I've caught the surfin' bug so I'm building another surfer to go with the Surfink! This one is the Hot Dogger from the Silly Surfers. Here's the first shots of his body, I'll do the shorts later and the board on Saturday. I tried to give him a slight sunburn across the shoulders and on his nose to make him appear as though he's been out in the sun a lot. The wave has some fit issues I'm solving. Comments welcome, enjoy!

Hot Dogger is together! I have a couple of little things to do, like gloss coat the eyes and teeth, but he's done. I'll get his stick painted tomorrow, I'm still trying to figure out a design. Again, comments welcome!

Your airbrush work is supreme. You make that figure just pop with a realistic 3dness. I totally impressed and I too am a Ramchargers fan

Nice! I got all of their autographs at the Autorama in Detroit last year. It was pretty cool!

I had the surfboard almost done and when I pulled the tape off of the final time before clear, tragedy struck! The paint came off with the tape! It happens sometimes. I'll redo it later this week.

Beautiful airbrush work!!!! Now if you could just airbrush a six-pack on my stomach??!!!! ;D ;D ;D No problem! You want Bud, Miller, PBR, or Schlitz? It might look pretty silly without a pizza beside it, but hey, whatever you want! Thanks guys! I really appreciate it, I hope to have the board done soon, the wave is already done.

Here's the wave, his board is giving me fits! After the tape incident, I stripped it then went to repaint it and there is some very visible body work where I removed the crab from his board. I think my filler shrank because I tried to hurry to get it done. While I'm waiting for it to cure, I'm working on a '49 Merc. Anyway, here's the wave he'll be riding.
