Default Nova Marine 24 CC Update....finally......

Wasnt going to post pics till it was done. (Call me superstitous) Last time I did...well, lets just say my life got chaotic. (Mildly)
But, today was a great day and things are going to start really moving quickly now, so what the heck.
We shot the White Primer over the Yellow High Build on the cap & around the hullsides, and oh my God...am I stoked.
The engine box (3rd pic) & console are about done. Box just needs some final fairing and a water channel, and the console some final coring inside.
There's been a few change of plans. The air vents....& I still havent decided on self-bailing or not. The mystery is: how she's going to sit in the water.
Stay tuned!

Self bailing it is.
Little more progress since the last post...heading towards the spray booth very soon.

Depth & reflectivity = Progress.
Console was a few weeks back, hullsides this weekend.
Apologies for the picture's lighting & background, it is atrocious. She was on her way out of the booth before I could get a pic. At least she doesnt blend in to her surroundings anymore over in a storage building.

More paint...more progress...Coming together now.
Heck, there was even some absurd discussion on the notion of throwing it in the water....like soon!

Slight progress....out from paint (for now), doing some rigging and thinking I might just make it out to Raystown this year......maybe.......







Keeping with the theme of plain & simple.
