As I mentioned, today is an 'off day' at the painting bench. So I decided to spend some time with Joe. I have permanently attached the
arm and the left leg, and have tentatively fitted the head, as well as
begun converting the collared neck to a crew neck. All I can say is
that this is very dis- turbing little piece. . . and I mean that as a
compliment!!!
FOLLOW-UP.
. . Clean-up on Joe is just about done! This speaks more to the quality
of the casting and the thought that went into laying-out the mold than
how fast I can work!!
I
did enhance the shorts somewhat: I undercut the flaps of the cargo
pockets, added a button, and pleated the pockets. These add relief and
an interesting point of detail that will direct the eyes upward.
