The picture tarp should go up this week, according to sources. It was originaly planned last monday, but obviously that didn't happen.

Did Disney already paint the top, because I can't see the grey spots anymore?

Is it me or (if they have painted the top over the grey spots) or does it look... pearl?  Like a soft pink pearl?  I hope they keep it like that, its nice, if it goes pinker then it will ruin it.

I thought the same. Maybe it is due to the sun, but it looks like a brighter pink. And I think they have already painted the top, otherwise you would see the grey spots from fixing the holes.

Hopefully they use a brighter pink, I think that will look better.

Oh as long as they are still planning on putting a picture tarp up that's the main thing! It would be such a shame to leave it looking like a construction site!

I think so too. I don't know if they've yet to age it (darken the edges etc.), but it does look lighter and softer. I like it! I hope they continue that shade.

The current/old pink looks okay on a sunny day, but quite awful on a rainy, cloudy day. It's far too intense. A softer shade would be a lot more elegant.

So true, with a cloudy sky behind it, the castle's colour is far too saturated  :sick:

According to some members of Disney Central Plaza, the printed tarp has been installed, BUT my French is not the best anymore, so there is a big chance that I misread it. :D

Okay, I don't know what to say and I don't know if I like that. It looks like candy. It seems the tarp is painted instead of a printed photo of the castle. I think that's not the same way like Disney did it with the Main street USA buildings in recent years.

I actually think its pretty good - although I'm perhaps going to be alone in thinking that.

It's not quite what I was expecting, but I MUCH prefer this than just a blank canvas!

Lola, I must admit - I quite like it too!!!

Indeed, definately better than the white canvas!

Excellent! The Magic is preserved! Indeed, sources are indicating that the scarfolding will come done just before the summer season begins (9th July) in order to show the fireworks. Can't wait to see our 'beauty' once again shine like never before!
