My rats in order from left. Bone-o-rat. Rot-o-rat, Back-o-rat, Gut-o-rat and Cat-o-rat.
What I did.
bone-o; I used white paint.
rot-o; used white fun fir and green paint
back-o; cut the back off. filled the hole with wadded up paper towels and painted then green blue and red. Then added
cardboard strips to make exposed ribs and a back bone and painted them white. Lightly drybrushed light green paint on the
face and body to make it stand out more.
gut-o; cut everything off from the back of the head but the front feet and a strip holding the tail. Painted the outside
light green and the inside red.
cat-o; glued on fun fir in blotches and painted the areas in-between red. Also painted on some exposed ribs.
Just use what you got. It's easy, cheep and fun. Gets more attention than just plane black rubber rats.
