The first two rounds were so much fun, with so many fine builds, and back by popular demand we are doing NMF Round III. So Welcome to one and all.
Rules
Anything finished with foil, paint, or what ever else you use for a natural metal finish. We have been building aircraft, but can you picture a blinged out tank or a DeLorian ? How about a chromed moped ? The model should be at least 50% NMF. Any scale would be fine, and you can use all the aftermarket stuff you would like or build OOB. Cross overs would be fine and partial starts, no more than 30%, and carry overs from the first group will be allowed also. WIP pictures are a must so we can build our skills, and they are losta fun to share. This will be a 1 year long build starting May 2 2011 and ending May 1 2012. So build 1 or 2 or more. And feel free to take a badge when you sign up, gotta give it back if you don't finish though.
The goal of the group is to have fun, build some fine looking models, and to learn something new.
The new group badge is coming soon, ideas for the new one are welcomed
