Title: Ainsty Broken Robot
Post by: aircav on 26 February 2014, 06:58:52 AM: I posted this on my blog & thought that I would share it here.

My 6 year old son, Tom, has just finished this Ainsty Broken Robot.
I helped him with some bits & we talked through what to do & why, but 80% of the work is his.

I must say i'm impressed with the result. Just need to get him painting armies!!

Really nice work there, way better than what I was able to achieve at that age . . .

Good work from dad too. A master and his apprentice eh? 8)
