We had the pleasure of attending the celebration of the 60th wedding anniversary a pair of of Essex longest serving G scalers.
Don and Evelyn have about 5 open days each year despite their progressing years and a good time is had by all at each of their days.
Don's layout was the first that I visited before I embarked on my own efforts. It was an inspiration and he always was patient with me as i was 'puppy-like' in firing tons of questions his way.
As a thank you, my other half, after seeing Tony's success with making figures, said that i should make a little 'thing' for the two anniversary folk.
After much ripping off of unsuccessful head detail , accidents with figures falling onto their face in the oven and much swearing when making the glasses this is what I managed to make. I had the use of three photos of the subjects. It was my first attempt at using polymer clay (Fimo)
A lot of silver spray paint was used!
