Blitzbau X Rules, Sign-Up, and Chat

That would be great, Splash. The Spit is a very good kit and wonderful blitzer. That Fokker was a Spitfire.

Well somebody would have said it, right?

I will tell you if it's a Fokker once I have built it

I have that very ME 262 in my stash and that blitz by Flakmonkey is unreal. I have also heard that the kit is something of a devil and to see one built in 24 hours and to that standard is quite something.

[flakmonkey]

To be fair, the poor old Trimaster/ DML kit gets a bad rap. There are very few gotchas lying in wait and I had the advantage of having built quite a few of them over the years. I prefer them to the Tamiya 262 from a builder's point of view.

Just a reminder folks. Please make your comments on the builders thread and not in the Gallery. That way we have a nice tidy gallery for future references.

Cheers everyone.

OK. I was looking for something totally non model related and a Matchbox Vickers Wellesley fell off a box right in front of me and landed on my foot. Not sure about this karma thing but I've now got my kit to build.

All the best.

I can relate to this, I was searching for my second Revell Lanc kit to do some comparing ( see the build thread here :http://uamf.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2758 ), and this ( along with an Airfix VC 10 literally fell on my head )



So I've got my build for this Blitz, I was going to do it today , but it's 30 degrees and sunny here in Merimbula, so the kids have ( rightfully) demanded beach time, so it's out with the boogie boards and off we go. Hopefully it will rain next week-end !

Looks like we just hit peak weekend.

[jssel]

I'd like to find a day to do another. I'm looking.

Seven completed with one very close to done. Fantastic.

[theconfidencestoat]

Yeah - I enjoyed this so much I'm thinking of doing another...

[jssel]

Couple of very busy days here. Looks like everyone is having a great time. I know I am.

Still looking over the calender for another prospective date.

[jssel]

A new title for this Blitzbau maybe. "Facebook meets Blitzbau X". What a hoot.

[jssel]

Titan goes for the Quadathelete. I feel like such a slacker.

[flakmonkey]

This might be the best Blitzbau we've had up to now, it's certainly one of the busiest. Looks like everybody has brought their A game to this one.

[jssel]

We are at 14 for 14 guys. Extreme well done. I am still counting on one more for myself with just under two weeks to go.

[Titan]

Oh dear looks like I have started another PMModel kit....(must resist, must resist) but don't blink or else you'll miss it.

18 for 18 with 4 more potentials on the 22nd.

This Blitz is gonzo for sure, dudes.
