Spring modeling, I usually don't model much this time of year because I don't like being stuck in my basement. I cleaned out my garage and made a make shift table and for the past few weeks I have been grilling, drinking, and modeling with in all most arm's reach and enjoying it.
So I have to admit after seeing Ian build that Mini I had to give this kit a shot, I did not want to post anything until a had some progress and start a thread with out keeping up with or updating. Then while lurking on the forum I saw that Trdnick also started a thread and he is also doing a great job. I really like following both builds and have learned from both and have gotten great idea's from both Ian and Trdnick.
I am actually building two and here is some picks of what I have acompished with the first mini and once again thank's two you guys as if it weren't for seeing this kit on this forum I would have never picked these model's up.. Awesome Job!!
Here is picks of my build and the other Tamiya cooper that I am hoping to put in some sort of diorama. I have to order some more weathering products and have not weatherd anything yet.
Hope the forum has room for more mini pic's.. Here is my work in progress.


After being coated with Future





Lost the left Gauge sticker, fell off the exacto and just to small to find. Asked my wife to help and I quote her words, "are you kidding me"..

My next build to go along with this one in a diorama..

New make shift garage work area.
