Bonnet ( hood ) Mascot


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

When building a 1:24 scale Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud by either Minicraft or Revell, the Spirit of Ecstasy hood mascot is way too big at 10 mm. This is excessively large and quite ridiculous really. They have the same size mascot at 10 mm on the Franklin Mint diecast version too. Now I have purchased a donor kit, which is an Italeri 1934 Rolls-Royce Phantom II, also 1:24 scale, and the hood mascot is absolutely the correct size at 4 mm. Trouble is, now that I have used the Italeri mascot on my Minicraft build the donor kit has no mascot. I tried moulding and casting a Spirit of Ecstasy in Milliput Black but it failed badly. Does any one know of a clever way to reproduce this important part for the Rolls-Royce build?
