Well i have just finished the central section and probably the most challenging part of the bridge. Will wait for the glue to dry and then get some pics. It is huge, its almost a table on its own!

Not sure how much more work will get done this evening as we have to settle in another foster dog. After chasing the previous one all over north walsham this morning, it was all to clear she wasn't really right for us as she was just too scared of us . So this afternoon we got a new foster furbaby in and he is settling in fine. In between those events, i got a good chunk of work done on the central section of the bridge. Only need to complete the walkways and a couple of other small bits to actually finish the bridge construction off. Here's some pics to enjoy! The bridge in all its unpainted wooden glory. The gubbinz at the heart of the raising and lowering of the bridge Now those pics don't truly convey the scale of this beast. So here's a couple of scale/barry shots with sgt.noname of the 42nd Octavian Rifles after taking the bridge single handedly from no one in particular. Well there you have it, works progressing well. I would just like to publicly say a big thank you to both Warlord Games and Sarissa Precision. There has been a initial problem with the kits missing a couple of 'Bracers' for a gantry. I had discovered this last night and contacted them. It has become apparent that this issue had already come to their attention and they have already made moves to rectify the issue and send out the replacement parts for the affected kits. Not only is this a more than satisfactory remedy, it also displays a level of forward thinking and pro-active problem solving, that i have not seen from other well known companies. So good sirs, I salute you.

If you'll look in the upper right corner of posts, there's a thumbs up icon. You can "like" posts just like on facebook. But yeah, I do miss the old smileys too.

No progress tonight Long 9 hour shift at work, dogs walked, shopping and pride of britain awards all put pay to it. Back to the grindstone tomorrow though, with any luck it can be finished off. Got the missing pieces coming by registered courier delivery and not too much to do. Just walkways alongside the bridge, small room on gantry and a few detail add ons.

As the glider banked hard to the left, skimming over the trees. The pilot turned to Mjr.Howard and informed him 'Bridge in sight sir'. So after 3 days of building it is done. Pegasus Bridge is assembled and ready for paint. I have had highs and lows building this mammoth kit. I have turned the air blue in frustration. But it's all been worth the effort. For once i am not gonna blather on. So enjoy the pics. Next up for me...putting paint onto the beast.
