DIY 4mm/00 people - Part 4

Here is the middle aged wife for the balding man in Part 2&3 of this series. I used the monk's head from the mould as I did not have any other suitable. Since the monk is bald it allows me to fashion a hair style. Slithers of FIMO were laid on the scalp for the hair and the face proded about to vary the features.

I'm showing very close up pictures here. On the model railway at normal viewing distances I hope that defects and ugliness will be less noticeable!

My model railway is set in the first half of the 1960s. Who would have thought that in making this model I would find myself learning about period fashion. The lady is wearing a typical "1950s blush pink shirt style dress". 1950s lady fashion spilled over into the 1960s. Mini-skirts did not come on the scene until the second half of the decade.
