Start Sept 10th
End December 31st (happy New Year!)
Remember when your dad would take you to the hobby shop and you would buy a really cool looking kit, not because you had researched for weeks, because the box looked cool. You would buy a tube of glue and if you're lucky, a few paints. You get home and start right away, you build everything first, and paint later. Decals go on a flat surface, the model is finished in one day and it sat proudly on the shelf for all to admire your hard work
I thought about starting this GB for all to remember the good days.

No wait, that's not it.
