Finished the surfboard and dug up a casting of a peace sign for the front emblem , it's actually the gun sight from a Swine Hunt . All that's left is to make some headlights and maybe an antenna .

Three weeks later I finally have some time to work on this again ! Two coats of primer . . . . . . and two light coats of some color followed by one coat of TS-13 Clear . Now to work on some decals . If all goes smoothly it takes two days to have finished decals , of course it never works that way .

Since this is a "Tooned" version of the Baja Bandito I started with a scan of the original decals . After resizing the murals they were printed on plain paper to be checked , then adjusted as needed , then printed on paper again . When they finally fit the smaller body I printed them on some decal paper along with some flowers grabbed from the web . It went very smoothly for a change and they're printed , sealed , and ready to be installed .

Decals are on . A couple small details to take care of before it gets cleared , then on to the final assembly .
