    Some more work done.
    Backplate made & pre-fitted.
    First phase of carving and power sanding done.
    Next phase will be the rasps, then the inevitable hand sanding through the grits . . .
    BTW I'm still working on getting webbing to shoot out of its (ahem) spinneret.

    The body has now been worked/sanded down to 400 grit and given a slurry coat of Timbermate. This is an idea I saw on a Utube demo - much easier to apply & clean up, dries much faster and of course it doesn't stink like acrylic spray putty. The result after a light 400 sanding - virtually the same.
    Dusting coat & first coat of satin black sprayed on - this will get sanded back between the next few coats.
    Those stubby legs might need some help . . .
