X-Mas Angel

Once again, a small conversion due to Christmas.

This time, I have once again selected 

a lady from my collection of duplicate figures.

First, I drew her wings on a piece of paper

to see how it would look.

Finally, I had the shape that appealed to me.

I traced the shape onto a piece of plastic.

Then I cut it out and bent part of it in the middle

so that I could attach the wings more easily.

I made a notch where the wings would go

and stuck the double-folded part into it.

While the wings were drying,

I made a halo out of a paperclip.


Drill a hole, cut a paperclip to length,

assemble, and my angel is ready.


So you see, with a few very simple steps,

this lady becomes an angel.

After a coat of primer, it's clear what it was supposed to be.

And with paint, it immediately looked completely different.


The silver highlights on her wings didn't stand out, so I added some glitter here.


Not much work, but a nice result!


Another addition to the X-Mas collection.

She joins the others:

Asterix with handbell

Obelix with Christmastree

Druïde with Candystick

Let's see if I can find some inspiration to expand this series.

Do you have any ideas? Let me know.
