Garden Turtle

#1 Post by android »

I repainted this garden turtle for a friend at work.
It's been outdoors for 10 years and was faded to nothing.

He's moving to a new house and wanted to get it back in good shape.
The back was hand painted with transparent brown sprayed to even it out.

He got several coats of Krylon UV Resistant clear.

The turtle is about 8" tall.

Very nice! Your paintwork really gives it a lot of character.
