Re: ** Build of the Month Contest - May 2016 ** - Winner - romulus22
Well from the looks of it so far, I don't have a prayer but here is my 10T anyways. I had a lot of fun building it and in my book the fun is what it's all about, Most importantly I learned a lot doing this build and am slowly getting better, maybe someday I can get to a point closer to the rest of you here, but I'm patient and will take it one build at a time.
