This is my first payed build.Gave it to him the other day at work.A friend of mine that all the headaches I went thru on this build would be worth it when I saw the clients appreciation.He was right.Philip,the one who I built this for,was smiling from ear to ear.Kept having co-workers stop by his machine and showing them.Personally I can see a few flaws that I had but he is as happy as a pig in mud and that's all that matters.These are the only 2 pics I got before I took it to him.

 

This is the AMT kit that has the yellow and white Coke decals with it.Started out hating this build but the further I got on it the more I liked it.

Good one, Mate.  I like it.  Very nice.

Yeah...I know what you mean about the feeling when you give it away.  I've been building contract builds for years...and it never ceases to touch me when they see their new pride and joy when I hand it over...the smile on their face, and knowing that it's going to be something they'll treasure for years to come.  Makes the headaches worth it.

Cheers, LeeTree
