Well here he is at last. Frederick was finished at 10.00pm today and I've spent the last couple of hours on his base!  A couple of set backs here and there which pushed the time table back a little but now he's done and dusted (literally in the case of his feet!)  As usual the diary is still behind the build so that will be continuing for a few weeks more but without more ado, I hope you will enjoy these finished build pics as much as I felt relief at completing him on time!!

Outstanding work Robin and very much worth the wait to see ol' Freddie in all of his fighting glory!!   
You must be well chuffed with the result and also to have made the deadline? I am chuffed for you that you did it in time and I'm keen to see the rest of your diary, but what about 2017, do you have something equally enthralling lined up for us?
Very well done Robin, all the best in the competition, good luck and thanks for an awesome diary!!
