Rebuilding a Barbie's torso
Posted: Wed May 22, 2013 1:35 pm
Awhile back I won an auction on an old 1997-9(?) Olympic Skater Barbie and Ken set. It was that set where Barbie had a spinning mechanism built into her. I took her apart to remove the mechanism and now I'm left with a bit of a gap in her torso.
I have the idea of turning her into a Steampunk cyborg type girl but I'm stuck as to how I can make a stable filler into her torso. I'm not really able to buy anymore clay right now, so I have to exclude that option. I'm looking to build something within that gap that is stable and wont break; can anyone help me with some ideas?
(i had this in custom creations before I realized that was probably not where it would be most visible I have been gone too long)
