After being intrigued by Saxonhalfling thread on looking for a proxy suit.
I said I'd give it a bash in cereal packet making a hybrid model using the picture in his thread as inspiration.
So rather than piggybacking his thread.

Here's a couple of progress pictures .

Holy cow; that's looking amazing! 8)

And in card too... Was it just card, or did you also use some kind of putty and/or filler?
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Cheers Chaps,

The answer is no. All the tales from the tin shed. Cereal packet card projects/threads don't use anything other than cereal packet and super glue ( couple of households basics like cocktail sticks snd so on) They don't use clays or filler .
This one's no different . The rest of the detailing will be card hands and all
Mainly because I make these sat on the sofa and I can't be beggered to go out to the workshop and round up anything clever.

Cheers Chaps,
It floated off to live on my son's desk at work today. I may make another as I finally found a use for one. (  would round off a bag of figures I mentioned earlier in another thread when I didn't know still made them. Hay Ho. ::) )

I'm amazed at how you've managed to round off the edges like that in cardboard - no wonder people think it is putty!  :o
