Hi all well Maureen mentiond about Grandpa having a Hot air balloon and I thought it would be really nice if my Grandpa figiure did too. :-D So now I have made Grandpas balloon and it is now being displayed along side my collection. :D If and when I have the time and room I think it will look nice flying over my smurf village. Now hows that for a bit of scenery lol. :) Hope you all like it and thankyou Maureen for the photo of it and the idea :-D :cheers:

Well the Balloon took about 3 days as i needed to wait and wait and wait for the paper machee to dry :( As you can guess im no good at waiting im not a very paciet person. :banghead: :) :) But as for my figures it usuly takes about 1 day from morning to late evening as i need to sculpt the plactice figure then make the mold and finally fill it with liquid rubber and wait about 4 5 hours for it to dry. :???: :) Then i can turn it out and paint it YAY.
So there you have it somthing that takes all day to make explained in about 10 second. :) :)
Thankyou for all the nice comments and as i said before a BIG THANKYOU! To Maureen who sent me a pic of it and gave me the ideas and for helping me with sending me lots of pics of other great smurfies I want to make when i get the time. :-D :cheers: I am still looking for pics of alot of other smurfy characters to make if anyone can help. :D
Smurfy regards, Steve. :D

I saw that balloon when I was over there didn't I Steve? Your creations are always look great.

I love how you have all of the smurfs at the front door so you are instantly greeted with them. Must always bring a smile when walking back in your home.
