We are the hollow men…no longer

 After a very productive gardening session I decided to tackle these fellows-



I took the photos to remind myself of the damage they started off with. Here they are after judicial use of pva and tissue paper. Matchsticks were needed for one cowboy prior to doing the next stage of work. One figure is still untouched as I think of any other techniques to use on him as he is in a particularly bad way.

    A noble and fulfilling task. They look like they have been air gun targets. (Nice TS Eliot quote - geek points).

      Well spotted re reference. I never thought of the target theory but looking at them it makes perfect sense.

    Thanks, it is , surprisingly so, but not upon reflection. I like the idea of giving them another chance on the playing mats of Tradgardland.
