Finish this one a couple of weeks ago. It was molded in red so I left it that way. The plastic polished up really nice so it’s nice and glossy.

Geoff: I use sharpie pens and paint markers to all the trim work. Saw this done on a you tube video. I just realized I did not blacken the grill. Will need to do that.

That's a Purdy Birdy John, great job. I love the baby Birds and Square Birds the best. I also enjoy seeing your guys builds, keeps me inspired lol.
