Model Topiary

Daughter number one has been making some model topiary out of clay with/for me  today-
It is air drying so I will need to be patient for some days. In the picture is a late 17th century Front Rank figure for scale and inspiration. When dry I will paint and varnish the topiary  not to mention the pond. After that some pictures with figures...

  1. Neat idea! Is that Poseidon in the pond-fountain?

  3. Very nice! Looking forward to seeing how they look all painted up. Should make for some nice landscapes/gardens.

  4. Whenever I hear or read "topiary" I can't help thinking about The Shining (the book, more than the movie).
