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? Big Smile [:D]

Hmmph!!!  Any excuse not to build in divine scale eh Frank!  Sad [:(] Wink [;)]

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! Make a Toast [#toast] Don't fret! Dave will let you have the V-2 as your second build during the same 48 hrs! Mischief [:-,] Now take off those tight dungeries and let em hang mister! Censored [censored]Bow [bow]

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

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!Shock [:O]Cool [8D]

 A snap together rocket?  Ok? If you must?

Evil [}:)]Wink [;)] sounds safe . Heck I thought it was 13-15 OCT I got a whole month to plan this out!

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.

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! Dead [xx(]

A 1/48 Lancaster...

SHEEESH! 

You really are off your rocker! Propeller [8-]

 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! Dead [xx(]

 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! Thumbs Up [tup]

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.

 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? Mischief [:-,]

Karl that was great! A 262 V@ Mistel model! Awesome! Laugh [(-D]

 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.... Whistling [:-^]  Dave why have you not added my Tamiya Landcaster to the front page? Do you not believe me? You should know better than that!

What was your excuse? Laugh [(-D] 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!

No Frank, they're all stark raving nutcases. 48 hours is no joke, but here's the rub. it's pathetic to build the kit with any less finess, care or quality than you would normally expend. Speed doesn't count in sex, drinking alcohol, praying and building models.
