Getting Beastlier Like

It's All Inspiration - Dah-link
Well, I realise that we're feeding on scraps at the moment, but I'm pleased to say that the daughter's Lightning Dragon took another tumble forward, and now not only boasts a bunch of funny looking lightning bolts, but also has some groovily berouged blobby spot things too.

These have been haphazardly hacked from some vinyl, fixed and then lacquered so that they will stick around a while, which is all pretty cool methinks.

Hopefully today or tomorrow will bring all the parts, so that we can start putting it together, with the only really tricky bit left to face being that we're gilding the scratchplate with 24 karat leaf.

So basically it is going to be tight, but I think we'll have it together by next Monday which is the main thing.

This may seem to be going on a bit, but that is despite the fact that I'm not doing any of it rather than because of it. Anyway, it's always a slow start, stagnatifying in the middle followed by a flourish of a frenetic-yet-oddly-kinetic ending, lets face it.

I am rather intrigued to see how it plays, mainly as I know the scale length is going to be out of whack, but for her to start learning a few chords on I'm hoping it'll be OK. And when she's older and all that, if she is still bothered we can always fit a full-size neck and Bob's your Anty, if you have a family like mine.

So in summary, waiting for the post, as per.


La la laaaa
