Best of luck! There's not many of us Lobsters in this part of the world- UK and Ireland, so great to see the pot expand!

Glad to see you cleared after your eventful build! Well deserved!!

Wish I could comment on the final build, but due to the UK/imgur drama none of your pics will show for me.

So,....as I posted in the fb build group. Things were going great, weather had played ball, painting went off without a hitch. Was excited to get the super duper high gloss 2k clear on. It was an absolute disaster!!!

Conviced the better half to help me kit up for a quick look to see if the kit and placement was looking ok:

Although it's technicallly incorrect, I chose to cut off the tabs at the bottom of the ab in favour of wearing the skirt under the armour. Just seems more secure that way,rather than ...

Wow, I am TERRIBLE at updating this! Almost as bad as I am at taking pics to document the build!

Anyways, EVERYTHING has been trimmed and sanded apart from the ab boxes and shin kit kats.
