When's the "official" end? I have one floating around, but I want to finish up my backlog first!

I have many books and my Lair smells of rich mahogany!!! Stay thirsty my fellow MOJOs!

Looking very good!  Is that 1/48th scale?

Windscreen attached...

As with the canopy, the fit doesn't imbue me with enthusiasm, I think the hairline gaps around the base will stand filling with clear parts cement, by capillary action.

Next job, I can assemble the wheels, the hubs are already sprayed, so when the mask set arrives I can get to the tyres. I was hoping to pick it up tomorrow...

Cheers, M/TB379

 Hercmech:

Thanks!

I have become quite fond of the Time cover. You look particularly regal on it.

 

A little sucking up is okay, but don't over-do it. Wink

C'mon now...I learned my lesson from when I got the Time cover in the first place. In case you forgot...

I think I made a comment like..."A little sucking up is okay, but don't over-do it" Cool

 Manstein's revenge:

 Hercmech:

It just occured to me that I have never posted pictures of my HO in this forum. While I am not a member of the GB, I finished my HO a few months before Manny asked to start it, but I lurk enough. So here you go you mojos!

 

 

 

 

Claim your badge, MOJO...

 

Wow... thank you sir!

Now... which one of you (my fellow Mojo's) has the badge

Oh, and you can also reclaim your "229 Cross" and keep the Time cover if you like as a special badge for being a good sport about it...

Any update on the Gadget? I sear it is a plot by the Gov. to stop our project.

Latest news report mention Chicago mayor wants  US Postal Service to carry guns and USPS wants to get into counter-terrorism duties......

...I believe the USPS is doing a forensic test on it for Chicken Blood.........
