A bright blue car is turning heads in the on a London street this week. It isn’t a suped-up roadster though: it is a 1.5 ton replica Chevelot Orlando made out of Play-Doh modelling clay.
Created to mark the launch of the Chevrolet Orlando, eight model makers spent two weeks crafting the seven seater replica. It took the putty from over 10 000 pots of Play-Doh, and a spokesperson for the project is quoted as saying: “We’ve pretty much exhausted the UK supplies of aquamarine Play-Doh.”
The masterpiece will be parked on the street for the next week, but there is no word on how the public art installation will be prevented from drying out or how young children will be prevented from “sampling” the bright blue dough.
