Description This was the first revision of the Fimo gift I made for Dad. He drives a truck, so without really thinking it through, I started with the idea of making him driving a truck. He doesn't drive a flatbed truck, but I didn't want to make a big solid hunk of Fimo for the truck back. It immediately started to sag (my brown is Fimo Soft -- perhaps Fimo Classic would have worked better), and it never really recovered as you can see, even with a paperclip embedded in it to try and give it some structure.

This is here in scraps since it's not what I ended up giving Dad.

Heehee. I wish I knew how to represent the horn I'm thinking of in text, but the only description I can think of is "clown car". That'd be hilarious to have with and then give that as a joke ~_^ Great job anyway even if the materials were lacking a bit. that only reflects on the tools, not the artist

Heh, you're too kind. (: I'm still learning the properties and limitations of the medium, and it's expected I'll have a few failures before I create a true masterpiece. It'll be a while before I'm up to ~Dragonfeelers ' level, but I'm having fun learning. (:
