Awesome work guys! 

Still waiting for a couple of late comers to report in but I've updated the front page with the completed builds.

I'm thinking that if I host another one in February/March that I would make it a week long build.  Might attract more participants that way.  What do you guys think?  I would leave the Novemeber one as a weekend build.

I still like the madness of the weekend madness theme, some people even manage to pull it off. I'll have pics and notes for my late, but completed, Hunter sometime this week.

sounds like a good idea.. maybe call it "WEEK'end Madness.. ( emphasis on the week )... ??..

Thankyou, centhot, p38jl, dupes & vetteman.

Its you guys that are helping me improve my skills, I've Iearnt a bunch.

Im working on a Helldiver now, I've only got two models left in the stash.

The week-long GB sounds like a good idea.  The pacing for a lot of projects would work well.  Most of us could start on a Sunday with construction and throughout the week allow for painting with overnight to let paint cure, then weathering and final touch-ups Friday night into Saturday.

A good combination of challenging time limit with enough time to add more detail.

Well, I'm still working away. I've had 4 hours on Friday, 6 on Saturday and 4 on Sunday. So I'm giving myself till the end of the evening Tuesday.

Like the 48 hour deadline, as Vance says,  keep the madness in it !  within a 7 -9 day time frame ....

I think you all put the "MAD" in Madness!

Great jobs everyone! I wish I could build half as good in twice the time!

I just realized that I never did post my final pics!

Next time I'll think about the kit a little more before jumping on one. The Airfix kit was indeed simple as far as parts count goes, but that black plastic is HORRIBLE to deal with, almost like pvc plumbing pipe. Glue took forever to set & it was really hard to sand. And a 3-colour camo job was just setting me up to go long I suppose. Anyway, warts & all, here's the final product. Certainly not on my top-ten of all time list, but good enough to keep on an office shelf I suppose! (Lost track of the final # of hours - worked on it Saturday, Sunday then two one-hour sessions later in that week... "long weekend madness I suppose  )

yep, I even used the original kit decals. I trimmed away as much carrier film as possible in case it yellowed...

well, next time I'd just leave the canopy clear instead of trying the "painted from the inside" route.

the tail end... of course it's just hollow back there!

Welll, the final product looks like a Hunter (mostly!) and I have nothing else in my collection with Swiss crosses on it, so I guess it's a keeper!
