Blitzbau XXII *** Complete and Archived ***

Post by jssel »

We are a month away from Blitzbau XXII. The winter Blitz is normally the most active.

Any interest? I will Mod it if no you else is interested.

Looks like you own it Jeff :) although there is still time for a white knight to ride in.

I'm in, I think I know my project, although I have a number, many resin, that are clamoring for attention.

Yeah. It’s a bit early considering the nudge we got in August. Think I have my build selected also. The topic will be Fly by Night.

I have missed out for a while with Blitzbau builds. I will do my best to get the necessary time out for this.

All the best

Well now, I have never tackled one of these so perhaps I should give it a go! I just need to read-up on the rules and the date, oh! and find something suitable to have a crack at.

I'll be taking part. The Blitzbau is one of those occasions where I actually finish something on time. :grin:

Whew! Glad I wasn't the one to ask first (but was close to doing so). ;-) :-D

Just making sure I got the rules correct, it is up to me to determine when I wish to start my 24 hour marathon build? Sounds very interesting. 8-) How does one go about doing this with their significant other around? Bribery? Gift cards? Sleeping pills? ;-)
