Title: James Bond Aston Martin and naked Jill Masterson
Post by: Svennn on January 17, 2008, 11:34:06 AM

I have a friend who is mad about all things Bond and is constantly getting me to re-paint allsorts for him just to get something a little different. This idea came to me last night and I must say I am rather pleased with the results

Oooh, its one of those Corgi Aston Martins with a ejector seat, isn't it? I yerned for one of those as a kid but my mother wouldn't let me have on becuase "they could shoot your eye out", which is so-o-o bogus.

How did you do the application. Dry transfer?

I guess I have one of those somewhere, but its missing the ejection seat, the passengers and maybe even the roof tile.

I had one of those. Lost the ejecting Chinaman, and the backup Chinaman. Roof broke off, too. Oh well. At least it was loved and played with, rather than sitting in its packaging on a collecting nerd's shelf. Toys are for playing with, not investing in, in my opinion.

You could still get them quite recently, probably still can. Got one for the nephew's birthday a few years ago, when he was in a James Bond craze.

Hear hear!

Back2topic: Nice effect on that transfer. I assume the slight "grain" is due to the quality of the used image rather than the printer?
