ORIGINAL PIECE





"THE AMAZON" MODEL KIT

Studio: Killing Time Kits
Designer & Sculptor: Alan Reeve
Builder & Painter: AntonyC
Release Date: 2004
Dimensions: 12" H x 8 3/4" W

Description:
This model kit featuring a Modern Age Wonder Woman suspended in flight originated as a solid resin casting in six pieces (see below - which Antony remembered to take after already attaching the right arm and left leg).

Before assembling the kit, Antony decided that, with all respect to the sculptor, the portrait seemed a bit swollen with an overly harsh expression. After many hours of sanding, shaping and re-sculpting, Wonder Woman received a virtual brow lift, cheek lift, nose job, dental work, select hair removal and overall hair re-shaping. These adjustments to the original sculpt softened the overall presence and readied the figure for a beautiful paint job with all metallic accents achieved from Antony's expert application of Bare Metal Foil. Button earrings were custom sculpted, painted and then added to the piece. Gold wire was shaped to make the lasso before attaching it to the utility belt.

The figure is mounted on a silver peg that attaches to a round base featuring the "stacked W" logo and stars.

No longer in production.
