As for this Lanc promise Medsman, It will take 48hrs just to mask the bleeding canopy. Youll need some serious badgering to keep you going

Ok now we need to think about this last comment by Frank.  Cool voice of reason? One who's not completely off their rocker?  and this is referencing Billy Bondo?  Heck I need a shot after considering that!

Sir Bill of Bondoness I shall do my best to use the same finess, care and quality that I normally expend.  Don't drink much. Back hurts too much for sex. The only prayer I do  on a daily basis is to do his will. Figured that's about all that will come of it anyways and I build models cuz as a child I thought war was horrible and if they could use toys to fight em no one would have to leave home and get hurt or killed.  Pretty odd that a kid with that wish spent 21 years active duty eh?

 Anyways 48 hours is the equivilant of six 8 hour work days.  So If you spend 8 hours a day on a model for 6 days it doesn't sound so bad does it. Besides your missing the most important part. Can I really do it?  A challenge self imposed and besides I don't want to spend a bunch of doe on extras on the Grand Slam. Saving that for the other version!

 Now  are we going to challenge ourselves and rise to the occassion! Push the limits! Learn and improve our skills with the limited time we have?  Or take the safe bet. Oh sure you may die an old man in your bed being a cautious sort but will you have really lived. Life was meant to be exciting and dynamic! That is what makes it so precious. The mundane insults my spirit and aggrivates me except on those few occassions I can enjoy it as a peaceful moment.

 Besides what if it takes 49 hours or gosh even 50?  Would it make anyone less of a friend here?  Heck I don't think any less of anyone who never finished in reality but rejoice in the attempts and marvel at those that have done such great work using imagination and resourcefulness not so much the big $ extra parts!  That is what I personally like to see and strive to emmulate!

Now Frank gosh dern it entertain me!  Ya think we are gonna live forever!

 Get him Buddy!  Some one give Bondo a shot!  Stark Raving nutcases?!?  I'll take that to being what these so called sane people have for a soul anyday thankyou very much!

A fine example of how speed does indeed count Dave!

Oh yeah Dave! Go get the ceremonial beating stick!

You'll have to ask her for it... and I suggest you ask her very nicely! 

Dave,

Meant to say this Sunday.  The 1/144th AC-130H is a fairly simple kit with a simple paint scheme.  Be about the size of a 1/72 medium bomber.  Now having said that, the Fort Worth Alliance Airshow is at the end of the month and the C-17 Demo Crew is scheduled to perform.  That may change my mind.  If I go C-17, will have to get a bigger display area.

Frank,

Don't let Mac and the other boys get to you.  You just go ahead and build your little six piece model, it'll be alright.

Boo, you guys are brutal!

Not only do you speak of that Holy Grail of model kits to me, the sumptuous Tamiya 1/48 Bf-109E, but you then Triple Dog Dare me.  Oh, that's low...

Ok the line has been drawn in the sand!  The gaunlet thrown down so to speak!  As a matter of honor I owe it to myself to raise the bar and build a Tamia 1/48 109 E!  With extras!!!!!!!!

I Triple Dog Dare You

With that 109 with extras you are going to build, I feel I have to one up you again!  I am going to add all of the Eduard photo etch bits to my Lanc, as well as the Belcher Bits resin engine nacelles.  Then, I am going to build a V-2 like yours, a 1/32 Academy Hornet, and a 1/32 ME-262 to finish the weekend off!

That was the meds talking er yep that was even a wee bit much for Guy to attempt there!

What was your excuse? I am serious about the landcaster. I have that Grand Slam one I want to do oob!  But all the resin and PE will have to wait until we can concentrate on the BIII. How cool!

Likewise, can't believe the bottom of your earlier message was cut off?

I saw that - I figured it was a "Kiddie " menu where they get the crayons to color it while you wait for your meal.

LMFAO,   Now thats funny.

Aaron, if your doing a Lanc in 48 hrs, i want some of the pills your on.

AAACK!  How did that Ventura get in there?  I don't have the skills to pull that off my friend.  And, a 1/48 Tamiya Lancaster, IN 48 HOURS?!?!?!?!?!  Oh, boy... the Sarge has really slipped a gear this time.  STOP TAKING ALL OF THOSE PILLS!!!  Thanks for the encouragement, now I gotta re-think my build again, as I fear that unless I come up with something worthy; something will show up in the mail for me to build that will take me 48 months! A 1/48 Lancaster... SHEEESH!  You really are off your rocker!

Besides Dave it was a done deal Frank came around and found something suitable I have no idea whry the bottom of his message was cut off?

sfcmac wrote:

Dave why have you not added my Tamiya Landcaster to the front page? Do you not believe me? You should know better than that!

I'm waiting to see what happens when the meds wear off!

sfcmac wrote:

Perhaps one of these! ? Even says Snap and Play!

