Hi all, it has been a while since i last posted my progress.

Deagostini lost my direct debit details twice, so i ended up cancelling my subscription and getting it from my newsagents but i also had to backorder 10 issues that i was missing.

I am finally all caught up at issue 53.

Everything has been repainted and weathered.

I also filled and filed the powers cable mounting plate, did not like the joint.

The dome is Awesome but because I had repainted the blue parts I had to repaint the blue line round the dome.

A few pics to show where I am upto

That looks excellent Darren, coming on very nicely. Great to see it starting to look like R2. BigGrin

Looking so good, the subtle bit of weathering really adds to the character of R2.
I would never be able to put the parts together without instruction as I would be afraid to knacker it up, so looking at what it should and will look like is a godsend. Nice one BigGrin
If you build it he will come
