Group-build thoughts?
Posted by Railfan 233 on Thursday, June 10, 2010 8:38 PM

 This is something I asked a few days ago, but I posted it in the wrong area in the forum. Here it is, and hopefully I can get more of a responce.

                            -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------                           

 I am thinking about throwing a group-build out in the next week or so, to celibrate the kick-off of my Summer vacation (it started Wednesday). Here's a list of what I'm thinking of. Please reply and tell me if you like one of these. I will be looking foward to seeing what you think.

First big ideas:

  1. old,rusty car build (The Rusty Bumpers in Summer build of 2010) based on what has been seen on the internet (all car models apply)
  2. Free paper model build (The "While The Glue Dries" build of 2010) Build the model during "down-time" from waiting for the glue to dry. (All FREE paper models apply.) All materials needed is cardstock (from Wal-Mart), white glue (any self-respecting dollar store or pharmacy) and a hobbyknife with a fresh #11 balde (everyone has one)

 (see my explanation on paper models here :: /forums/p/128932/1303383.aspx#1303383   )

There are my ideas. Let's see which one gets more responce, and that one will be the one I will use for my first time hosting a Group-Build.

I'll look foward to hosting this build.    -Railfan 233

While cars and paper models aren't my thing, I have an idea for a group build; 'My first group build, group build'.  I know the title needs work but having a group build for people that have never done a group build could be interesting.

 Eric, I think you are on to something.

 I'm going to give that some good thinking over, as I finnish up my first group build (Red, White, and YOU! No Made in China or Japan)  While it won't be my first build, it will be my first time as a host.

Why don't I get the good ideas first? [mabe it's because my brain is going too fast, like NASCAR V.S.a snail]

You know what, I think I will do that. I'll do the offitial post in a few days. (all model subjects open, as long as it's your first group build)
