Bonnie Parker - Prepwork

By way of update, the prep on Bonnie is about 85% done:
  • The head has been resculpted (note: cigar has been eliminated).
  • The skirt has been lengthened and "re-cut".
  • The shoes have been resculpted. And. . . 
  • The Colt M1917 has been resculpted. The main issue was the distorted barrel which has been replaced with a length of 22ga. hypodermic tubing.
These are the major issues with the figurine. In addition to the final finishing of the above, there are another 4-5 points of detail that are currently in-progress of being addressed.

I am hoping to have her primed by the end of July, but this is at best a hopeful guess-timate.

UPDATE 20.06.2015. . . The additive putty-work has been concluded. Now comes the final clean-up and detailing, with the attendant touch-ups. . .
