Thanks for the encouragement chaps  :)

Well, it's done (sans paint of course) and I'll post up pictures tomorrow before putting a coat of primer on it...

Then it's down to the long job of painting it  ::) lol

cheers

Smart arse  ;D

'Tis now the first and as promised, the photos of the final constructed tower. It now has a coat of black primer on it and it will get paint on it soon enough  ;)




Again, not the best images but photographing something this big is difficult at best. When the weather clears up tomorrow (hopefully) I'll go out in the garden and take some out there with the primer coat on  :)

cheers

Aha! The first bit of paint is on! The wood is complete and the primer for the main stucco is on as well...

 ;D To those of little faith (me included  lol )





Still a fair amount to do but I'm enjoying it at the moment. I'll be happy when it comes to the weathering stage as I know that'll be near the finish.

cheers

Won't pass as Elephant & Castle either but who cares, 'tis a wondrous sight and the best use of 2 dozen loo rolls  that I've seen in a dog's age.
