A 1:1 Scale Figure

About a year ago, we bought a garden gnome.  Not just any gnome, but a cast-iron beast of a gnome from Costco.  According to the box, his name is Brumbiddle.  Now, Brumbiddle is a really excellent gnome.  Unfortunately, his paint proved rather susceptible to fading.


















So, I decided to repaint him, with craft-paints which are supposedly meant for outdoor use.  This took a bit longer than I expected, but here he is at last, restored to gnomish glory.
