darthspud

I'm in
Just assembling  all the bits and pieces, paints and decals.
Cleared the bench this past weekend and tidied in preparation.
too old for a paper round, too young for me pensions, dammit, back to work then!

I know there's a pre-positioned thread for finished builds but do we use our own 'blogs' for daily updates on our progress? E.g Librarian's Banana-1WKGB.

Just checking as I suddenly realised how close the start day is.

Scooterman

Tally-ho I'm in.  I could use a quick kill, and I got just the kit and scheme in mind. 

Supertom

I need to take part in these shenanigans. See you guys on Friday!

The usual practice is to start a build thread within the GB board, but if you want to do it on your blog thread I don't se why anyone should object.

Not going to be in, no motivation at the moment  :banghead:

Not going to be in anyway, and never was either.

I just don't 'do' time limited builds, but I'll watch from the sidelines.
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

Like Kit, I've never done rapid modelling  but I'll be fascinated to see what the speed merchants get up to.

My own modelling speed is slower than glaciers and only marginally faster than continental drift.

Still undecided as what I'm going to do. :banghead:  I've still got four on the list, two are neck and neck, one's an outside chance and another is almost out of the running unless I can find sudden inspiration of how to go about a certain part of it, if it does it'll become favourite.

I'm just going to have to take the plunge tomorrow night. :-\
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.

Yes, Dizzy will probably have his done and dusted by Tuesday lunchtime and be working on a few more by the end of the week.  ;D ;) :lol:

The only bit I'm worried about (if I get to completion) is varnishing. I can get the gloss coat on for decalling but I usually leave at least a week for curing before matt varnishing....she'll just have to be shiny ;D.

I'm going to cheat a bit by using acrylics for quick-dry and rattle cans....never used acrylics large scale before but I think it's do-able. It all comes down to the first day....if what I have in mind doesn't meld then I'll probably chuck it. Does Lego count :rolleyes:?

In, and I think I just switched builds from a WWII carrier aircraft to a cold war Fulda Gap type- pending measurements if a certain engine will fit into my dastardly plan- getting the calipers out tonight.
