>DeLorean Headlights & Hood

>

Last night, I started beading my third Back to the Future DeLorean time machine. First, I stitched all my felt pieces together, then I stitched on some clear vinyl windows. Next, I beaded the headlights using silver-lined clear glass seed beads. I always seem to start on the headlights - they are a lot like the eyes on a person. ;)

For the hood, I'm using the same metallic glass bugle beads I got in Prague, as well as some Czech glass hex-cut beads. I'm also using matte-black twisted bugle beads because my goal is to make this car appear to be a lot darker than the first two. Hopefully, it will also appear to be covered in ice just like in the 1985 film. We'll see how that goes... :o

So far, I think it looks okay... ;)
