hallelujah! - today i finally finished the painting of herman*

[*terms and conditions apply. other monotonous activities are available. further touchups may be necessary]


now, i dinnae want to encourage pedantry, but the quick-witted amongst you may have noticed that there’s a thin strip of white down the middle of the roof, which still wants painting. this strip bears mute testimony to the length [or shortness] of my arms combined with the feeble altitude achieved with my crappy, rickety B&Q stepladder and shall be taken care of by attaching a longer handle to a paintbrush - just as soon as this lot is dry.

but, as near as dammit, he’s finally all painted up.

ta-da!


so, let’s see how far we’ve come:

before and after


next job: sorting out the windscreen wipers. and then i can move onto the welding of the floor - after which the camper conversion proper begins!

the adventures of a poor, dilapidated old VW LT35 van, who dreams of one day becoming a luxurious camper.
