Restoring The Alton Towers Bookworm - Episode 4
1,649In 1996 Alton Towers opened a new themed area called Storybook Land. A huge part of this new family area would be a large animatronic bookworm, that would go on to entertain millions of guests at the park. After the area closed at the end of 2013, I managed to acquire this piece of Alton Towers history. But unfortunately the park had let the Bookworm fall into disrepair, meaning it would take a huge amount of work to restore. In this exciting series I'll be showing the long, but meaningful journey of restoring this classic piece of Alton Towers history.
In episode 4 of this epic series, we start the painting process by adding different colours of paint across the Bookworm. This includes the long process of paining the final details on the front of the body. Along with this we start to make finishing touches to other aspects of the project such as the book, hat and spyglass.
