Hey all,
Here at the FineScale Modeler head office, we've resolved to build more models in 2017. To kick it off, the staff are all going to build a model in a month — and we want you to build along with us. The guidelines for this Group Build are simple. Pull a kit from your stash, start it on January 1, and finish it on or before January 31. It can be any subject or kit type, and you can build it any way you want to from out of the box to adding a ton of extra detail. If you are really adventurous, scratchbuild most or all of the model.
Signup is simple: Reply below and tell us what kit you'll be building and what modifications you plan on making.
To kick things off, here's the list from FSM:
