The last couple of days I have been working on the paint scheme. I could
bore you with the decision of what color to make her dress,
but this is what I settled on. I still have to touch up the eyes and poly coat the entire thing, but for now, I put two coats of paint on her, sanding between coats. She looks rather bold and bright, but I know that she will "dull" a bit as time goes by. Over all, I'm pleased with the way she turned out. Of coarse I see all the flaws in her as blaring,
but I'm willing to forgive a little and be done with her. Cheryl says she will look good in the front yard with the other women.
As for the remainder of the evening, I worked on some origami Roses with pure colored paper. the pure color allows me to just fold and not bother with gluing the finished flower up. Enjoy!
