Description Here's my entry to %semi-sweeties 's

As the title may have suggested , the movie I chose is Grease.
I love musicals and the 50's are my favourite decade, so it makes sense that Grease is one of my all-time favourite movies!

Click here for more pictures!

I tried to reproduce the scene in which all the Greasers and Pink Ladies meet up at the local diner, the Frosty Palace. Click here for a screen cap!

Edit: whaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Huge, huge thanks to =Kida-neechan for suggesting this as a DD, and to ^cakecrumbs for featuring
I'm so gleeful right now that it's kind of awkward

Technical breakdown:
Everything shown was handmade in a 1:6 scale; more specifically..

Burgers are made with polymer clay and coloured with chalks and acrylic paints. Click here for WIP pictures!

French Fries are also made with polymer clay and coloured with chalks. Click here for the DIY tutorial!

Tray, plates, mustard and ketchup were all made with clay and subsequently varnished.

Milkshakes are made of casting resin (base and cup), silicone (whipped cream) and paper clips (straws). Click here for WIP pictures!

Frosty Palace's Menu was designed in Corel Photopaint. I've used this illustration for the snowman on the cover, and a scan from this site for the inside menu.

Cigarettes are made of clay and painted with acryilic paints, while the cigarette box was designed in Corel Photopaint. Click here for close-ups!

For the table, I used a square of thin plastic, painted it with black and silver acrylic paints to get the marble effect, and varnished it; lastly, I've placed it on top of a silver cardstock base.

I am seriously considering to register it as trademark and start selling them
(they would be healthy, nicotine-free, 100% chocolate cigarettes, of course! )

I don't have a tutorial for these, but they're quite simple to make! All you need is some white clay and a little bit of brown acrylic paint

OMG please tell me you're not saying it for laughs, because if that's true, it's the awesome-est thing I've ever heard. I almost want to start doing drugs/whatever just to enter one of those rehab centers. No kidding
