Santa Edna de los Gatos
« on: July 24, 2020, 10:08:20 AM »
I built a fountain.   It is a statue of Santa Edna de los Gatos.  Reaper miniatures 50235 Edna the crazy cat lady for the statue and some of the cats.  All construction is foamex.

Used some fishing line too to get the curve in the spouts. 
I used this toot for the water spout if you are interested.
