage for the air-con, and maybe the gearbox. seeing that i already have a pair of vintage leather driving gloves in my glove box, i think it will all come together nicely.

the project should be really fun actually, and i'll definately be posting pictures.

night all
