bit of bodging required



thought i had some Evergreen plastic angle that would do for the crane bit but it turned out way to big so bit of improvising with two slim cocktail sticks and some stretched sprue



see what its like after some primer, if no good then back to the drawing board



as you can see its way too small for my chubby fingers to be accurate, and since its just for set dressing then 'near enough is good enough'

Great work. I'm following closely. I'm sure it will be a good finale.

Yeah,me too....
.... I've always kinda liked these things, very quirky looking/ugly looking... But just something alluring about them!
