Welcome aboard Steve!  I've got you on the list. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.  I started a new job Tuesday after having not worked in almost eight months.

OK Buddy, the wife picked this one. I'll figure a 48 hour period I can work on it.

 

Happy wife, happy life!

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

Mine will be a Hasegawa F8-E gull gray over white,

It's about 25% done.

 

G,

Sorry while I look forward to the build, it's started which is against the rules.

Ahhhh, the roster grows!  Good to see you all again!  Still feel bad about missing last year.  But seeing that my work is still effected by Covid, I should have lots of time to participate this year.  I intend to set a record number of builds for myself this time, spread among many subjects.  First up will be an AMT Yenko Camaro.

Come one, come all.  We get more participants every year and there is always room for YOU!  You will be amazed at what can be accomplished in just 48 hours.  Take a look at the past years threads for some inspiration.  Challenge yourself and give it a shot.  Our fearless leader Lewbud has yet again cast the gauntlet and offers the chance to achieve greatness.  I can't overstate how much fun this build is.  Hope you join us!

I don't know at kithe I'd build, or if I could even finish it in the allotted time, but I like the idea of the challenge!  I'm in!
