You could,and i'd say you'd already have most of the kit's that are required to do the build.
Nothing much is happening with the build at present.I'm rying to get my head around the proper placement of some stuff,the engines being one of those areas.I think i have that bit pretty sussed now after some help.
The main hold up is the armature,it appears the one's that were sent to Jase,Mike and myself have gone walkabout.They haven't landed and it's been more than long enough that even if customs was looking at em they would have cleared by now.So i've given up that they will land and thanks to a bloody good member on this board,i'll be getting a helping hand with another.Infact,this will be spot on as he's doing one for himself also.So no build progress but theres some planning going on behind the scenes.Lighting will be what Doug has shown in his thread,that's mighty impressive the look of that 5W halogen as well as the light it cast's.The colour and brightness look real good to me.
So,i'm keen to get into the build pretty soon,it was sitting for age's as i had no motivation,but it's really given it back to me,these thing's really are bloody cool!
Alright,so about all i've done since i started the build is drill a few holes for the armature,cleaned up the casting's i'm using and robbed the rest outa kit's that i can spare.
This is the first part i've made up and replaced from the kit.