Nah, looks like too many parts.

Now that was good!  Comparing the directions for my upcoming build as a "kiddie coloring menu".

Alright boys, leave poor Frank alone.  That V-2 looks like a big giant spinner and you know how Frank loves his spinners.  You are perfectly welcome to enter the V-2 if you want Frank.  Don't let those other two Plonkers tell you otherwise.

Thanks Dave, I guess it's not all your fault today.  Glad to see someone missed the memo about "POFD".

Aaron- You make Frankie scared!   I know you're serious, whattcha gonna build after that one?  A V-2?  Then a 109?  And a 262 as a grand finale?

Daywalker wrote: Dave- OK, I looked at my 109 and I am thinking I'll never finish that one in 48 hours! Seeing as how I built the 1/48 V-1 for the first 48 hour GB, this time I will build the Pegasus 1/48 V-2.  Can you update my build please? Hmmph!!!  Any excuse not to build in divine scale eh Frank!

 Well look at that! Calling us PLonkers when he started the whole thing! Once again we know who is at fault here don't we?

Karl that was great! A 262 V@ Mistel model! Awesome!

 I am good the national Pick on Frank day was yesterday!  Must find a new victim. Don't want to get too much of a good thing going there do we.  That V-2 does build into a good looking model.

Might try one myself....   Dave why have you not added my Tamiya Landcaster to the front page? Do you not believe me? You should know better than that!

Plonkers ?  What two Plonkers are you talking about ?

Hey Guy did you happen to notice what the 262 was sitting on?

Aaron, see the 262 GB thread.

Karl

 Hey Guy did you happen to notice what the 262 was sitting on?

 Never a dull moment Fupes!  I am awake and on the coffee!  Man those or some odd pain pills for the back.  Must work though look how quick they cured Elvis and Micheal Jackson!

 Hmmm did I say I was doing a Lancaster?  Well it was a surprise but Dave got FRAnk all worked up so I spilled the beans.

Frank?  No hard feelings I hope.  Glad to see your putting more thought into it though from the looks of it more felt the same way but I was the only one under the influence enough to rant!

 Perhaps one of these! ?

Even says Snap and Play!

I know that your a lover of all things WW1, so why not join me and do a weekender. Im doing the Alby. Should be a laugh LOL

A 1/48 Lancaster...

SHEEESH! 

You really are off your rocker!

I remember this build,

that was back in the day when Frank was allowed to play with us in the RA GB. Oh, what fun times, aaahhh.

As for your build Aaronster, why not go with the same as Frank. 4 bits and some dodgy transfers, Youll probably finish it in some Zen manner...Open the box and itll be completed. At least it will seem like that with all the pills your on.

You do realise that the last 6 weeks have all been a dream!. Like old Bobbys shower scene in Dallas. Your goiung to come too and there will be no Italian cruiser, or submarine, or 262. And youve probably wet the bed. Or was that me? Can never tell. Oh and why am i here on the pc and not building the bent winged millstone. These quwestions and many more will be answered soon......probably by Bondo, in his own inimitable fashion.

...Guy

 Frankkkkkkkkkk!  I hear ya! I know your in there!!!!!!!

 I'll have you know I was the guy who knocked this off!

I aint skerd!  Come on I dare ya!

 Ok now that I got that off me chesty chest!  I noticed I have no subject?  Maybe one of those pre painted kits that use 3 screws to put together? Hmmmmmm  Frank wake up I know your not sleeping!!!!! Your tossing and turning sweating out the clock as this GB gets ever so much closer!!!!   I tell you what you got me so worked up I am going to do something really crazy for this now!  Really different! Dave sign me up for a 1/48 Tamiya Grand Slam Bomber!

 A snap together rocket?  Ok? If you must?

sounds safe . Heck I thought it was 13-15 OCT I got a whole month to plan this out!

Daywalker:  1/48 Pegasus V-2 Rocket [(-D]

Oh golly there is like maybe what 6 parts to it?  Oh I am busting a gut!!!!!!!

Perhaps I am being a bit harsh though.  Let me think about Franks skill level? Perhaps that is a reasonable build?  Lets me see Frank makes models like what? Like these?

and leaves people looking like this?

So I have to ask myself again? Am I being harsh? Looking above I see some award winning stuff and don't get me going on the tanks and other stuff Frank can do and has done.

So not harsh! Tough love! I say!  Push yourself! Take a jump into the darkness and know that all of us laugh because a bad build by Frank is probably still 300% better than what I could come up with!

 To you Frank! Don't fret! Dave will let you have the V-2 as your second build during the same 48 hrs! Now take off those tight dungeries and let em hang mister!

Hey do you remember if I was supposed to take the red pill or the green and blue one tonight?
