I made him responsible for shaping and painting the car, and I focused on the carving/sculptural elements. I carved the lower body of Mickey Mouse and then sculpted the upper body and Head seperately using a clay compound that hardens like rock. The only problem I am running in to, is that the clay in very heavy. I have really had to pay attention to the weight. Pinewood derby cars can not weigh more than 5 ounces. I will try to publish pictures when I am finished.
