Join in, brother! The more the merrier.

Well, hurricane Beryl has knocked out our power.
"Houston-area power outages grow to over 2.5 million after Hurricane Beryl made landfall"
Do we have a start date in mind?

I had to drive to a store with wifi because I cannot access the internet to check our posts.
We're hoping our power is restored soon.

Thank you.
The weekend sounds good.

GaryG64 said:

Yes, indeed. It's bigger than I thought. It's big enough to put lighting in, but I'm not going to do that.

Nope. I just order some rice lights. So I'm going to attempt lighting the cockpit... maybe.

Thanks, Tim.

My kit arrived today so I can start anytime. I already have the PE set.
This should be a fun build

Well, our neighborhood got power restored, so I'm ready too.

Never mind it's back off again...

The thought has crossed my mind. Lol

Welp, this just showed up. I think I am going to build this Fine Molds Y-Wing and the Bandai Y-Wing in parallel. The Fine Molds version has decals that show wear and tear, in three different schemes. I was going to do custom paint for both kits, but maybe I do this one oob

I think everyone has their kits. If y'all want to start that's fine, I'll catch-up later.
I heard that our power might be restored by tomorrow, Wednesday. We're all hoping it's today.
Right now it's 80° in my house. Yuck!

Houston took a glancing blow from hurricane Beryl, but we got the eastern part of the storm (the dirty side). Lots of wind and of course rain. I heard we could have gotten 5" to 7" of rain.
By looking outside it's as if nothing ever happened. Beryl just moved out within hours of hitting Houston and headed east.
For all y'all in the eastern parts. Stay dry and safe.

I've just caught up with this thread and saw this news. Sorry to hear you've been challenged by the weather Gary. I hope you and yours are safe and the weather is abating.
