More set building - refining the junkyard cardboard look

[below] recap from where I left off last time, with a shiny new pub/shop front. Unfortunately this makes everything else look unacceptably shabby. also, the space still doesn't flow the way I want it too (*the set should look like a freeze frame in a storm- whipped up, tense, like the borough*)
[below] Shiny new Moot Hall door (needs a windowpane- maybe stain glass?). I also extended the platform halfway up the stairs so it can sit further back and free up space around the doors. I also took out the second pillar from stage left (?) creating an open space, I plan to create a curved backdrop which will partly fill this new space and cover the wings.
[below] The boat got a makeover, it felt too clumsy suspended on its side, it doesn't quite follow the right line in this position but I like the ghostly way it hangs back (*like a reminder of the disaster that killed the first apprentice*)
So still a lot to do for Thursday but, in my humble opinion, it's looking good. 

P.S. (* this means WARNING: contains arty poetics/concept/bull *)
