Sounds Like fun!!! Other rhan tonight, is there an offiicial start date? Can’t wait to see the badge. I got all the stuff still. Can’t wait to break out the unthinned Humbrol…
I’d like to get in on this with an old Revell or Monogram Iowa Class BB.I’ve been itching To build one again.I don’t think I have it in me to adhere to the criteria,but would still like to join.
oh i have a great idea for my entry… I have a revell snap tite F14 that my daughter never started. I can snap the parts and re-build, all in one day! And decals are stickers, so i do not even need water
I really like the idea of this GB, I cannot build under the parameters set fourth. I thought the idea over in the depths of my mind and would be too tempted to sand, snip and cut away seams and sprue attachment points.
When I return to the west this summer I will take pictures of some of my saved ‘glue bombs and paint gobs’ of models from when I was young to post.[H]
After reading soome of the posts here I will admit that twisting parts off is something I never did. My dad showed me how to use a hobby knife right from the start. Most of my model had gouged out chunks where the attachment points used to be instead.
Well I dont know about you, my I broke the odd rule when I was a kid, and heaven knows my kids do (is there a cure for that?). So maybe in the spirit of the build some rules need to be broken, bent, stretched, manipulated or whatever.
I’m interested for sure. I’ll have to find a kit to use but that shouldn’t be a problem. I think I have some that I’ve been avoiding since I was modeling with my dad. I’ll see what I can dig up.
OK put me down for a Airfix 1/72 P-40 Kittyhawk. Its minus the pilot which I gave to my 8y/o for one of his builds which kinds suits the spirit of the GB (ie kids trading parts and stuff), Will start and finish soon
