I'm not completely done with the PBR Mark II. I just thought I'd post a couple pics of what I have done so far.

AWESOME!!!

Kevrut,
Who do I gotta beg barrow or steal from to get a boat like that??
(I know it ain't gonna be 21st C

)

Would you ever consider building another one??

Thanks man, actually I found the boat hull at a Good Will store. It's one of those nick-nack things. I built the deck out of foamboard. I used wooden dowells to make the canopy stand, and an old T-shirt for the canvas (Used hotglue for the canvas.). I used cardboard for the wheelhouse and engine cover. I robbed a few .50's off of a couple command cars for the turrets. I made the shields on the gun mounts out of cardboard. I spray painted it with paint from WM. I found a orange sherbet push-up at my daughter's house and used it to make the communications thingy on the front. I still have a few things to do to it before I'm completely done.
The watch towers are made of dowells and flat sticks from WM. The tent is a M*A*S*H tent. LOL. The stretchers are made of dowells and the same T-shirt.
Thanks for the complements and I'll post more this summer. I have a lot of other subjects to post. Kevin.

That PIBBER rocks! Show us your other stuff when you get em done! What part of WM did you find the sticks/dowels? In the crafts area?

To Mig29k:
The wooden dowells and "Skinny sticks" are in the craft section of WM.
Thanks, Kevin.
