Torso Progress Report Part 3

This was the final week of working on the torso. It's finished at this point!!  It was a lot of hard work, but as in everything in life, if it's worth doing - you will have problems to overcome.  The thing is, this torso was made this way.  Mike had his fiberglass guy made the torsos back then with this version of texture.  It took a lot of sanding and spot putty to final get to the finish that I wanted before it will get it's new finer texture.

Here's the picture!

Sanding in progress - you can see the spots that I had to use spot putty and have been sanded smooth.

Wet sanded with 400 grit and ready for another coat of primer filler.

Finally, the results that I have been working for!!

Close up of the torso surface - what a difference - see the next picture.

I had thought that this was going to take a month to get done.  I have to say that working at B9Creations has improved my skills and made a better builder out of me.  Thanks Mike!

That's it for now.
