Hello all. So, I decided I wanted to make a carnivorous plant to sit on my desk. Initially it was going to be a Piranha Plant from the Mario series, but as I was making it people kept saying, “You’re making a Little Shop of Horrors plant!” So I caved to public opinion and gave it a greener paint job. Main ‘body’ is a polystyrene egg covered in wall filler with a wedge cut out to achieve the open mouth. ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/sanityattack/1-3.jpg) Teeth are carved plasticard. I based the look on the teeth of the great white shark. ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/sanityattack/2-3.jpg) Tongue and gums are modelling putty. ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/sanityattack/Untitled.jpg) I wasted a lot of time and effort attempting to sculpt and cast leaves. In the end I gave up and bought fake leaves for the hobby shop. The base is just a plant pot with florists foam in it supporting everything. ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/sanityattack/4-3.jpg) ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/sanityattack/5-3.jpg) ![image](http://www.gbfans.com/images/pb/sanityattack/6-3.jpg) ---

It was just the “head” and the stem. The rest you had to add yourself, including finding the correct vintage coffee tin. ---

Careful with the tins. Thare are a few that looks almost the same. The one I used is the correct model.
