The story so far …

So far in “The Beastly Lion”, the glass – measuring some 430 mm across: not small – has been given a good undercoat and left to dry. (If you missed it, you can watch episode #1 right here.)

Find out now what happens next.

Here’s where we’re eventually heading:

And here’s a close-up shot:

The Beastly Lion of Wolsey Towers

And his is where we are right now – so there’s still a long, long way to go …

In episode #1 – the undercoat

Notes

OK, so about two minutes in, the glass painter gives himself a test patch: this is a test patch for the tracing paint he’s mixing.

Four minutes in, having tried to trace, the glass painter notices that his palette is far too wet. So he removes some paint from around the edges. Otherwise it would be impossible to control the tracing paint as you will see in Episode #3 …
