The Mad Professor

The Crazy Scientist at work is the subject of many films and books. This is the 2nd of these figures I've made...he's 12th scale and ooak.

He has 'steampunk' style goggles 

and various other pieces of mysterious equipment

 in his coat and apron and hanging from his person

A green version :o)

He's one of two figures recently completed for a commission.

Non Sine Sole Iris

Inspired by the painting of Elizabeth the 1st in 'The Rainbow Portrait' of c1600

12th scale OOAK figure dressed in orange silk and other vintage fabrics.

with my daughter claiming sanctuary c 2004

I did this very thing with my mum with the original in the late 1960s

Stephenson's "Rocket"

This is a 00 gauge model made up from a Dapol kit...

re-run of the old Airfix one.

It is sitting on a bit of 'track' I made from mixed-materials.

An old collector card of the Rocket as she was in later years of service.

decided not to use the large retaining button...which means if you run it along a bit vigorously the rod comes off the wheel...but no worries! The little pistons move with the wheels!

unfortunately the dapol kit is grey...the Airfix used to come in a yellow you could leave I guess. As I was using acrylics, this meant I had to prime the whole thing with a light coat first.

Adenoid Hynkel

Patsy from Monty Python and the Holy Grail

12th scale ooak figure inspired by 'Patsy', the King's servant, from 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail'

The Wheel of the Year
