I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Depending on when it's on I'll be up for it
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Well since it's the only thing that gets me to DEFINATELY finish a model, I'd have to say I'm in (otherwise I might not get anything built this year the way things are going....)

Do it.    :thumbsup:

There are a couple of thingys in the house that could be turned into a whiffed thingy pretty decently.     Was in the middle of a gnarly business purchase last year and genuinely felt left out. 


The creativity index is off the flippin' map.    :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Dear Sirs...

I'll be happy to join this beautiful whiff-land tradition (as I say, adopt the local culture  :lol:). But I have one question. Can we use some wreck of old models to turn them into great whiff ? Or might we use only models from the box ?

-all kinds of things.

Yay for One Week GB!  :party:

I'd also vote for the "Whiff what you want within a week" option. No special themes necessary.

Anything later than third week of July would be fine with me (semester break! Yay!).


Where is Nev? Anyone heard of him? He also ceased posting on ARC.
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

arkon

i  would like to count my self in ,but what i have in mind means tearing down one build simply for the wings and starting fresh with the rest of it . am i still in?

Arkon, Slerski, you can use use parts of old models as raw materials, that's encouraged!  It doesn't have to be out of the box, but that's fine too.  If you're daredevil enough to do a complete scratchbuild, we'd like to see it!

The only real things that are 'out' are started & refurbished builds, i.e. a project that you're half way through, or simply re-painting an old model.  Using an old model as part of a kit bash to create something entirely new is fine.

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Are you under the strange misapprehension that I would choose not to p[articipate in the 1Wgb...?
I even have a little diorama idea which I think would fit perfectly.

And when I say little, I MEAN little!
There are no good kits, bad kits or grail kits, just kitbash fodder.

We need a date set so I can prepare. 
Just remember that the US Nats is the first week of August (still an off chance I may get to go but not looking good).
