I cut the canopy from the model the other day and I said

to myself I would use it as a tool to make the canopy pattern.

When I removed it I found that some of the corners were

a little chipped off.

I placed some tape inside so it would really show it also acted as a

release so the clay wouldn't stick to the plastic.

I let the clay come over a bit and sanded it off later,

to get a nice sharp edge on the canopy part.

Now I have nice sharp edges.....and

a few pin holes to fill
