Pics & First Blood

Postby Shazza » Thu Apr 02, 2009 12:27 am

Okay... Here are some pictures... and Glennnnn don't worry, I have faith you will eventually start. I was lurking for a year and a half before I joined the forum and have been a member since June of last year and am just barely getting going!

So I have officially christened my trailer with First Blood! Hopefully nothing much worse than this with the rest of the build. :worship: Image

Here is the trailer half put together with my sweet teddy bear.. He says he'll help me if I ask for it.. So far have just needed him to help me turn the thing over.. lol Image

Here is the trailer finished except the axle and tires..

Taaaa Daaaa!! :lol:

building in the living room is one of my favorite places (now I can only build in the family room). I once even ran a router in the house (before I had a garage! :lol:

Can't wait to see lots of photo's of your build as it progresses.

I have just started mine too on the other side of the pond!

Good luck and have lots of fun and take loads of photos.

Paper models are great until you stick your fingers to the model with the superglue........ <img src="http://i723.photobucket.com/albums/ww231/bwhistance/webani/flag_s1_country_uk_01.gif" border="0" alt="union flag"><img src="http://i723.photobucket.com/albums/ww231/bwhistance/webani/flag_s1_country_england_01.gif" border="0" alt="st george">
