Hi All
Hope everyone had a awesome Christmas.
Haven't built much lately as the 1:1 has been snarfing up my time and money.
Doing the electrics now so not to far away.
Anyhow a good friend of mine has been diagnosed with bowel cancer.
We started this kit together 10 years ago as he hadn't built a model before.
Ended up getting thrown on the pile.
Once I found out about his condition I remembered this kit and decide to finish it for him.
Put it on a base as well.

Nice work Rodger, I hope your buddy fights the big C and enjoys the build. Is the wrap around glass part of the kit or is that a custom piece?

Superb! I'd not seen one of those before in kit form.

Hi Bert
On Chemo for the rest of his life and has a bag now.
Over the moon when I gave it to him.
Totally box stock.
A Bear to build.

Thanks Paul
Brought a case for it and thought it looked a bit bland.
A friend of mine has a resin business and makes these.
Footpath is Gyprock with the paper pealed of one side.
I think you guys call it Dry Wall.
