Ok so this is it before I did anything with it, as you can see it is very sun bleached and has a few cracks and holes... I actually got some very thick glass like spray clear coat for this very reason. I wanted it to hold up well once I was done with it.
For starters I scrubbed it as best as I could (plastic was kinda brittle) and then I covered the holes with some glued on cardboard.
Then next I started painting!!! I used acrylic paint, first painted it completely brown.. well more of a brown/orange. Then from there I added white and black (after the brown is dry!) and then the eyes last. It turned out great and pretty easy!! I just looked at a picture off the web for guidance of colors and spots :)
The cardboard doesn't look perfect but at least they're not gaping holes anymore.
I Love what the clear glossy spray coat did for it! Looks great and should last a long time back outside!!!
