A lot

At first I was puzzled by the strange coloured things on his back until I saw the Finding Nemo reference (I’ll have to get off my backside and see it before it finishes in the cinemas here) I like the fact that you have designed it to be made with bits from one set without making it seem compromised. When I saw the image in your post I thought you’d found a good use for part 30382 but not alas!

Your instructions are nice too, I’m not a fan of the white-ing out (is that the right term?) of the pieces from the previous steps but it makes it very clear. I also like the pointers you have made from the sub-assembly boxes to show where they go.

Tim, Thanks for the kind words. When it came to shading the steps (which is a default in LPub), I decided to go ahead and try it. Even this is the first set of instructions that I’ve posted, it is the second that I started working on. My other set (which I hope to post in the next week or so) is much larger, and I would like it to be printable. Because of that, I decided to use the shading so that not as much ink/toner would be used when they were printed. When I moved from that project to Crush, I used some of the same settings. It took me a bit to get the callouts and pointers placed where I wanted, but they do add a nice look to the steps, so it was very much worth it.
