Title: Filled feeding bowl (for small animals)
Post by: Little Jo on May 08, 2006, 06:36:49
A quite similiar approach like for the hot coals (http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=547.0); this time I used the popcorn from e.g. the small zoo (3243 (http://www.collectobil.com/catalogue/items/3243.htm)).

A filled bowl with water can be customized just simply with filling the bowl with glossy transparent paint -- looks better in real life than here on the photo.

This filling procedure has to be done several times because the thinner evaporates  and the capacity is less than originally when the bowl has been filled completely).

BTW, these are my PlaymoWorld (http://www.jr-x.de/playmobil/) equivalents of our six real-life house rabbits

Very cool Jochen,
Is it ok to add this picture to Animobil too? It's very nice and all customs. :)

I have plans for a gallery section also for scenes or stories involving animals that are more elaborate than just the profile pics. Hopefully get to that in a month or two.

Sure, you can use it. If you need another resolution/size, please let me know.

Regarding the scenes gallery section: oh, this is a nice idea. So I think I already have a contribution to this: "Fixing up a rhinoceros' tail (http://www.jr-x.de/playmobil/customizing/fixingtail.html)" with two photos.

Neat idea! :D

And the Playmo bunnies look so sweet! Just like their real-life counterparts. :yup:

Thanks for the pics and the tips on how we can make our own filled pet bowls! :)

Excellent work and very realistic as allways Jochen. I had a go at creating water with gloss varnish once but that was a few years ago when i was into model Wargaming.

Kindest Regards  Tim
