 Starting with a 1/18 scale Jeep die cast model I disassembled, stripped the paint and started over. Make your own kit !! The resin figure is put out by "Fast Women" #101- Belle. She too lost her factory paint job.  The base was from another die cast models' mounting platform, I turned it over, added sidewalls and filled it in with foam core scraps and pre-colored polyfilla. The Jeeps 4 wheels were cut in half to sink it into the basework. More ruts were carved into drying polyfilla. Some celluclay was also used along with woodland scenics grasses.  Blond babe was painted using artist oils and acrylics. Oils work great for flesh and she was a treat to paint, a well sculpted figure. Her hand bag was made from paper. Interior of Jeep got the following upgrades, tissue paper zebra print car seat-covers, guitar string antenna wire, seats were chalked for dust effect. A Warsteiner beer cooler, teddy bear, cushion, and luggage.  Spare tire cover from tissue also. Gloss acrylic varnish and future floor wax used for glossy mud and wet soil.  Glad you are all behind me, now push !! |

Looks likes she's going to have a poo into the passenger seat :/ Maybe it's her former boyfriend's car who cheated on her (and that would explain both her satisfied expression and the fact that the car won't be easy to pull out of mud)  Great job, I had missed this one. |
