Foil duckling

Description

So for your first lesson... make a duck. It's not technically hard, you just pinch a head and beak, make a body, and tear some off on the underside for feet. BUT to make a first class foil duck, you have to look at a duck and study the anatomy. Pinch and press the foil to refine the shape 'till it really looks like a duck. He is about an inch and a half tall.

This guy has duckling wings without long flight feathers yet.

I made him in , like, a minute. I needed a quickie test piece to try painting with the fancy color shifting paint I have.
Generally, aluminum foil doesn't look too great if it is painted, but this paint color looks kinda nice. I gave him an undercoat of black first. He turns from turquoise to bright purple if you change the light direction!
