Cool T800 Cardboard Mock-up

So I decided that I was going to build a 2013 T800 the other day. I figured that cereal boxes would be a good practice material. I was going to use tape to hold it all together till I found the hot glue gun....

Couple hours and burns later this is what I got

Its of course not square and not smooth, but whatever. Thanks for looking

Thanks. The hardest part was getting the pieces square as you fuse them together. I decided that for all the decals in the king hauler cab I am going to cut them out and then position them into the scratch built cab or something like that. I have also built a couple headache racks but I just need the frame so I can get the mounting points etc. Maybe Santa will help with that!
