Hello all,
Just to bring anyone up to speed that has not read the basic tools and must have post, here goes. As a result of the lists generated on that thread, some of us thought it would be fun to build a model with a minimum of tools and supplies. Then post pictures of said model on a specific date finished or not. There needs to be a majority vote on the model, scale, tools and deadline. ALL modelers are welcome. I will give my first pick for certain categories (i.e. kit, scale, subject) and second or third choices as well.
Remember: Your choices need to be basic. Simple kits that are readily available to all and cheap! So don't yawn at my dull choices please.
Subject: Modern day fighter (single or twin engine)
WW2 fighter (single or twin)
WW2 tank (please excuse my ignorance of this one)
Scale: 1/48
1/72
1/35
Tools: exacto knife
tweezers
sand paper
cuticle file/emery board
liquid cement or tube glue
CA glue
filler
paint brushes
spray can or bottled paint
Deadline:30 days from starting date, I'm thinking 02/07/03 as a starting date.
Other: keep cost of kits under $30 US. Straight from the box build, no aftermarket stuff. If it doesn't come in the box, then it doesn't go on the kit.
Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Darren
