I started to convert this model a while ago to hold the picnic basket for Almira, but the hands were badly mangled and I didn't feel up to trying to resculpt them around the handles of the picnic basket, so I ditched the idea and set Moth aside in the bits box. While trying to figure out what to do for my sister-in-law for a Christmas present this year, I pulled out Moth and asked my husband to make a little box for me out of plasticard. I resculpted the hands and am fairly happy with how they turned out. I also entered her in the Reaper Winter Wonderland painting contest.
