UPDATE...7/27/2022...

Here is the latest flattie project for 2022...I'm calling him "Mr. Brady"...the photographer for the Pine Mountain Valley Gazette...

I didn't post pictures of the individual parts since making him is so much like the other flattie projects...but I will list them...

Body...with separate arm and narrow hat brim...

Camera...with tripod legs made from small paperclip wire...

Base...rolling cardboard snow background, small clump of cardboard snow that covers two of the tripod legs, two kitchen matches and a cigar shaped base...

I assembled the body, camera with tripod and base as separate pieces using super glue...the final joining of the parts was also done with super glue...

He's in the paint shop right now getting two coats of white primer...then the color details...stay tuned...

Howard...
