First I want to thank eyewave for his modeling qualities. Second a big Thank You to Georg Wendt for supplying the idea.

And of course thanks to all voters and commenters.

Taking this shot was horrible, the little painters always fell from the face and I was too dumb to place them
a the correct spots again. Besides that the make up was hard to handle, but that was not my fault.

Wow - has any couple in DPC history ever got 1st and 2nd place in the same contest with pictures of each other before ?

Must be a happy household - many congrats to you both :- )

Wow, this is good!

I followed the George Wendt link and didn't find the 'little figurine' images, only standard, beautiful, photographs. Where is his stuff like this? Is this railroad characters? H0 scale?

I was wondering who the pair was with the nifty face "mountains" - it didn't dawn on me that it was probably you and Oliver! Brilliant idea and excellent execution! And congrats on the Blue! (The two pictures make a nice set!)

What a unique idea, and how bizarre two of you had it. My only suggestion for a possible improvement is to keep part of the skin clear, which may have an even greater impact.
