Ok Ok, so not really Mini Related (but there's a Mini in the Pic so I reckon it's cool :P )

Finally finished the front of my house last night.
Getting inspected today - hopefully I'll be legal then :wink:

Now all I have to do is finish laying the floorboards, concrete and pave the backyard. Lay turf and plant gardens out the back, and BUILD THE BAR!!!!!

Looks like the Mini will be neglected for a couple of months yet :oops:

What?
This one?

Or Back A little further??
Image
NO THAT'S TOO FAR!!!!!!
Image
Getting there
Image
Do you get the idea I wanted the building process documented??

On that, if anyone's good with graphics/animations and has some time on their hands, I have 31 photos taken from almost the same spot that I'd love to animate or make into a time lapse or morph or something if possible!!


Thanks for the comments guys.
There will be beers soon - there's plenty of vacant land to park minis on!!

There will be a BIG house warming when we get more done like my Bar and BBQ areas finished 8)

Very nice house Bob, I the rendering and colours look great. Good to see that the new motor doesn't leak any oil, if it did, there's no way it'd be on the new driveway right? :wink:

Looks great mate, must be good to see that all the effort pays off.
Consult me for some Bar signs when you do the bar!

Chop;
Are you making up some Dukes of Hazzard stickers / billposters to put up on front of Bob's house? It'll be the perfect finishing touch... :wink: :D

Nah, we should go down the Blues Brothers line this time and hang a big neon sign from the front with Bob's Country Bunker like this..........

That's Gold!!!

The Blues Brothers is only my favourite movie of all time!!

I might just have to get a miniature version of that neon made for the top of the bar!!

it is indeed very nice. Download a Gif program (try AdGif) and put all your house pics in it and it will play them one after another in rapid succession, or you could use Windows Movie Maker, just speed each picture up so its only a second long, I think by default the pics are played as 10 second clips. cheers
