Group build title will be s*d it, that will do. Theme will be to dig out the worst fitting kit you have, or purchase a reknowned kit for being as such, and just glue it together. No putty, no sanding and if at all possible, no clamps/tape to hold it in place. Then paint it with the worst to use paint you have, and I know we have aĺl got them, and with the nastiest paint brush that should have been either binned, or sacrificed to the dry brushing demons years ago. In a nut shell, a lot like my builds have been turning out of recent :banghead:  ;D

Hehehehe, I've got LOADS of kits in The Loft that will fit that category!  ;D
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! :)

I'm feeling quite depressed now that I done have any real crap kits at all because this sounds like a great amount of fun 😁
Least I've got plenty of knackered paint brushes 😆
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Basically a crude but not so effective group build LOL
Remember, if the reality police ask you haven't seen us in ages!

 ;D  From what I remember they were actually good fitting kits, easy for kids. But accuracy, OMG THE ACCURACY!  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:

Having tried building a few of the Mach2 kits, I can't afford the high prices anymore.
