Quote from: Weaver on June 10, 2023, 10:01:00 AMGlad to hear it, but not (I'll bet) half as glad as you.  :thumbsup:


Sure am, she's sitting here just a few feet away right now, after having had a splendid ham salad (prepared by ME.... ;D ) and seems to be feeling a lot better.

Thanks for the good wishes gentlemen, it helps no end.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

So, the first two completed entries have been posted - both very different, which just goes to show what a diverse and creative set of people we have on the forum.

Well done Tophe and Dizzy, how do you manage to work so fast?

Thank you. Tactical choice of the project and the respective kit! Tank was chosen this time because it was easier to complete in little time (vecause I was not certain how much time I'd have this week at work, two busy/urgent projects plus both weekends mostly blocked) , and it was just an OOB build of a relatively modern kit that would hardly pose major problems and setbacks. However, I did not expect that it would go together THIS fast, including a splinter paint scheme plus weathering - less than 48 hours for the model itself, plus two more days for pics and background. Good prepwork seems to pay out!?

Final lap of this year's one-weeker, everyone.

Great completed entries so far in the completed entries thread.

I'll be locking that thread at the end if the GB so please don't forget to post completed items there if you've not already done so (otherwise they won't feature in the poll, as per the GB rules).

The poll will be ser up either tomorrow or - most likely - Tuesday morning UK time.

OK playmates, will be locking the 'completed entries' thread around 1200 GMT, which should give anyone in Honolulu time to finish and post.
