I think it's the 14th, but if you want to start now that's cool

Actually the 12th is a Saturday and would be better for me as Monday being a work day I would get less done.

I can wait though if everyone prefers the 14th. Pantherman

[TimM63]

Five more days.

Ground Rules:

1. Only use materials provided in the box. (glue, paint, and brushes)
2. Use of primer is allowed
3. Thinning paint with water is allowed.
4. No mixing of paint to changes colors
5. Only one hobby knife may be used
6. No files or any sanding material
7. No decal solutions (water only)
8. No masking
9. No using of any tools to apply glue. (except for the allowed hobby knife)
10. No use of filler or putty

I think that's it. Let's go for it!!

Just so I'm clear, if it ain't in the box you can't use it. Thinking of tape to hold things together as we can't use clamps? It does say tape in the destructions... Pantherman

 

[TimM63]

No tape. Only what's in the box plus water to thin paint and primer.

It's going to be fun....... Pantherman
