Default A Bolt From The Blue

I've done pieces like this one several times in the past and they've always proved really popular. This time I really burnt the hat up with my propane torch to give the appearance that he really got zapped. Even put a few blisters on his head. Hope you like it. More photos in the Blog Gallery.
