Batcave Build Update


Look at all these organised bricks!

I spent all day yesterday doing the Light & Dark Grey so that i have a better idea of what I need off bricklink, I am finished scavenging for parts now so I've already begun the shopping process on bricklink and putting in enquiries for bricks and pieces. Considering the majority of the bricks i've found to build it will come from my collection i've done well.

I'll begin tomorrow by piecing together some of the furniture, i wont be actually building the batcave until those bricklink orders are in, mostly because the specialist archway and plates i need will be in there.

I'm getting rather excited now, and i think Bruce is too! haha.

Unfortunately because of the hold up now waiting on bricklink i really can't go any further. There are some key pieces missing to complete the computer monitor, mainly the notches and handles to prop up the back screen, as well as the translucent green tiles for the screen itself (about 32 of these). As for the main structure I need 9x arch pieces and alot of 1x2 corner bricks to make it sturdy, until i get them theres no point in going any further past this stage.

It was fun to get a little building done even if it was only for a brief amount of time. Bricklink orders have been placed and paid for, all i can do now is be patient. I have purchased the bricks I need all from UK sellers, so if they are about their business and up and at em I should have all of the bricks by the end of next week. I'll update this again when I've got the Preliminary build finished.
