Welcome to the Hornet's Nest! This group build is starting up September 19th, just a little over six weeks away! It will run through October 31st, 2011. This GB is open to anyone interested in building an F/A-18 Hornet, and with all of the possibilities in scales, color schemes, and variants- I think we will see many stunning models! Everything from the newest Trumpeter Super Hornets, to the tiny 1/144 Dragon birds is allowed.
Must have fun! This is the most important thing to remember here.
Open to anyone interested, all skill levels and late entries welcome
Any scale, out of the box or as much aftermarket as you want
Previously started builds welcome
Post as many work in progress photos as you want
Any variant, including the F/A-18A, F/A-18B, F/A-18C, F/A-18D, F/A-18E, F/A-18F, and F/A-18G

Here is a link to Wikipedia's entry on the Hornet. I will do some research to see if I can find some good Hornet reference sites. If you know of any, let me know and I would be happy to post them here.
I will host the badges for the duration of the group build, please save them and host them yourself if you would like to keep them. Feel free to grab one now and add it to your signature!
