This time the subject is the Lovik figure I'm refurbishing. I've taken the little guy apart and cleaned him up a bit. I repaired the hole in his upper lip. I've disconnected the spring and removed his jawpiece. The brass axle was secured with hot glue, so I've peeled away the old glue. I drilled two holes in his forehead for installing raising eyebrows. I've also repainted his face and jaw with three coats of acrylic so far.
