Hello Michael:

This is coming along nicely.  I like the Betty Scheme and yours is looking the part.  Great job on the staining.  It might be too late, but one more method for tightening lines is the old hair drier.

Best

Well the pup is finished  :)

a bit rough around the edges with plenty of room for improvement  ;)

many thanks to all who have contributed to the build with help, advice and tips etc...

the super detail set was a bit of a waste of money for me, though the wood decal is a nice addition.

i will post some pictures of betty in the completed section when i finish work on the base i'm building for her.











cheers

   Michael,
Outstanding Pup my friend. One thing though if she has rough edges they're invisible. Congratulations and Well Done.
Highest Regards,

Very nicely done Michael. I did a Pup in a nearly identical scheme (Baby Mine with a red cowl) and really like your choice. Supurb weathering, I like this one a lot!

She's a real beauty Michael. Your rib shading on the tail is superb!
