This has been some time coming.

It was a exercise in rigging and it's finished at last.

Great Gladiator build, Tony. The rigging looks awesome. Was is tough to do?

 

[mossiepilot]

No, just a bit scary and time consuming.

I spent a lot of time either just looking at it or viewing how to's on youtubehno:

Looks great Tony. The rigging would scare me to death as I have ten thumbs when doing that kind of stuff.

What a neat little build Tony. That rigging would scare me to death, I doubt I could even see the thread let alone rig it!

Many moons ago I read the account of the three Gladiators, Faith, Hope and Charity, which was all we had to start with to defend Malta during WW2. Very good read.......

Cheers,
