Pic of the Day Fausto Coppi figurine

Just a trio of quick pics today - earlier this month my friend Noel made a Jester figurine for me out of Sculpey, and we started talking about caricatures, which she'd never tried before, so as an experiment I loaned her some of my magazines and books and asked her to try making a model of Fausto Coppi. Here's the result:

My camera doesn't do Macro very well, thus the pics don't really do it justice.

The figure sits about four inches high, and is about the right size to display with the Protar model racing bikes.

I'm trying to talk her into modeling Gino Bartali next, then maybe Jean Robic :-)
