Roll up your sleeves

And break out the tools.  I'm done hee-ing and haw-ing, time to slap some epoxy on that body.  Got Pandora open, alllllll my refs close at hand, and *hopefully* a plan.


That is some nasty looking epoxy. 



Stop looking at me like that.


Please don't attach me to this end....


See y'all in a few hours.  XD

Best Idea EVER

I have a confession.  I am a terrible prepper.  It takes me months to do what good preppers do in a week.  I frequently prep, prinme, reprep, strip, prep again, etc.  Why?  Beacause I miss things like this.



Ok maybe not ones that bad, but I the dings, dents, holes, seams, I miss more than is reasonable. 

And then one magical day in the end of February, I stumbled upon Prep School.  Braymere I can't even begin to tell you how much EASIER this has made my life and my only regret is not thinking of it sooner!  So I pulled out one of my most difficult resins and gave him the marker treatment.

Note Shifu the cute creeper in the corner.  XD









This isn't even all of the spots on him that need to be fixed, just the holes and divots and whatnots.  After I fix these my circle attack will be on the bumps and burrs. 

Did I mention best idea ever?  Woot!!!

Another new face in the studio

If this guy from my last post is my muse, then this next figure must be my Studio Overlord.



It'll all be Nefertiti.. if you do it my way.

She's baaaaa-aaack. 

Also known as I have the best friends in the world who get my ridiculous facsination with this particular DamnYouAutoCorrect entry.  Ok maybe they don't get it, but they are willing to pick up a Nefertiti bust for my birthday to amuse me.  XD

So together they sit, my cute muse and my overloard, watching me as I sleep. 





Creepers.

Studio Muse!

Or maybe that should be Studio Cute? 


Say it with me, "D'AWWWWWW!!"

Is he not completely adorable?  I saw this guy a while ago on the Windstone website and I just had to find one for myself.  This is the Fennec Fox; there are three more pebbles foxes in the works and of course now I need one of each of those when they come out too.  Yesh.  Oh!  And he needs a name!  Ideas?  XD


Think of this post as your daily dose of random.  Also of me procrastinating putting epoxy on the jumper.


EDIT:  Cute bugger up there now has a name!  Shifu after the master karate red panda in Kung Fu Panda.  Love the name and the movies!  Thanks Susan B Young and Kismet Lodge!  Cookies for you!
