After some delay(I had been building a model, and got stuck after I found that the seats in the Jeep were too visible to just go with what was supplied in the kit, so I ordered a Jeep model in a larger scale, and have found that building my Fleep in 135 scale is much more comfortable than struggling with 1/72), I'm back at my Fleep project hammer and tongs.
What I'd like to do is take pics of it at various stages of construction(I'm not going to give a blow-by-blow montage of the model of the Jeep, however), but am not quite sure how to go about it.
Any suggestions?

Do you want to do it as a build blog or just a single post with pictures of the construction at various stages right through to completion?

As a post with pics and commentary, would be my best guess.
I'm always open to suggestions.

If you're just going to do a single post, then you need to keep the build sequence short and to the point. Each picture should be accompanied by a few concise sentences to a full paragraph. I would suggest you start with the kit, then a picture or two of the cockpit, Fuselage joined with everything added, painted, decaled, Weathered, and done. Then your appraisal of the build and the finished aircraft.
Build issues and problems should go along with appropriate pictures. I mostly do build blogs so I can offer more details of the build, but that's just me. Many other members go the single post route. Just spend some time reading through those type of posts in the forums, and you'll get a good feel for it.
