plasticbuddha | 14-Aug-07 00:57 | Don't have much time at the bench today but some progress. Stripped off the balsa edges and replaced them with solder after all. Blended the solder with the balsa with some dabbed on filler/primer. Several spray coats of filler/primer still to go as the wood grain is still visible (argh!!). I'm sorely tempted to break out the Evergreen styrene just to save the added work!!! The seat cushion was painted with flat red enamel and then lightly buffed to simulate vinyl. Hold down straps are strips of masking tape. Painted the label with a 000 brush and white paint thinned with mineral spirits. |

poppy | 14-Aug-07 06:29 | And I thought I added a lot of detail. I'm with CD, can't wait to see the rest. |
