Left Leg

South Main Project: Update 26

Left leg

I have had a great week of work in the studio. The left leg is nearing completion.

I'm off to baseball practice, then I'm taking everyone to see Speed Racer. I expect the kids will love it. I'm looking forward to the Clone Wars trailer debut in front of the movie, and will enjoy watching the kids enjoy themselves during the feature.

Looks great! I would love to see a photo of either you or the kids to get an idea of the size she is.

Speed Racer was a disappointment. .

I'll take a picture with me in it to show you the scale
