1:12 scale, about 4" high, it’s made of a mix of materials. There’s cotton lace, copper chain, bright aluminum wire, jewelry findings, glass beads, and paper clay for the candles.
Pix along the way:
the base; lace hand stitched with gross black thread and stiffened with glue, wires and beads and chain
I’m debating electrifying it. I have LED string lights and a plastic straw to use for candles. But the scene is Zorro sneaking around, so I think the candles have all been blown out.
This is so cool, I love that you shared the before picture. Great job with the whole item. And about the lights, as you said, he’s sneaking around, better leave them off XD
I just meant it would have looked better with white thread. I knew it was getting painted, so grabbed the first threaded needle that came to hand. It looks like frankenlace.
