So I finally got my Munny Mobile done on time- it was about 2:00 in the morning when I finished up- many many thanks to my lovely Sean for keeping me on track and cracking the whip!
Here's how it all turned out!
The night was lots of fun with plenty of people coming and going and I scored some event badges and a Munny Zipper Pull, The king of ice cream, which was awesome as I saw plenty of people get Ice cream or Banana only- Boring!

Oh man! I have to finish my Munny Mobile by Thursday because I have a show to put it in on Friday- FEK FEK FEK, I'm completely freaking out.... Please can someone say something to calm me down - I'm stuck here (work) untill 5:30 and there isnt a thing I can do to my Mobile until I get home tonight, I have work for the rest of the week too... fek fek fek! I started out so well, but then the Bart Qee and the FreQee got in the way... I'm so over customs!
Anyway, here's a sneak peek of what it looks like at the moment, it may look like this when I put it in the show if I don't get my crap together and finish the thing on time!
fek!

In my previous ' Munny Development' post I showed you all photos of how I dyed it, now here is installment one of how to thread hair. (So far so good... fingers crossed)
The upcoming dates for the FreQee Exhibition have been confirmed and the posters and invitations are about to go out... How exciting!
The FreQee exhibition will be at the Brisbane Powerhouse from the 27th of August to the 8th of September with the opening night on the 31st... I hope to get over there as it promises to be a fantastic night!
More information to come (there will be an official press release sent out in the next couple of days.)
I'll be posting photos of my creation as soon as I can...
I’m working on a custom Munny Mobile for a show that’s coming up soon and I decided that I wanted my Munny to be purple.
I would usually use paint for this - but I hate the paint strokes and all the cracking and drying time involved so I thought I would try my hand at dyeing my Munny!After a little bit of research I found a thread on the Kid Robot forum that had all the instructions on how to do this - and although it was really useful, it didn’t have any of the technical details I was looking for, this meant I had to wing it and pray that I didn’t completely ruin my exhibition piece!
The following is the process I used/made up. Enjoy! (And forgive the mess on my stove - it’s not mine, I’m rarely home- seriously!)
This post has moved! You can find it on my new blog- Here!

This is a custom Trexi I have made for the Plastic Pimps 2 exhibition, it's called "A Girls Best Friend"
It's soft and friendly but will also
kick anyones ass who hurts its owner/woman!
Paint= Enamel model kit paint
