Re: Travel Mate truck camper

been kinda slow on this, waiting for parts, got a couple things done. changed the vent grilles, cut all the glass for the windows, cut a door handle off an old ford exploder body for the rear door (still needs to be finished sanded), put on the corner bead

and the hardest part just made easy-graphics. bought some decal paper & bonder & printed my own. may be old hat for some people, but this is like rocket science to me. considering i only first turned a computer on 4 or 5 yrs ago, spent 2hrs trying to find PAINT & how to use it, i think they turned out not bad for a first ever attempt, didn't even screw up or waste decal paper (did sacrifice 'bout 10 sheets of reg. paper till i got what i wanted). my bird & sun graphics i will touch up the edges with green paint, they have no smooth curve lines, computer block edges
