Farewell to Charr.

A bittersweet weekend.

It saw the departure of a landmark.

From Year of the Charr

Charr marked numberous landmarks for me. First segmented build. First use of burlap, which has become a staple. First use of conduit, which is also a staple.

However, he was BIG. And took a sizeable portion of my available storage. So, it was early in the year that I decided Charr must go. I had plans to go in and salvage the conduit and anything else I could muster. Toyed with the idea of giving him one final year. But, he had to go.

From Halloween 2009

Aside from Fred, no prop has garnered more comments than Charr.

It was a hard decision to let him go. However, I am pleased that Charr will live on, he has simply moved considerably south, finding a new home in Diablo’s Dome, a new local haunt starting up this year. There he will join Steve, and a host of my skulls in providing entertainment.

Shortly, a brand new Chimera will be heading south to join them as well…

Then we’ll get back to our regulardy scheduled oddities.
