basement renovation 2

After positioning the shower back and forth for I dunno how many times, it finally in place. Let's see what went wrong: Walls were to small, so I had to make it wider. Shower had to be raised, the drain connection sticks out an inch higher. And I forgot to place a support backing for the shower handle! (DoH!) For the rest, 2 more layers of joint compound needs to be applied and then primer paint can be put on. There are 3 doors that needs to be put up too and a closet door. Slowly but surely it will be done. Hopefully before William's Birthday, so we can have it there!

This week's model was a more heavy set woman which is a bit more challenging due to bones and reference markers being hidden.
