I haven't posted on this blog for 3 months now as I've been busy with a conversion project. Unfortunately it isn't one that can be done with Green Stuff and solder.
The conversion in question is me having my nose re-built from scratch after having most of it removed following a diagnosis of skin cancer. This is the current situation after 7 surgical procedures.
As you can see I can't wear my specs so painting is out of the question. The next procedure is scheduled for next week, hopefully this will be my last major operation and I can start painting again after a few weeks of recovery. It's so frustrating getting a lot of time off work and not being able to do anything productive! Also this is the second time round with this series of operations, the first was in Autumn last year but the results were 'sub-optimal'. If the outcome isn't any better this time I might suggest that the surgeon does a head-swap! My OH's choice for a donor head would be Johnny Depp, but I think he might not have finished with it yet.
