So Davey went out into the sun and got some color. Unfortunately the bike shop called with the bill for the parts on his new bike and he just fell to pieces.

The Bike shop has been busy. Priming and the first coat of filler.

Hopefully the last coat of bondo before paint.

But how to paint it?

Right after the last coat of clear, the clamp slipped and the frame bounced off my leg and sock before hitting the cement. I picked it up expecting a furry, broken, nicked and scraped frame.

Amazingly, there is only a slight mar on the edge of the back fender, not bad enough to worry about.

It must be my lucky day.

Final assembly is getting close.

A little more paintwork, the eyes are very 3d looking, the pupil/iris is molded in a shape that is very realistic.

Davey is almost done, he got a little more detail paint, teeth, tongue and fingernails.I have the club logo designed for the jacket and hope to have it painted soon, then it's just a final fitment of the hands and some ballast in his butt to keep him from rolling over.

Without the flash and truer colors.
