    Default Popper Time


    This is my first popper. I started with a hard foam popper and painted it. The first time I painted it, I'm not sure why, but the waterproof markers would not dry, even after about 20 hours. I came home from work and thought a few minutes. I wiped it down and used fingernail polish. The polish doesn't look as good as the markers did, so I will try again and see what may have happened.

    Lookimg good! Just make sure you don't add too much on the rear feather wise because if too heavy when wet it will not sit right! Just an FYI as I know first hand about that!

    Not happy, went to get surgery and some emergency came in and I got pushed back and after 4 1/2 hours of being cold and back not great, I told them to take out the IV and I will reschedule! Glad you got it!

    Thanks for asking,

    I finished this one. I snuck some satin in there. It sticks out just enough.
