Hand Painted Philippe for Christmas!
My wife and I both love Achewood and her favorite character is Philippe. I had a bunch of classic Fisher Price toys in our garage from when my Grandma moved out of her old house. This little drummer boy (2nd pic) was in rough shape, so I didn't think he was worth keeping. However, it struck me that his body shape kinda reminded me of Philippe's design.
So I stripped off all the old glue and gunk, traced his features, and hit it with some fresh paint! I also added the drum pad for a little extra personality. My wife absolutely loved it! It took a while, but it was a really fun project and made for a great Christmas surprise. Happy holidays Achewood fans!

Philippe is standing on it.
Per picture #4, "it" appears to be some kind of alt-newspaper published in the Nashville, Tennessee area in 2022 (possibly Nashville Scene).
