harvey boyer Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 Well I was planning on adding a bunch of red dry transfers, but going back over ref pics I have, seems there we're not a whole lot of stencils on them. I still might "fake " a few just to brake all the black up, just small ones..............Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harvey boyer Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 I have some sad news friends. I won't be posting for a bit. My sweet mom died Sunday evening. This week is really sucking bad. Family is here from 3 states and no funeral, but a memorial mass is tomorrow morning. I will be back, but not for a week. Thanks to for supporting me and following along......Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey boyer Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 I'm happy to report that since my life has been crap for a while, Got out of my funk for a bit and treated myself to a little bench time today. I managed to complete the prop blades and getting ready for paint. That is if we can get a little warmer weather around here. As always, critiques , comments welcome............Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Well done Harv. For those us who know, your life has indeed been a load of crap dumped on you from a height so ... this is fantastic news, and it's good to hear you've mananged to get the props looking so good. Take care mate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey boyer Posted December 8, 2013 Author Share Posted December 8, 2013 Thank you Grant. Your a good friend ! And glad you approve ............Harv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey boyer Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Right ! Have an update finally. Took some bench time today, and have the props 99% done. I think one more coat of Dullcoat on the blades and that should do it. Had a little trouble with both paint sticking and also decals. Mostly my fault. I can't believe that next week will be 4 years since this started. But I'm one step closer. Thanks to all of you for sticking with me. You all have helped me along this loooong journey. So here you go...........Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harvey boyer Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Its been a while, but managed to do a little work. No pics, but finished the side glass.
