I think you 'll like it . Good quality for the price. My plan is to prime today,( that is the plan). I still have the TE2 and a MRCE on stand by if this one doesn't look right when I'm done. It is just a little smaller in overall size.

I'll try to keep posting as "I move along". :D

Later all.

TE2 got his ears on, and so did the ATA today. Wet sanded for the third time and now primed and ready...(I hope to paint).

Waiting on the weather. Getting closer though.

I'm sure you are going to like it. Did you ask for it to be in black? He told me that he can actually get better pulls from the black HIPS. I had some shoulder bells pulled in black while he did my helmet. They turned out cool. I thought I would add them to the look of the FX. I'll wait and see when it's all together.

I have to work over the weekend so the helmets are on hold. Running out of time, but I should just make it. ( I hope!!)

More later,

I'm really doing the best I can, time is getting away from me and I really need him done for Halloween. ("of course") Back to work, so that leaves evenings to get it all done. I hope to leave them alone for another day then I'll get to the Hovies and the teeth. It's amazing how many little things add up to the whole.

I'm not sure if I can make the show but I sure would like too. I'll know more as the weekend gets closer.


Tune in again...............
