We are taking my wife back in the morning as she is a hospital employee.. and alos hope to rescue our dog's if we are allowed in at all.

I did have the forsight to bring almost all of my current orders, and some of my paint and airbrushes.

please, if you guy's hear of anyone asking about me, let them know our circumstances.

I will make every effort to get all work completed as soon as i can, but we have to get our lives together first.

I will try to keep in touch..

Wedjim- brough the mask with me and wil have some time to play with it so it seems.. and thanks! for the help.
Well we all hope everything is still in one piece .But the main thing is you and your family are safe.

Looks good. I heard something about you putting some roof scratches on your other one.

Any idea what I should try to stop the dusting?
FWR,

The "dusting" you are getting is due to static built up in the body. You can fix this by putting down a very light dust coat of the yellow in the front where you want the pure yellow color. Or, I have also heard of some success using spazstix surface prep before painting the faded color.

Hope this helps...

Are those custom masks or off the shelf?
You have one steady Xacto blade hand if they are custom!
