Bonjour,
We are finishing the work on our french adaptation of Bruce's book this
week.
For the cover I'm searching for a fine looking picture of someone
projecting plaster on a SB wall. The picture will be about 8x8 cm (2,5x
2,5 inch) so it cannot be a very 'crowded' shot. Less is better! If it
can be a colourfull plaster that would be great.
It can also be a close-up shot 'nozzle-plaster flying-and wall'.
A good shot of someone applying plaser with a trowel will also do.
The idea is that it the cover should please to the 'regular' builders.
The problem with my own pictures is that I allways apply the base coat
by hand. I'll happily continue doing so, but the regular french building
professionals have a typical way of snobbing that approach. I'll gladly
adapt my cover to please them. Next they might come for a workshop and
then I'll get them slapping mud ;-)
For your information, I am happy to announce that I co-publish the book
with Eyrolles, one of the 2 main french publishers for the regular
building trade. That way I hope that the regular building professionels
will gain more acceptance for SB building. A bit like getting Lafarge
(the cement giant) to say on TV that straw is the way to go ;-)
Anyway, your help is very much appréciated.
Ofcourse you will be credited (and can be payed if you want)
Bye,
André
