Action Man Polar Explorer: Setting Off

Now the Grandkids have gone home I've started my next home made Action Man outfit, the Polar Explorer.

I recently picked up some original Palitoy polar boots, which was sort of the spark. Bill gave me a KO white rifle and a small ski, also sparks.

So I broke the ice and got stuck in, first staining and old doll smock orange. I prefer the orange mountaineer colour to the red explorer.


I then stained some Modern white Hasbro slacks blue.


I borrowed the Missus' old nifty hole puncher for ski stick guards.


And inserted them on double pen cartridges.


This Hasbro mask was cut down to make the explorer ......


Visor


And finally, for tonight, I rescued this Playmobil sledge from my scraps box, a no brainier.


Till tomorrow.

    Modelling at the speed of light - in contrast to my slow as a glacier approach.
