Default Scale Lantern I made...

After a few painstaking hours this is what I end up with....Thoughts?...

I didn't sculpt this from any particular lantern. It's just the image that came to mind. Then I went with the coleman theme. I even found some glow in the dark yellow paint. So it really does light up. I just can't get a good pic to prove it. Anyways, ENJOY!

I used some clay stuff that you harden by baking (name escapes me at the moment). Basically it started as just a bullet shape and I used my dremmel and just carved away at it. The fuel cap and the flame adjustment knob are actually drops of solder.
