Lightning McQueen take FOUR

I'm going to have to do this on a couple of posts.. and get Flickr set up so I don't run into this problem again. But- here are the next 5 steps... It's all just detail work from here on out.

lights, lightning bolts, windows and red accents on tires.

rear view....

Eyes...

Lightning Bolts on sides and 95 on top... more discussion on this below


ok, I should have started to paint the details at this point. The color gradation on the number 95 and on the lightning bolts on the sides. Also on the eyes too, but I had some blue fondant to use so I went that route. I didn't have a few tools necessary to make that happen- a fine paint brush and vodka... and all the powder color for the lightning bolts. So I ended up just mixing yellow, orange and red fondant and rolling it out. It did the job, but didn't look amazing.
