No More Excuses GB: Part Deux. Closed to New Entries But Finish What You Signed Up For
Posted by macattack80 on Saturday, October 1, 2011 4:12 PM

Welcome to the No More Excuses Group Build: Part 2! 

This Group Build is based on Wyoguy's Group Build from a few years ago with a few changes.  The basis for this Group Build is to finish up the Shelf Queens.

There are plenty of excuses out there on why we don't start or finish projects.  "I ran out of time", "I never built a tank before, I don't know where to start", "I don't like creating ground work", yadda yadda yadda. 

In here, there are No More Excuses!  Let's finish some stuff.

I had the same number of requests for a November start date as I did for a January start date so I split the difference and went with December.  You can enter at any time from now until 12/30/12.

As with all Group Builds there are few rules regarding what projects are allowed.

1) Have fun!

2) Any build that has been started then put away - the "shelf queen" - is in.

3) Anything that wasn't finished for another Group Build will be allowed too - started or not.

4) You can finish a project with a diorama/vignette if the model itself is already completed.

5) You can build a model in a different genre than you are used to.

6) Anything you were planning to overhaul or rebuild is allowed.

7) Any subject in any scale is welcome. 

If you wish to join just post what you plan on finishing and, of course, your excuse.  Be sure to post WIP photos and before and after pics if necessary.

I hope we all clear up our workbenches, finish some models, share and learn new techniques.

Here is the badge in 2 sizes.  Thanks to the real red baron.  If you want to create another badge you are welcome to.  I will add it here so everyone has a few different badges from which to choose. 

 

 

 

So, with all that said......WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE?!

Kevin
