Hi
I am working on my first custom Dunnys. I have some fun ideas I want to try. I hope I can execute them half as well as some of the great work I have seen on these boards.
Here are some teaser pics of my first.

I look forward to seeing how you work the ears onto the golf ball... and are you going to try flocking for the grass? I like the idea so far.

Diakka00 · **Posted:** Tue Apr 20, 2010 7:31 am

Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Floyd 44 · **Posted:** Tue Apr 20, 2010 7:36 am

Thanks UNCLE, I should have pics up by tonight. I think the ears came out pretty cool almost to a tee

I did not use flocking. I have used the stuff on architectural models before and am not a big fan. I might try it sometime in the future.

Thanks. This is just my first of many. I need to make a run to the art store to get a couple more things and am waiting for some accessories to arrive in the mail for some other ideas.

Hole In Dunny
This is my first of many custom Dunnys

All feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Thanks

Pretty dang good. The tee could stand to be a little shorter, so it matches the ear though... and it may look bettrer to have the flag in his hand, so it doesn't look like he was gored

Nice job over all.

Floyd 44 · **Posted:** Tue Apr 20, 2010 8:23 pm

Thanks UNCLE,
I played around with the placement of the flag and thought it looked better impaling him rather than in his hand.

I should have some pics of a new custom up sometime tomorrow.

i Really like this. I would have put a thin layer of clay over the ear and used a backside of paintbrush or something to put little half sphere dents in it to match the golfball texture, and put a back wall on the bottom of the hole, maybe with a tiny golfball in it, but i think you did a nice job. Btw floyd, new Clear icebat pics in my thread

Very very cool. I like dunnys with "dunny parts" replaced so to speak

How did you make the club?

Rasa · **Posted:** Tue Apr 20, 2010 9:03 pm

looks like a mini accessory from something else, or mini bought from dollhouse mini type deal, or toy golf club id imagine.

Floyd 44 · **Posted:** Tue Apr 20, 2010 9:13 pm

Thanks guys.
Yes the golf club is from the dollhouse / craft aisle of Michaels

I thought of trying to match the ball but I figured I wouldn't be able to match it exactly and I didn't want to risk it looking strange.

Diakka00 · **Posted:** Tue Apr 20, 2010 9:53 pm

Pretty neat. Reminds me of the Epcot center.

Thanks. Nah I think he is roasted. I don't think the smorkin thermometer would do too well in the deep fryer.

New Custom Skull Fracture - Snowboarder.

Diakka00 · **Posted:** Mon Apr 26, 2010 7:05 pm

looking good. I'd take some black or dark brown and define those cracks on his skull a little more. just paint inside them with the dark color.

Thanks,
I might do that. The crack is much more pronounced in person. The light from the flash really screws up the depth. Man I really need a light box.

Posted this in the showoff section but since you are looking for a lightbox:

Pretty good job. Not sure how I feel about the toothbrush though...

Thanks UNCLE. The toothbrush was kind of the inspiration for the whole thing. I was brushing my teeth and thought that would make a great dunny ear. This one is not used though.
