Making a "Boy and Girl Flattie"...

What kind of figures have been used with cardboard Christmas houses and villages, where do you get appropriate figures today, how do you make, prepair, repair or otherwise maintain figures?

Making a "Boy and Girl Flattie"...

Post by Howard »

Good afternoon to all...

Here are the last two "flatties" i have in the works for a while...that is, unless i find a "very interesting subject"...

These two are only about 1 1/4" tall...so there won't be a need for too much "layering" of details...just the usual...

My very best regards...Howard...

greetings to all...

these two are ready for primer and finish...i did layer on a few details...see the photo below...also note that a paper clip wire brace has been glued on the back of the boy...his leg is just too fragile and would probably break later...

my very best regards...howard...
