Part 1.

Ok, found a subject so time to start my first build.
Not gone tell you what it's going to be, see if you can guess... :dance:

I started by opening the sprue bag, to see what's inside.
1 egg, 2 eggs, 3 eggs...... ok, bunch off eggs... :think:
And, wait.... no decals and no instructions... This is going to be a challenge... :wtf:

So, I looked up some pics on the internet and got on with it.
First step was, I cut it in half.
Image
And closed up one piece with some styrene.
Image
Then I cut a cirkel out of some 0.5mm styrene.
Image
And used the hole as a guide for cutting of the top.
Image
Makes it much easier to make a straight cut, and, off course, you can use the cut out as a lid.
Image
The marker is there, because I needed the cap...
And I needed it for this..
Image
Added a ring from the spares box.
Then I made some supports from, again, some styrene.
Image
Can you guess what it is yet? No? :nena:

Ok, I'll add a litle more detail first.
A plate with some pipes.
Image
Which goes here.
Image
And a bracket over it.
Image
And some bigger pipes.
Image
And, yes you have guest it, some more pipes and something of a electric box.
Image
Sorry, it all sits a bit crooked. That's because most off it is not glued on yet.

And this is what I got done up to now, next time some more difficult steps... :shifty:

I've got to admit, I can't quite figure out what it is. The figure is one of those images you can't place, but is so familiar.
