The Final Days: Busy, Busy, Busy....

These last few classes and work outside of class has been completed with such expectations.  The castle has turned out really well.  Tommorrow's the big exhibition day.  Looking back, I almost think we may have been too detail centric in our Hogwarts castle.  When it came to choosing between how things are done in the book and the movie, we choose the book, even though more people have seen the movie.  Oh well.  It's sure to get some attention even if its not completly understood.  So here are some last final pictures and if I remember, I get some video footage of the Hogwarts castle in action tommorrow.  Thursday is the sad day, when the castle must be dismembered.
Potions Books, can anyone say "Half Blood Prince."  These will be found in the
Room of Requirement and one of the tasks is to retrive a book before the door closes.

Harry Potter of course!

Voldemort boo, hisss.

Banners to decorate the great hall.  Each of the Four Houses,
Hufflepuff, Slytherin...

Gryffindor and Ravenclaw.

We wanted to include the Hogwarts school crest in here somewhere.
It always decorates the wall very nicely.

Fluffy really is fluffy.  He doesn't look as ferocious as the one in the movie,
but then the danger always comes from the least expected locations.

Our sensor for opening the door is cleverly hidden by my
partner Karishma's beautifully handmade rug.
We don't have any pictures of the Basilisk which was finished last night, but I will be sure to post pictures of him from tommorrow's exhibition.  Last night we ran into technical dificulties, when we put on the Basilisk's head and realized he now couldn't fit through the doorway.  So that is also one reason why we don't have pictures of him.  He wasn't completly decorated until last night.
