Default The hiatus is over!

While I was on a job in Stratford, Ontario (hometown of Justin Bieber, yes, really) this week, "The Vixen" went to town on the Betty Boop rocket and worked on the hair and face.

I know now that this can probably never be made to resemble the "Betty Boop" character--mainly because of the shape of the face, so I'll call it "Betty Boost".

Besides, now I won't have to worry about getting sued by King Features!

Well, never thought I'd say this about a rocket, but.... nice cleavage!

Hm. With a "build" like that... the aerodynamics could be compromised. As well as other near-by "Spacemen."

The missus did good. The hair is the clincher.

"The Vixen" thanks you!

The build is almost finished. I'll add some embellishments to the base next: "Pudge" the white dog, some hearts, some flowers, etc.

Default and................................Voila!

"BETTY BOOST" IS FINISHED!!

I decided against adding the dog.

"The Vixen" cut a bunch of flowers and butterflies from old greeting cards and I glued then around the base.

The rocket and stars tramp stamp was "The Vixen's" idea (she worries me sometimes.)

Thanks for watching.

Thanks,
