  Flying Hellfish Montgomery Burns
As I finished the Abe Simpson, I thought it would be cool to do some of the other characters from the episode and maybe even a playset to display them on.



Burns started with the basic figure with the hair, waist and trouser cuffs Dremeled off.



Using the Aves epoxy putty, I started building the collar, hair and fatigue pants.



The next putty layer consisted of pockets and the sweater draped over his shoulders.




And then finally the sweater sleeves hanging down the front.



In the episode Burns spoils Abe Simpson's shot at Hitler with a stray tennis ball. I cut small sections of wire and held the vertical and horizontal sections together with masking tape. I crossed the two sections and then added a drop of CA glue at the intersections. After that dried, the wires were cut to fit the styrene frame.





The final painted figure. I added a laser decal for his shoulder rank.

These are all the dumb things I find myself obsessed with building when I SHOULD be doing something more productive.

As a kid I built lots of plastic model kits, never knowing that one day those skills would actually be of use.
