"Go ahead and build something, already!"

Post by LyleW »

Here we go. You should be able to add threads with your builds. I'll try to keep up with the entries.

Rules. Follow them or a large, smelly guy with a crooked nose will be by to talk wit chew.

RULES:

THE "GO AHEAD AND BUILD SOMETHING ALEADY" GROUP BUILD

It would be a GB that basically has no rules. That is the only rule.

* Any genre - SciFi, ship, boat, lawnmower, automotive, armor, airplane - civie or military, one wing, two wings, no wings (Helo), trucks, rail, small boats, figures (0-9) and dioramas. Anything

* Any material from belly button lint to resin or left over food in the fridge.

* Any scale. Yes, any scale. from . to really big

* You can use paint, glue - any type, crayons, tape, string and scissors.

* The kit can be in any state - percentage complete that is.

* Here is why. You must build

a brand new, not in the stash kit
a kit from your stash
AND finish two or more kits from your "Shelf of Doom", "Shelf of Shame" or "Shelf of Someday"

Time frame - STARTS Now, ends December 2017 or when the Cubs win another World Series.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I like the "Cubs win another World Series" end date myself... :hmm:

Of course if they actually pull it off again this coming season that puts our end date in October... :headslap:

I thought of that, but figured we'd be okay.

Okay so this is the first time I'm doing a Group Build on this Forums. Do I post everything here or start my own thread to show all my progress?

My apologies for all the questions.

A safety rule then... When the Cubs win a subway series between them and the Sox. Not the Bosox but the Whitesox.

Hi Duke,

I'd go ahead and start your own thread in this GB forum Like Jeeves has done.
