4D Fame Master Animal Puzzle - Elephant Touch Up

Hi all,

I managed to squeeze a couple of hours into touching up and repainting this elephant from Fame Master.

The seams are quite distracting, although as a puzzle figure this is normal.

After some Apoxie sculpt covering of the seams I did a repaint

There's a baby that comes with a base as a diorama but it was out of stock.   She'll have to do on her own for now.

Fantastic, the difference you made ! From a nice toy to an extraordinarily beautyful model , WOW !   

Great covering, although i don't like the sculpt in general. But this is not a problem of your fabulous work,of course!   

Absolutely beautiful again!

Many thanks Susanne, Philipp, and 4U!

Yes, my opinion is the same as yours Philipp. I did find the sculpts for most 4D master puzzles to be off at some part or another. There were other animals on the shelf that's why I only got this one because it's the closest though not the most accurate. The one with the lion chasing the oryx was a pity because the oryx was done well but the lion's face was cartoonish.

Wonderful!

That is so much better. Love the tusks you did   

  

Now this elephant looks phantastic          

Nice elephant Alvin! Good repaint! What are the sizes of this elephant? Is this same big as a Schleich one?

Awesome! I think he's handsome, you did a great job Congratulations on a "new"elephant, Alvin!

In the last picture you can see that it's standing next to the Collecta Spoonbill.
That figure is about 7 cm tall.
So this elephant is pretty tiny.

How did I miss this? Fabulous elephant, he looks so much better!

such a loveley fellow, you did a good job

This is fab Alvin, great work!

This is a big improvement! It will make a nice elephant for a tiny savanna.

It also re-inspired me. I had gotten two little cheap puzzle dinosaurs, full of seams, and considered filling in the gaps before painting, but wasn't sure. Seeing how nice this turned out, I think I may try that after all.
