Let's Face It

 I've had fun with this car boot cheapo.

His plastic face was damaged.  On the nose, mouth and ears. A right scalpel job!

Initially trying PVA glue, which didn't work, I then deployed FIMO into the holes.


A little colouring later with a paint pen and voila!


All this fella needs now is some feet!

    More Fimo ? That is a really good repair job. You have re-built him.

  3. Yay! I knew you could do it!
    Fimo to the rescue. I suppose the other alternative would have been to turn him into a WW2 flier with war wounds...

  5. That's a top piece of restoration work, Woodsy. Love seeing old damaged toys restored like this. A worthwhile skill indeed :)
