I ran a similar GB last year around this time and had a lot of fun. The rules are pretty simple and I'll post the rules from the last build below to get you started. We may change some rules once we get people signed up and we all agree on any changes. Check out last year's build which has been resurected by Lewbud. Finished models from that build are on page one. Please let me know if you are interested and I'll add you to the list. I have set the date for November 13-15th but this is still open to negotiation so if you would like to join but can't do that weekend please let me know!!!
Here are the rules:
Open to everyone
Any model type (armor, aircraft, ship, auto, fantasy, figures, etc.)
Any scale
Out of the box or AM - your choice
Cross over builds with other Group Builds are allowed
Must be completely unstarted (sniffing the styrene is okay but no snipping parts off and cleaning them up - if you've previously snipped the parts off the sprue thats okay but as of now no touchy!)
Must post pics at the start of the unbuilt model
Must post pics of the finished model at the deadline - if you don't quite finish by the deadline you Must still post pics of the currrent state of the model at the deadline.
Post as many pics of the progress along the way as you can
Since everyone's schedule and responsibilities differ there is no official start time. However, the build will be limited to 48 hours, preferably over the Friday/Saturday/Sunday of (NOVEMBER 13th to the 15th). So, if you start at 5:00pm on Friday you must finish by 5:00pm on Sunday. If you don't start until 11:00pm on Friday you have until 11:00pm on Sunday.
For those who want to participate but whose weekends don't fall on the traditional Sat-Sun you are welcome to participate on the days that you do have off (eg:Mon.-Tues) just keep to the same time frame (48 hrs) and as close to the designated weekend that you can. Anything outside of the week before or after would not be encouraged.
HAVE FUN!!!
