ruins a laser printer and learns to hand-letter.
After priming and basecoating, I laid on the stripes.
Partial explanation here: I have no idea what a Gort Beast is supposed to be. But it looks like a big bug. Well... what do you paint a bug? Like a bug? Or like a Bug? (The husband suggested Herbie.)
At any rate... I re-did the numbers a few times until I was happy.
And then there were the daisies. (They went away.)
Added a darker skin to the beast, and got rid of the flowers. I added "chrome" details, and started on the strapping.
Next was Libby.
I blocked in a metal bra and the red, white and blue colors to match the Gort Beast.
