Any love for Dino Kings cabs - rumour mill tells me 20 or so are on the horizion - not sure if they'll be coming my way though..
I have 2 in progress, I'd easily think of ideas for another 5 or 6, so plenty of love for them here ;)

:problem:

I had to stop work over the winter which is why no progress was made then, the previous update was a couple of weeks ago which was the first weekend I could actually get out to do some work! :P

Next thing do do it the front plastics but I can't sort them out until I have the new speakers. They're being delivered on Friday so I'll be able to carry on then.

Besides, I've been too busy playing with my stiffened shaft all week :fastlove: ...but that's for another thread.

RE : Shaft - or as hard and shiny! ;)

Here's a very ghetto version of my Dino so far.

Things to do -

Make a clear 'sandwich' control panel to fill with some ghey Driller pink n baby blue artwork
Get marquee stickers and a 'moves' strip printed up
Make a wooden 'stack' shelf for all 3 Driller games and Star Trigon :awe:
Side art stickers
Polish a small scritch out of the middle of the monitor bezel :-x

Been busy doing 101 other things but I got the speaker mounts finished this morning, one for each cab:

The original single speaker mount is at the top for reference.

Now that that's done I know where the speaker grill holes need to be so I can get on with the front plastics.
