Making "Mr. Walker"...another "flattie" figurine project...

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 "Mr. Walker"...another "flattie" figurine project...

Post by Howard »

good afternoon to all...

this "flattie" was inspired by the Jonnie Walker(R) brand scotch logo...i can't post the illustration since it is copyright protected...but you can google the name to see the inspiration illustration...my color scheme will probably be slightly different...and i've also made a few changes in the pose and coat tails...

more later...

my very best regards...howard...

Mr. Walker is very classy. I can't wait to see his companion and the little dog.
