Lego 6378 Shell Tank Service

Good morning


This one would be mine 11th set of paper lego that I scratchbuilt.
Took me a year to complete only because there were other more important kits - which I didn't manage to finish.

So getting on with easier target I decided to finish this one.
With paper Lego first thing I do is the most boring and will consuming items - minifigs, wheels, accesories...

Brilliant idea!

Never thought or heard of this. Used to be an avid Lego builder (still have some) but alas it got too expensive for me - especially the Technics!

Thanks a million for kind words.
In work every one consider me to be a lost nut case.
But on a positive side
This paper Lego took off with me few years back when I had found scanned catalogues.
Back then in my youth as Poland was only emerging from communism there was absolutely nothing. Everything you could hope for was a rich uncle in some foreign country.
And then even if you managed to have just the catalogues you were best friend of everybody.
So now every once in a while I made sets that I remembered from staring at those catalogues some 30 years ago...
First ones were hardest as I didn't have any Lego at all - lost the ones from my youth.
Luckily some manuals have 2D drawings of bricks, then it was easier.

Only the minifig is not mine - I found it in the internet but in a larger scale.

THANKS
Generally it's very simple, and even at that, building quality could be much better.
But I rather be making something like that than wasting time watching tv.


Finish is just around the corner
