New build digs are finally squared away , everythings where it shouldn't be making it a beeotch to find things .

First the new room ...... finished a few weeks ago .













Soooooo , now I'm gonna build a North Arfica thingie , no real plans just build and let it evolve .
I'm starting with MB's BMW R75 .
Kit could use a lot less flash ESPECIALLY ON THE SPOKES !!!



Lucky for me I've got MB's kit #MB3548F "German motorcycle troops on the move" , which comes with pe spokes .
I'd also like to thank MB for making me get the two kits so I could make one bike :bang head

After some necessary clean up and adding a brass tube thingie from some jewelry stuff I have , I am pleased with the results .
 
For some reason I can't make this all in one post , in the posting box I get just so far down and it keeps bringing me back to the top of my post so I can't add more pics or writing .

Ok like I said , I'm pleased with the results .





Other stuff to be included .







There will most likely be alot more of this and that , I've got alot of Africa stuff , just gotta come up with a layout , ........ something will come to me as I'm buildin .
 
Thanks Mike , but with the way I build , campaigns just never work out .
It's like a Baby Ruth in the bottom of the golf clubs swimming pool it tastes good , ..... but everyone thinks it's a turd .
Sorry , I'm watching Caddyshack while I'm buildin here ........


Hey brother , how's the eye , .......... not the brown one .

Glenn, try Firefox for a browser. Think IE has some sort of issue posting stuff.

You should contact Alexander at Master Box about the flash problem. Tell him what you've done to correct it. I wouldn't be surprised if they offer you either other parts or replacement PE spokes. Master Box is excellent at trying to keep customers satisfied.

Thanks guys , and thanks Peter , I've got 3 MB kits with motorcycles , the BMW R75 , German motorcycle troops on the move and the German motorcycle repair dudes , all 3 kits have the same motorcycle sprue and all have horrible flash between the spokes .
They can be cleaned up carefully , but for me a waste of time when I could be buildin the dam things .

Any idea how I can contact them ? ....... gotta go to work today but then I've got 6 days off , beer , Bacardi and vanilla Coke , bowl games , buildin !!!
